There have been many attempts to emulate the dress or pay homage to it as it continues its allure, with Lady Gaga wearing it in 2012, and Maya Jama paying homage to it at the EMA Awards last month

One of my early finds was a button-down, green dress that I thought was a great combination of masculine and feminine
