Love the full-skirted Sophie Theallet dress that Michelle Obama wore to Ghana in 2009 (inset)? A similar design can now be purchased at Gap’s newly-launched N.Y.C. concept store (dedicated to CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winners). For the limited-edition pop-up, which also stocks accessories by Monique Pean and menswear by Patrik Ervell, Theallet created a near-copy of Mrs. Obama’s breezy dress—the color of the skirt’s stripes and the lightweight cotton fabric are among the differences from the original—in both white and black for a more accessible $248.  Fans of Theallet’s feminine touches will also appreciate her other wallet-friendly Gap creations: a summer-ready ruffle-front dress ($248), a tie-front blouse ($148) and a tiered skirt ($198).

Rachel Zoe is parlaying her passion for fabulous footwear and friends into a sexy shoe collaboration with Brian Atwood: “Brian’s been one of my best friends for fifteen years!” she told us at last night’s Dinner With a Designer Celebrating Brian Atwood, hosted by InStyle and the CFDA. “We met dancing on a table in Paris when we were both starting out in our careers.” Zoe and Atwood designed an over-the-knee platform boot with chain detail. The black and suede boot ($2,915) hits stores this June and you can expect the boot to be a staple on the red carpet this fall. “Every single one of my clients wear Brian Atwood. He makes the most beautiful shoes. I am his number one cheerleader!”

It’s been a busy year for Ivanka Trump: In addition to pitching in at her father’s world-famous company—and, of course, appearing on his show—the budding accessories mogul has expanded her fine jewelry collection, signed a deal to create a line of shoes and, today, announced plans to collaborate with Mondani on series of handbags that will hit stores next spring. “I just signed a huge handbag deal…very exciting!” Trump tweeted. “Come next spring you can own Ivanka Trump shoes and bags in addition to my jewelry!” But the newlywed doesn’t see fashion, television and even real estate as separate pursuits: ”My overall goal is that every consumer will have the opportunity to grow with the Trump brand, from the purchase of Ivanka Trump shoes and accessories to ultimately staying in Trump hotels, playing our golf courses, and living in our condominium buildings,” she told WWD.
