Replicas - art and design.

Hello to all. There were many discussions about replicas, but my situation is a bit different. I don't mind replica owners, but for some reasons can't justify buying one for myself (though I own and love a few that I got in my early lolita-days). But I really like the color combo of the SC lavander skirt and am thinking of getting it to re-sew into a ruffle miniskirt. What do you think? Would it still be the same replica case, or not, since the item design is drastically different from brand?

UPD. After little thought I decided that I'll simply commission some fabric with my own pastel design - cost wise it's the same and I'll sleep well at night. Thanks for the comments, they were a trigger to a better solution.
