Boohoo has brought out its own version of a popular designer handbag, giving shoppers the chance to sport an expensive look for a fraction of the price.
The online retailer’s Check Duffle Bucket Bag bears a close resemblance to the NéoNoé bucket bag by Louis Vuitton, with a similar drawstring design and brown checked pattern. But despite their similarities, there is a huge difference in how much each bag would set shoppers back.
The designer version, fashioned from Damier Ebène canvas, retails at a whopping £1,410. But Boohoo’s take on the cross-body bag made from synthetic leather costs just £22 - it’s even currently on sale with 25% off at £16.50.

Boohoo describes the bag as being ideal for festivals, parties and travel plans, and says it can be paired with anything from a casual jeans and top or a summer dress on a day out. Although it’s almost £1.4k cheaper than the Louis Vuitton original, it could easily be mistaken for the real deal.
The retailer isn’t the only shop offering customers on a budget fashion buys that bear a striking resemblance to pricier versions. Home Bargains shoppers recently discovered a shoulder bag up for grabs at just £9 that looked very similar to a bag on sale in Zara.
The green quilted shoulder bag found in Home Bargains sported a gold chain, drawing comparisons to a Zara lookalike. But the Zara bag had a price tag of £26, almost three times as much as the Home Bargains version.
