The world of fashion is a constant dance between trends and budgets.
While designer labels often represent the pinnacle of style and quality, their price tags can be daunting.
Enter designer dupes: remarkably similar items that mimic the look and feel of high-end pieces at a fraction of the cost.

There are thousands of these so-called dupes out there, with some more closely copied than others, but an Aussie fashion label has stepped things up a level with the release of its latest accessories.
Sussan has launched a collection of bags that are so chic and on trend you’d be forgiven for thinking they came straight from the house of Dior.
The $49.95 Dark Fern Printed Shoulder Bag is a replica of the $3,265 Goyard Artois MM Bag in Green, which is crafted from leather.
Both bags are a similar tone and have a recognisable pattern on them but there is a significant difference in the price.
Or how about Sussan’s take on the Bottega Veneta Jodie Bag?
The Teen Jodie handbag retails for upwards of $5,000 but you can get Sussan’s Tan Weave Knot Bag for just $49.95.
The brand has almost completely reinvented itself to be more trend and youth led, appealing to the masses in a big way.
And the comments about it on Instagram are telling.
“How did I not know Sussan was in its slay era,” one comment read.
“The Knot Bag is so unbelievably gorgeous,” said another.
A third added: “I’d honestly pair all of these with my outfits. I’m so glad I don’t have to spend a fortune for them either”.
