13 Best Designer Dupe Gifts For Her
1. Bottega Veneta Sunglasses
The Ultimate Designer Dupes.
Because no one wants to take their name-brand sunglasses to Cabo, this makes for a perfect dupe gift for her. Not only are they gorgeous, but she also won’t feel guilty if she accidentally loses them. And these Bottega Veneta designer dupes are insanely legit! You can purchase them for around $20, which is an absolute steal considering the real Bottegas sell for $400.
Now it’s important to note that these ‘fake’ sunnies are not advertised as dupes, but you can check out the real pair here, and wow, the resemblance is uncanny. One of my favorite things about these sunglasses is that there are no labels whatsoever on them which leaves people wanting to know more, right?!
Purchase these Bottega Veneta Dupes at SOJOS VISION.
2. Golden Goose Designer Dupes
High-Quality Designer Dupes.
Golden Goose Shoes are a famous Italian brand with prices ranging from $300 to $500. Inspired by the skating culture in Los Angeles, these comfortable and distressed Italian shoes sold with ‘perfect imperfections’ make them stand out from other competitors.
Experts swear these are the best Golden Goose dupes to buy. However, she’ll have to make her own distressed imperfections.
Purchase Golden Goose Dupes on ETSY.

If you don’t want to spend almost $300 for the real Skims pj’s, which for that price includes a top, bottoms, and robe, no problem! This three-piece dupe set sells for around $30 and looks almost identical to the Skims brand founded by Kim Kardashian.

This designer purse dupe is gorgeous, and the reviews are solid, which means this might be one of the best bag dupes out there. The real Bottega sells for $4,500, but you can snag this one for under $100. This dupe is genuine leather and comes with an oversized chain, which is a trend that will be popping up in Chanel bags as well for the Spring/Summer of 2022.

8. Valentino Rockstud Heel Dupes
High-Quality Heels.
The authentic Valentino Rockstud shoes could range from $990 to $1,300, while a fantastic dupe will cost around $50. These designer dupes come in seven different color combinations.
Purchase these Valentino Rockstud Heel Dupes at DHGATE.
9. Gucci Belt Designer Dupes
The Illusion Behind This Dupe.
What’s so perfect about these Gucci belt dupes is that they aren’t displaying G’s in the middle of the belt, which gives the perfect illusion. This ‘dupe’ belt is not intended to be a Gucci inspiration, and it certainly will deceive the designer’s eye.
Purchase this Gucci Belt ‘Dupe’ at BAGINC.
10. Balmain Classic Double-Breasted Blazer
The Dupe You’ll Want To Wear All Year Long.
Work, drinks, dinner, or lunch, the occasion doesn’t matter because this Balmain designer dupe jacket will keep her trending. The original Balmain sells for $2,450, but this high-quality dupe is $148 and sells at Express.
Purchase the Balmain Classic Double-Breasted Dupe Blazer HERE.
11. Balenciaga iPhone Case
Best Low-Key Knockoff.
This cover is the only knockoff included in this gift list with the actual brand name on the item. Usually, I would steer clear of those items for worry someone would spot them, but an exception was made in this case. I own this phone cover, and it’s legit!
People won’t question it because it’s just a phone case, and the resemblance is so close they won’t know for sure unless the two were side-by-side. Plus, who wants to pay $395 for a phone cover when you could pay under $15?
Purchase the Balenciaga iPhone Case Knockoff HERE.
12. Bottega Veneta Chain Necklace Dupe
Designer Dupes Are Made For Layering.
The authentic Bottega Chain necklace costs $2,250, but if you’re looking for a matching gold chain gift for her, you can buy the dupe for under $20. What’s so beautiful about this designer necklace dupe is that she can wear it alone or layer it with other necklaces.
Purchase the Bottega Veneta Chain Necklace Dupe ETSY.
13. Hermes Oran Sandal Designer Dupes
Luxury With Style And Comfort.
Steve Madden hit the mark with these sandal dupes! Of course, I’m sure it wasn’t his intention to piggyback off the Hermes brand, but they look so similar. The real brand-name sandals cost $630, while the dupes are around $50.
Purchase the Hermes Oran Sandal Dupes at NORDSTROM.
FAQ’s On Designer Dupes
What Is The Meaning Behind Designer Dupes?
The authentic brand item inspires a designer dupe, but it does not include the designer brand’s trademarked logo.
Are There Designer Dupe Boutiques?
Yes! Remember, designer dupes are not carbon copies of the brand name, so if you’re shopping at Express and the blazer happens to resemble the Balenciaga Classic, then you could technically call it a designer dupe.
What Are The Best Designer Dupe Websites?
Some of the best dupe designer websites are Etsy, Shein, and DHgate.
Can You Really Sell Designer Dupes On Etsy?
Counterfeit items cannot legally be sold on Etsy. So, anything that imitates a brand’s logo or name without their consent is prohibited.
What Is The Difference Between A Dupe And A Knockoff?
Knockoffs are illegal to sell because they are trying to be passed off as the real thing, aka, fake Louis Vuitton handbags. Dupe designs are inspired and resemble an item, but they are not sold with logos or advertised as they are trying to represent a particular luxury brand.
Are Dupes Legal?
Yes! Designer dupes are legal as long as they are not passed off as high-end fakes. While this is a gray area legally, the dupe item must never display brand logos.
Is It OK To Buy Designer Dupes?
Absolutely! If the top at Forever 21 reminds you of a Skims bodysuit you saw online, then technically, it is a designer dupe, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, if that piece of clothing were advertised as the real Skims, that would not be OK.
Is It Ethical To Buy Dupes?
Again, yes, as long as you are following the rules mentioned above, it is ethical. However, it is not illegal for you to buy fake knockoffs either, just don’t resell them.
