Shoppers have been sent into a frenzy after spotting La Redoute flogging a convincing dupe that looks near-identical, but for a fraction of the price.

With its similar brown shade, horsebit magentic detail, two interior pockets, an adjustable shoulder strap and fold-over flap, there’s no denying La Redoute’s ‘Horsebit Handbag’ looks very similar to the designer version.

And if you’re eager to get your hands on the budget-friendly replica, then you’re in luck.

It’s currently in the sale and has been slashed in price from £34 to £17.

That means that while the luxury label’s bag will set you back a whopping £2,430, at just £17, the high-street version is a staggering £2,413 cheaper.

The online product description for the bargain bag reads: “This compact bag is ultra chic, with a slightly retro vibe.

“Guaranteed to add style to any outfit.

“It’s super practical with 2 compartments to keep all your belongings neatly organised.”

However, despite their glaring similarities, eagle-eyed fashion fans may notice a few small differences.

The Gucci version is crafted from textured leather, while the La Redoute replica is made from 100% polyurethane, making it a slightly lighter shade in colour.

Meanwhile, the lining of the designer bag is been made from pink microsuede, while La Redoute’s is comprised of 100% polyester.

But with an impressive £2.4k saving to be made, is anyone really complaining?
