Sheer Jewelled Gown at KnockOffNightmares/Facebook "Bought this "gown" for a ball and was super excited that it arrived on time because I wasn't expecting it to," remarked April Dempster on Facebook. "But apparently I'm one of the few people who didn't realise the advertised photo was in fact a very expensive bridal gown." The original design by One Day sells for more than $4,100.

4. Mint Illusion Sweetheart Gown

Original dress price: $300 Original created by ABC Fashion Knockoff Acquired at: Beckydress Knockoff Acquired for: $100 Mint green is a rather uncommon choice for prom dresses, but pastel colours have long had a place in the fashion industry. Several consumers have fallen in love with ABC Fashion's $300 design, which promises to accentuate curves and turn heads.

Mint Illusion Sweetheart Gown, @KnockOffNightmares/Facebook Beckydress, a now-defunct website, sold its own version of the dress with little success. While they were able to extract money from naive customers, they delivered something completely different. It's a shapeless blue expanse that leaves much to the imagination.
