Missy Empire is selling a crossbody bag for £28 and it looks just like Valentino’s £1,800 rockstud designer version – can you tell the difference?

EVER wanted to own a Valentino bag but couldn’t justify the price tag?

You can now pick up a very similar version of their rockstud crossbody bag for a fraction of the price – and it’s very tricky to tell them apart.

The Valentino bag features their trademark spiked design, and it comes in black and gold-toned leather with a chain strap and a diamond quilted finish.

The cute bag comes in pink too, if that is more your style, but both cost an eye-watering £1,800.

Sadly, it’s a little out of the average person’s price range, but that doesn’t mean you have to miss out entirely.

This is where Missy Empire has come up trumps as the online store is selling a delightful designer double that will have people second guessing it in the street.

• Valentino Rockstud Spike crossbody bag, £1,800 from Farfetch –

Missy Empire has a £28 replica that looks nearly an exact dupe of the Valentino alternative.

Taking style notes from the Valentino original, we love gold spiked studs throughout and a quilted texture with adjustable chain strap.

Where the two bags differ is that the Valentino has a handy top handle for carrying your belongings closely if you wish.

Match your spikey Missy Empire bag to some studded heels and a leather jacket for the full biker chick effect.

And with £1,772 saving, who are we to argue?

• Vanessa Black Gold Studded Cross Body Bag, £28 from Missy Empire –

For even more designer doubles, can you tell the difference between these £17.50 ‘knife’ stilettos and the £1,225 Balenciaga pair?

Plus these £20 New Look leopard print heels look incredibly similar to the Gianvtio Rossi £615 pair.

And Anthropologie’s £55 utility skirt looks just like the Saint Laurent £860 designer version… can you tell the difference?
