DUNNES Stores shoppers are set for a frenzy over a new range of Skims dupes on racks now.
The retailer has been releasing a steady stream of dupes that have shoppers racing to the tills.
From must-have shoe dupes to nearly-identical designer clothing pieces, fashion fans have been raving over the retailers previous releases.
And now, shoppers can get their hands on a brand new range of Skims dupes.
Skims is a hugely successful brand, founded by Kim Kardashian, that sells popular shapewear pieces.
And Dunnes Stores previously brought out Skims dupes, to the delight of shoppers.
One fashion fan has taken to social media to show her followers a look at the range.
Instagram user Sharon McCluskey shared a short video to the platform for her followers.
In the caption of the post, she wrote: “Run, don’t walk. Seriously, these €10 Skims dupes are insane.
“I’ve just noticed they have them now in t-shirts, v-necks and bodysuits, perfect for the warmer months.”
At the beginning of the video, she can be seen holding a Dunnes Stores shopping bag.
She wrote: “Dunnes Stores must buy dupes.”
She then shows the first piece, which is a brown long-sleeve top.
She shows a side-by-side of the two pieces, which both look identical.
The Dunnes Stores version costs just €10, though is not available on the website at the moment.
It’s a dupe for the Skims Long Sleeve T-shirt, which sells for €75 – meaning that shoppers can save €65.
She styles the top with a pair of dark blue denim jeans, making the ultimate dressy casual look.
To complete the outfit, she adds a pair of brown trainers.
She then adds a denim jacket for a summery double denim outfit.
HUGE BARGAIN DUPE
She then adds another dupe, which is a real bargain.
Sharon adds the Dunnes Stores Savida Medium Woven Bag.
This bag comes in three colours – black, silver and burgundy.
The burgundy option is not on the Dunnes Stores website, but shoppers may find it in their local store.
It costs just €20 and is perfect for the summer weather.
In the official item description on the Dunnes Stores website, fashion chiefs wrote: “This Savida shoulder bag showcases an on-trend braided design and comes with a fixed handle for effortless carrying.
“It features a medium-sized main compartment along with two inner pockets.
“Savida is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
This bag is a huge bargain, as it’s an almost identical dupe for the Bottega Veneta Small Andiamo Top-handle Bag.
This retails at a whopping €3,000 – meaning shoppers can save €2,980 by picking up the Dunnes Stores version.
THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 – and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
