ASOS selling £22 top similar to Kiera Knightly’s one in iconic Love Actually doorstep scene
Love Actually fans will be pleased to hear you can now dress similar to the ensemble cast in the iconic Christmas[1] film – in particular, Kiera Knightly. For GBP22 you can now sport a near-identical outfit to the one the actress wore during the movie’s famous doorstep scene. During the heartfelt moment between Juliet (played by Knightly) and Mark (played by Andrew Lincoln), he expresses his true feelings by holding up cards as she watches on from the hallway.
The scene is a favourite among many fans, and has been re-enacted plenty of times in pop culture. In the movie, Knightly can be seen wearing a gorgeous festive off-the-shoulder white sleeveless top paired with light blue flared jeans. Now, at ASOS, you can get a similar top for GBP22[2].
The retailer’s NA-KD Off Shoulder Knitted Top[3] was originally GBP44, but has dropped down to half price thanks to being given a 50% off discount. Available in various sizes, including UK 6 to UK 18, the top comes in an off white colour and features a fold-over detail around the neckline – just like what Knightly wore. Although there are no reviews of the top to browse through, the garment has been liked 397 times by shoppers.
There’s also another similar top listed on ASOS for a few pounds more. The store’s Emory Park Ribbed Knit Bandeau Top[4] in beige boasts of similar features to Knightly’s one, but costs slightly more at GBP28. ASOS shoppers can also currently get 15% off almost everything with code HIFRIEND.

In a five star review, Elaine wrote: “Purchased from ASOS many times. I love the selection of different brands as it means I can usually get everything in one place. Never had any issues and been using them for a few years.”
Another called Speakthetruth wrote: “Can’t complain, easy laid out website, lots of bargains and quick deliveries!” Helen said: “Great items quick delivery with asos premier very helpful if need to contact.” However, not everyone has had good experiences on ASOS. Amy claimed: “Had a coat for less than one month and it’s gone bobbly on the arms and waist area.” Meanwhile, Girolamo says: “Placed an order the 25th of November, scheduled to arrive the 4th but nothing arrived yet.”
