    A celebrity donning the same outfit as another star has traditionally been considered gauche. These days, though, intentionally dipping into archival fashion or simply donning an outfit someone else happened to wear earlier is commonplace. So here are 11 relatively recent examples that prove it's not only OK but often chic to wear a previously worn look:
