Love Island Rivals Maura & Olivia Clash in Glam Dresses

Love Island rivals Olivia Attwood and Maura Higgins risked a serious fashion face-off at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards in New York — both turning heads in nearly identical sheer black gowns.

The glamorous pair, who have been embroiled in an ongoing feud over their “copycat careers,” appeared to have taken fashion inspiration from one another yet again.

The former Love Island bombshells arrived separately but stunned onlookers as they both opted for floor-length, semi-sheer black dresses that left little to the imagination.

A Glamorous Showdown in the Big Apple

Olivia Attwood, 34, looked effortlessly striking in a daring see-through gown that revealed her lingerie beneath. The Bad Boyfriends presenter added a touch of sophistication with arm-length black leather gloves and soft waves framing her face.

Her makeup was elegantly neutral, featuring long lashes and a nude lip to complete her classic red-carpet look.

Meanwhile, Irish model and TV personality Maura Higgins, 33, also stunned in a similar sheer design — but with a plunging neckline that accentuated her toned figure.

Her sleek bun hairstyle and minimalist makeup gave her a timeless Hollywood edge as she graced the step-and-repeat at The Plaza Hotel.

The event, which celebrates influential women across entertainment, fashion, and culture, also welcomed stars such as Demi Moore and model Brooks Nader.

The stylish showdown comes amid renewed tension between the two reality TV stars.

Olivia and Maura have reportedly been at odds for years, with insiders claiming Maura has been “following in Olivia’s footsteps” throughout her career.

The rivalry intensified when Maura allegedly signed with Olivia’s PR firm, Align PR — the same company that manages global icons including Selena Gomez and Madonna.

According to insiders, this isn’t the first time the pair have shared management, leaving Olivia “shocked” by her rival’s repeated career moves.

A source revealed: “Olivia was stunned to hear that Maura had joined her PR team again. It feels like she’s trying to mirror Olivia’s career path rather than carve her own.”

Maura’s Response

Friends of Maura have since defended the Irish star, insisting she’s simply making strategic career choices. “Maura isn’t copying anyone — she’s focused on building her US presence,” one insider shared. “Her work in America is expanding, and Align PR made sense for her brand.”

Despite the back-and-forth, both women continue to thrive in the spotlight — Olivia as a television host and documentary presenter, and Maura as a model and reality TV regular, most recently starring in The Traitors USA.

Whether it’s coincidence or calculated competition, the two Love Island alums continue to fuel comparisons — from their red-carpet choices to their parallel career moves.

And with both attending the same high-profile New York event in matching sheer gowns, the rivalry between Maura Higgins and Olivia Attwood looks far from over.
