The 25-year-old model has recently teamed up with the online brand to create her own capsule collection for the online fashion house, and the star believes her range is similar to the designer label's products because of the lace and red tones used.

Speaking to Look magazine about her latest venture, she said: "I think it's got elements of Dolce & Gabbana with the lace and red tones."

And the brunette beauty has revealed her range was inspired by Fashion Week, as well as her own fashion sense.

She said: "I took inspiration from a lot of thing that I'd loved about Fashion Week, things I'd seen in Milan. I was also inspired by stuff I'd worn. I wanted to create a collection that was practical, but sexy and confident. "

The style icon has revealed her mother, Susan Curran, is a huge fan of the garments in the PLT x Olivia Culpo items, especially the clothes with lace on them.

She explained: "My mum's in love with the lace pieces [from PLT]. The body-con black lace dress - that one's her favourite. She hasn't seen it all but I'm very interested in what she thinks.

"My mum and I have different styles."

Olivia - who is currently dating Danny Amendola - believes her fashion sense is "always evolving", but fellow actresses such as Blake Lively and Lily Collins give her style inspiration.

She explained: "I'm always evolving. I like Blake Lively, Olivia Palermo, Lily Collins. I've worked with all of them and told them that. They all have timeless elegance."

And the 'The Other Woman' actress has admitted she feels "overwhelmed" when she hits the red carpet, because she wants to look her best, but is conscious not to get too nervous about her appearance that she doesn't enjoy the ceremony.

She explained: "The red carpet can be overwhelming. Of course I want things to look good. But what helps me is just enjoying it and not taking it too seriously. When I get ready, I'm creating something that's fun and beautiful. It's not about looking perfect."
