Shoppers say Penneys leather jacket is a 'dupe' for viral Molly Mae Zara jacket - but €20 cheaper

Fans of Molly Mae are rushing to get their hands on Penneys faded leather jacket that's being dubbed as an "insane" dupe for one the Love Island star famously wore.

The 23-year-old donned a €60 Zara jacket that has since gone viral and sold out - but a similar jacket, currently for sale in Irish Penneys stores, is €20 cheaper.

The "oversized" jacket, costing €40, is already a huge hit with Irish shoppers who say it is an "amazing quality" dupe for the reality star's favourite.

Fashion influencer Paulina, paulinamuaa, from Cork told her 5,600 followers on TikTok: “I know we are all obsessed with the Zara Molly Mae jacket. I literally wear this jacket everywhere, but I did go into Penneys yesterday and I found you guys a dupe.

"For someone who wants to get something a bit more affordable this is insane. I'm actually obsessed. (...) This is amazing quality. I do love the length of this and how this looks. If I compare the two together the colour is the exact same."

Paulina added that the Penneys version is "a bit longer than the Zara one". She added that this oversized style could be useful if you wanted to "wear a hoodie underneath".

Fashion TikToker Paige Hobson, paigehobsonxx, also praised the jacket. She said in a video: "I could not believe my luck when I found this.

"Everyone's seen the viral Molly Mae jacket in Zara, it's sold out everywhere and people are selling it on Vinted for double the price. I really wanted it and I saw that Penneys were doing a copy of it. I grabbed it so fast, it’s such a nice jacket (...) I actually love it."

Molly Mae posted a picture of her posing in the jacket on Instagram last April and it has since racked up almost 215,000 likes with hundreds of people commenting on it.

She captioned the picture: "Maybe I have taken this jacket off since I bought it, maybe I haven’t."
