Shoppers are racing to nab M&S trench coat that’s a dupe for Burberry’s version…but it’s a whopping £1821 cheaper
And the £79 trench coat dupe isn’t the only item that’s sent M&S fans into a frenzy in recent weeks.
FROM chunky boots to trench coats, we’ve all got our go-to wardrobe staples when it comes to winter/spring.
But if you’re a fashion fan who has got expensive taste when it comes to coats and not the bank balance to match, then you may just want to listen up!
That’s because shoppers have been sent into a frenzy after spotting M&S selling a trench coat that’s almost identical to a Burberry version.
However, there’s one major difference – the price tag.
While the high-end version will set you back a whopping £1,890, the M&S dupe retails at a much more reasonable £79 – making it an impressive £1,821 cheaper than the real deal.
It’s little surprise the M&S ‘Cotton Rich Belted Longline Trench Coat’ has been compared to Burberry‘s ‘Mid-length Kensington Heritage Trench Coat.’
After all, it has the same timeless double breasted front and includes similar traditional features such as smart epaulettes on the shoulders, buttoned cuff straps and a detachable belt.
The bargain buy is made from 98% cotton making it both lightweight and breathable – perfect for the country’s unpredictable weather conditions – and comes in a relaxed fit so you can still layer up underneath if needs be.
Not only that but it’s available in both black and beige and comes in a range of sizes from 6-24 – and there’s also petite options available.
And what’s more is it features M&S’ Stormwear technology to help protect you from the light rain showers, which will be ideal for when we transition from winter into spring.
While it’s new to the high-street website, one delighted customer has already left a glowing review.
“Bravo M&S this trench is amazing fit is perfect great price and very pleased,” they wrote.
It comes after fashion fans recently went wild after spotting M&S selling a convincing replica of the £2k YSL Manhattan bag for just £39.50.
A woman named Monica rushed to social media to show off the new designs and enthused: “If you want the luxury look for less, I recently spotted these bags in Marks and Spencer.
“They are a brilliant alternative to the Manhattan shoulder bag by YSL.”
Available in two colours – black and crown – they come with a long shoulder strap that can be detached and have gold hardware similar to the YSL original.
The bag costs just £39.50 – a massive saving compared to the designer tote which cost over £2,000.
