Marks and Spencer is selling a £55 pair of loafers that looks almost identical to a expensive version by Bottega Veneta. While the original designer pair costs £860, Marks and Spencer's is much cheaper, and will save shoppers a massive £805.
Over the years, the high-street favourite has offered 'dupes' of sought-after designer items in both its clothing and beauty departments. Money-conscious shoppers have been rushing to snap up affordable versions of pricey buys from the retailer and the M&S Collection Leather Trim Flat Loafers will no doubt be added to their list.
The stylish flats look extremely similar to Bottega Veneta’s Madame Black Leather Loafers, thanks to their patent leather finish and gold hardware, but they cost over £800 less.
Loafers are ideal for late summer, as they keep your feet covered whilst being breathable enough to wear when it's warm outside. They have a low heel and rounded toe for comfort, as well as antibacterial padding that will keep your feet fresh.
The M&S Collection loafers are available in sizes three to eight and also come in half sizes. Ideal for the upcoming autumn season, they pair perfectly with Marks and Spencer's £39.50 Mom Jeans.

One reviewer said the shoes are "uncomfortable on first couple of wears" and suggested using some leather softener spray to avoid discomfort.

Another high-street item that's similar to a Bottega Veneta design is Anthropologie’s £78 woven satchel bag. The stylish accessory looks almost identical to Bottega's cult Jodie satchel, which is priced from £1,170.
We also came across some gold earrings from Amazon which have the same luxury look as Bottega's £860 pair. They boast a similar design to the expensive 'Drop' earrings, but cost only £14.99 - such a bargain!
