Primark has introduced a new accessory that is drawing attention for its resemblance to a high-end designer bag. The Ruched Chain Strap Pouch Bag, priced at £14, is available in ecru or burgundy and features a ruched shape, knot detailing, and a gold-tone chain strap.
Shoppers have noted similarities between the Primark bag and Loewe's Medium Flamenco purse in mellow nappa lambskin, which retails for £2,700. Both bags share a deep red colour, ruched silhouette, and knot accents, though the Loewe version includes a detachable leather strap and is made from lambskin with suede lining.
Primark's bag is constructed from 50% polyester and 50% polyurethane, described as a 'soft faux leather' with a 'luxe look and feel'. The product listing states it is 'super chic' and ideal for evenings out, with a gold-toned chain strap adding to its polished appearance.
For those seeking a mid-range alternative, Dune London offers a Leather Drawstring Bag reduced from £159 to £79, which also echoes the ruched design but is made from genuine leather with a recycled synthetic lining.
