Mango's 'elegant' £36 bag is almost identical to Prada's £3,000 designer version

Mango shoppers have fallen for a "wonderful" bag that's almost identical to a £3,000 designer one by Prada.

Mango is a popular retailer that specialises in stylish, on-trend fashion, shoes and accessories. Like many of its competitors, the company utilises social media to showcase all its newest stock and product releases to legions of devoted fans.

The high street is a medley of iconic brands, many of which offer dupes of designer products for a fraction of the cost. It’s no secret that luxe fashion houses influence the items that make it onto the market, with dupes helping shoppers secure high end looks for less.

Mango's coveted Rhinestone Shoulder Bag costs £35.99 and comes with all-over rhinestone embellishment on black, velvet fabric. It can be purchased here.

It's almost identical to designer brand Prada's Satin Mini-Bag with Artificial Crystals which flew off the shelves and remains out of stock on the designer's website. It costs £1,800.

Prada have another similar bag, the Cleo Satin Bag with Crystals, which costs £3,000. It's made with satin material and features bright crystals of different sizes, and is complete with the iconic metal triangle logo. It can be purchased here.

Snapping up Mango's version for £35.99 would save style hunters £2,964.01. Sharing images of the rhinestone bag to its 14.2 million Instagram followers, Mango penned: "Rhinestone takes over our accessories collection as the festive season arrives".

The bag, and coat featured alongside it, proved popular on the hit social media platform, racking up more than 5,900 likes. Shoppers shared their thoughts in the comments section. Erin simply said: "Wonderful", while another fan said: "Elegant". Eszter added: "Stunning!!"
