When you want to look Gucci, but can’t afford Gucci, the dupe is the next best thing. Dupes are near exact replicas of the designer product. Let’s just say – dupes make me sing, lol. I’m sharing some designer trends against similar, more affordable, styles.
Top 5 Designer Trends & Dupes
Mules
Shoes with no backs are my thing. Gucci Princetown slippers are $595, I found styles below $50. Score!
Military Inspired Jackets
I think these will hit it big this year. Details like epaulettes, gold piping and buttons, and a tailored fit is what you need to look for.
Mini Purse
How adorable are these teeny bags?! I’m putting all my large totes to the side and giving my shoulders a rest.
Vintage-Inspired Denim
I just heard that Re/Done had a 1,000 person waitlist on their flagship product: reworked vintage Levi’s. I have no time, nor budget, for that.
Heritage Logo T’s
Admittedly, this isn’t exactly a dupe. You can still channel the cool look of a heritage logo t-shirt that’s not Gucci with any of these iconic brands.
Happy shopping!
