Ok so one thing I would say I'm quite good at is shopping online. I spend a lot of money a week on clothes and trolling through the internet for new YouTubers doing makeup dupes but not so many talking about clothing dupes which can be just as handy to know.
So the first dupe I found probably couldn't be considered a dupe, buttttt, there is a few you can save a few coins for essentially the same dress. So the more expensive version is this Shake and Shimmer Embellished mini dress from Oh Polly. The dress is £36 and also just a side note, the dress is a bit see-through which is not what you want when you're most likely going to be taking photos with flash photography.
So the dupe for this dress although its only £1 cheaper, bare with me, Pretty Little Thing tend to have a lot of promotions going on, e.g. 20% off, 15% off, etc. Although both websites do offer student discount PLT has 10% off and so does Oh Polly, so its up to you and what other offers the websites are offering at that time.
Now quite a few of these dupes are from Oh Polly to Pretty Little Thing because I love basically all of Oh Polly's things but my bank account doesn't...
The next dupe is the Oh Polly Light It Up Cowl Neck Chainmail Mini Dress in Silver and Gold
Ok so these dresses are £75 each!! and they only come in one size and obviously not everyone is one size although it looks stunning, this ones from Pretty Little Thing are only £40 each and range in sizes 4-16 which is amazing.
Although a little more similar to the Oh Polly one is the Chainmail Diamante Strap Dress for £45 each although again they only come in one size which is annoying butttt, they come in more colour choices.
A Three-Way Dupe now is from Meshki they have their Ruby Diamante Strap Mini Dress for £52
And the first Dupe is from Oh Polly and is the Diamond in the Buff Diamante Strap Mini Dress for £38
This dress comes in Brown and Ivory and the straps add a little something to the dress. If you want the same sort of thing for a bit cheaper... Pretty Little Thing have Diamante Strap Bodycon Dress for £20 from their Shape range perfect for Curvier girls.
It comes in Black...
Red...
and Orange
and they come in sizes 6-20. As well as the mini dresses Pretty Little Thing offer, if you don't want to show as much leg, they have the Diamante Strap Straight Neck Midi Dress for £5 extra than the mini dress
Neck Dress I wanted to talk about is the One Track Mind Lace Up Ruche Mini Dress for £28.
Oh Polly offer Black and Mocha as their colour choices.
Pretty Little Thing offer multiple different versions of these dresses so i'll mention them all even if they're not an exact dupe just in case you see something you prefer.
Now this isn't much cheaper at £25 but again PLT always have offer and any difference is a difference. They also offer it in the colour grey.
Both these dresses are from their Plus range which offers sizes 18-24.
Another type of dress that is really similar which I have purchased before is the same style but just in mesh, its £25 again and my best friend put it on and OMG she looked stunninggggg!!!!
and Kim K also wore a similar dress...
The PLT one is see-through hence the name mesh, so you do need black underwear unless you're all about the al-naturel look then you do you boo.
The final dress from Oh Polly that I haven't found an exact dupe for but similar match is the Pure And Simple Thigh Split Satin Bandeau Dress for £35.
As I said PLT don't offer exact matches but similar and for the price difference its worth it. For £15 PLT have the Bandeau Satin Split Bodycon Dress
They also offer a Teal version and a Burgundy version.
One other reason (other than price) that I love looking for dupes is when I haven't ordered from a certain brand before and I want the same thing but don't know if I trust the site. Meshki Is a brand I've seen a lot of on Instagram and their stuff is all beautiful but sooo expensive so I've looked for some dupes.
One dress they sell is the Diamante String Mini Dress in Champagne for £58
Who would've though Oh Polly would be the dupe for this dress but they are! As part of their One Million Collection they released this Sparks Will Fly Metallic Knit Mini Dress In Cream for £32.
Last, but certainly not least, we have a dupe for a Dress from Meshki called the Alessia Diamante Panel Dress for £76!!
Bear in mind Meshki only offer sizes XS-S-M-L so not very specific about sizes but if you do want to order from them I suggest checking their size guide.
Now, you'll be shook at this dupe, I was so shocked I ordered it myself! It's again from Pretty Little Thing called their Satin Bandeau Extreme Split Diamante Detail Bodycon Dress for £25.
As I said I ordered this dress from Pretty Little Thing I looked stunning, only thing I would say Is there is no stretch to it so if you have slightly bigger boobs bear that in mind.
Ok so were at the end of this extremely long list of dupes, so as you can see that if you're dying to get an expensive dress their probably are dupes out their you can investigate. I hope this post helps, or at least entertained you with all the pretty dresses.
Thank you for reading :) x
