Primark is selling a 'stylish' £11 handbag that bears a striking resemblance to a much pricier designer option. The high street retailer's Faux Leather Mini Tote Bag, priced at just £11, has been compared to Manila Grace's Felicia Knot In Faux Leather, which retails for approximately £135.
Both bags feature a square mini tote silhouette in classic black, with distinctive knotted handles that set them apart. However, the similarities end there: the Primark version has a smooth finish, while the Manila Grace bag boasts a textured finish and a gold-tone logo, which the cheaper alternative lacks.
The Primark bag is described as a 'mini tote bag in faux leather with knotted carry handles, zip closure and crossbody strap.' It is available in black, khaki, or ecru, and can be purchased in-store or via click and collect on the Primark website.
Meanwhile, the Manila Grace bag is described as 'minimalist elegance' with a 'compact and structured silhouette' and 'gold-tone metal accents.' It is available in black, burgundy, or cappuccino, but UK customers may incur customs charges when ordering from the brand's website.
Shoppers looking for a budget-friendly alternative to the designer style may find the Primark bag an appealing option, despite the differences in finish and branding.
