10 Designer Dupes on Etsy That You Need to Buy
While designer items are always nice to have, not all of us can afford them. Etsy has tons of designer dupes that are made by small business owners, so you can support small businesses and wear that “Cartier” ring with pride. Here are ten designer dupes from Etsy that you’ll love.
1. Cartier Ring
Since these rings go for a few thousand dollars each, it is extremely understandable if you don’t want to splurge on one. Luckily enough, Etsy carries every Cartier under the sun for a minuscule fraction of the price. A Love ring is a classic, and everyone knows what they look like. I have mine from Etsy, and it even says Cartier on the inside. A true dupe, that only someone well-trained in Cartier would know it was fake, deserves to be your next Etsy purchase.

2. Chanel Headband
A designer headband is the perfect accessory to add some flare to an otherwise plain outfit. You can wear a headband like this one around the house, to the beach, or even out, and people will believe it’s a real Chanel. It’s a sturdy material, so it won’t break on you or start to tarnish. You can thank Etsy for providing you with the hair accessory you didn’t know that you needed. Plus, the Chanel logo is iconic and you deserve to feel iconic in at least Etsy’s Chanel headband.

3. Louis Vuitton Wallet
You know the checkered design, you love the checkered design, but again it’s extremely out of my broke college girl price range. Etsy to the rescue. For just around $10, you can get a duplicate Louis Vuitton Wallet in one of three colors. I am not kidding when I say I cannot tell the difference between the real and fake. It is the perfect wallet to hold your keys on, and you don’t have to pay the $600 or so that a real one would cost. Finding something like this wallet that holds up well is not easy, but this one is sure to catch everyone’s eye and last you a while.

4. Hermés Bracelet
My roommate recently bought a dupe of the Hermés Clic-Clac bracelet on Etsy, and it opens and closes exactly the same way the real ones do. You would have no idea it was a fake if you saw it, but that’s the beauty of an Etsy dupe done right. These bracelets start around $600 normally, but for $20 or so, you can have the same exact thing. A good bracelet can elevate your look, and the classic “H” will show people you know what you’re talking about.

5. Designer Bandana
I’ve always wanted a designer bandana such as Louis Vuitton or Versace because of Billie Eilish. Of course, you can buy ones on Amazon that serve the same purpose, but who doesn’t want their head to be a brand rep for some of the biggest names in fashion? Anyways, bandanas are a great way to cover up a bad hair day, complete an outfit, or just get your hair out of your face. A designer one from Etsy is, once again, significantly cheaper and you will get the same satisfaction. A must-buy.

6. Gucci Belt
The double G’s on a plain black leather belt can be costly, but luckily it is one of the most duplicated belts on Etsy. What my roommate calls a “Fucci” belt is much more cost-effective and actually, no one can tell the difference between real and fake, we’ve tried. So, don’t splurge if you don’t have to and get this duplicate belt and no one will even know that you didn’t spend an insane amount on the belt. It’ll be a staple in your wardrobe and everyone will admire the “Gucci” belt you’re sporting that night.

7. Louis Vuitton Bag
The Neverfull bag is Louis Vuitton’s most iconic bag, and subsequently one of their more expensive bags. Etsy sells a dupe for $155, which is a steal when you consider the thousands you would be spending at the real Louis store. For an exact replica like this one, you are not going to find a much better dupe. Each bag is handmade by the seller and is detailed to look exactly like the Neverfull, but thousands of dollars cheaper. No one has to know, and it could be your next everyday bag or your bag you bring to class, really whatever. It is a staple for your wardrobe, and it is an exact match.

8. Dior Chain Necklace
A lot of Etsy sellers repurpose old charms and pieces of designer items into jewelry. It gives you a vintage take, but with real designer items. It’s actually a very creative way to get a unique piece of designer jewelry for a fraction of the price they would charge. No one else will have this necklace, it will be uniquely yours, which is super cool, and not a lot of people can say they have something like this in their wardrobe. Plus, the odds of tarnishing are low and you will definitely have it for a long time.

9. Chanel Hair Clip
Hair accessories are slowly coming back in style, and name brand designers such as Gucci and Chanel sell clips that just say their name for hundreds. This Chanel clip is a dupe similar to one they currently sell, but for $35 on Etsy instead of $400 for the real thing. Hair clips are easily lost, so I understand why you would be wary of buying a designer clip if it would be the item you’re splurging on. This takes away the guilt if you lose it, but will still elevate your look with the classic Chanel writing.

10. Designer Gold Charm Bangles
These basic bangles will become a staple piece for your jewelry collection. Etsy sells them for about $10 a bangle, with charms relating to Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Gucci, and more. It’s a cute accessory to have if you don’t have a dupe in mind that you’ve been wanting, but still want some designer bling. Since they’re so cost-effective, you can buy multiple and flex whichever brand you want to that day. As I write this, I am about to buy four.
