The high-street brand made a name for itself when it comes to dupes earlier on in the year, when it released its dupe of the Celine Teen Classic bag. Priced at just £35, the budget version went viral on TikTok and has sold out multiple times.

And it seems now the retailer has upped its game and is giving a couple more luxury brands a run for their money.

From Toteme's shearling coats to Acne Studio's oversized plaid scarfs, we've found the best dupes available to buy at Marks & Spencer right now.

Happy shopping!
