I found a dupe of a posh Whistles dress in a supermarket – it’s so similar but £80 cheaper
WE’VE all been in a position where we’ve spotted an amazing outfit in a shop and thought about buying it – only to see the price tag.
But one fashion fan has revealed how she bagged her dream dress after spotting an almost identical one in the supermarket for a whopping £80 cheaper than the one on her wish list.

TikTok user Laurie Alyce Adventures revealed to her followers that she was the proud owner of a pink Whistles dress that cost her £97.
However, when she was browsing the clothing section in Tesco, Laurie spotted an almost identical gown that was slightly longer – for only £17.
The fashionista, who can be found at @lauriealyceadventures, shared a post in which she held up both dresses to the camera to show how similar they look, with the only noticeable difference being their length.
She then wrote: “When the £17 Tesco dress is made of the literal exact same fabric as the £97 Whistles dress.”

A second said: “When I first saw you wearing the Whistles one, I had JUST bought the Tesco one and was so confused!”
