But while the Prada bag costs a staggering £1,500, H&M's similar alternative costs just £19.99.
A description on H&M's website reads: "Tote bag in braided paper straw with handles at the top."
The bag is unlined, weighs just 272 grams, and has a height and width of approximately 35cm making it the perfect size for all your summer essentials.
Its stylish design features a holed crochet pattern, with a closer knit at the bottom to ensure your belongings stay secure.
It is embellished with 'Amour Paris'.
The bag is also available in a red and dark brown design, adding a pop of colour to liven up your outfit.
With a 4.8 star rating, the bag is clearly a hit among shoppers.
One wrote: "Lovely summer bag. Also good as a beach bag.
"Not too big but can carry a towel, flip flops and a few other essentials easily."
Others described as "perfect for summer" while another said that it "looks a lot more expensive than it is."
The summer trend dividing style queens - some call it a 'girl's best friend' but it brings back bad memories for others
Its more-expensive Prada comparison is similarly sized, and is available in natural (similar to beige), and olive green.
With a slightly more structured shape, the key difference between the bags is that instead of 'Amour Paris', the designer counterpart reads 'Prada Milano'.
This is adorned in a triangle at the centre of the bag, rather than at its base, giving more space for the looser knit design also featured on the £20 dupe.
A Prada product description reads: "This crochet tote bag has a soft, deconstructed shape and boasts a light, summery mood.
"A new interpretation of Prada's emblematic triangle decorates the front and is embellished at its centre with the embroidered lettering logo."

They also have a smaller version of the shoulder bag at just 22cm tall, available for the same bargain price.
Eager shoppers can snap up the summer bargain both online and instore.

Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend says it's time fashion snobs stopped looking down their noses at affordable versions of designer buys. Bargain US supermarket Walmart became a social media sensation when its £60 dupe of Hermès' Birkin bag, dubbed the Wirkin, went viral. Influencer @styledbykristi gushed: "Eighty dollars (£60), you can pretend that you got a Birkin. I mean, everyone will probably know it's not, because who the hell has the money to spend on the real Birkin? Not me.' Me neither. And why bother? I would never spend that on a designer bag (although if someone wants to buy one for me, that's a different story). Plus, if I splashed that much, I'd feel I was being ripped off... We've all been told how the leading brands use the finest leather, thread, dyes and craftsmanship in the world. But all that is inflated by fashion houses to create the desired illusion of exclusivity. Just last year, Dior came under investigation for paying £44 to assemble a bag that sells for £2,000. So while you might think you are paying for top-level craftsmanship carried out by a true artisan, chances are the poorly paid workers are not seeing any of your hard-earned cash. Dupes — not to be mistaken for knock-offs that copy everything from the logo to the inside label — are a more practical and all-round sensible way to go. I bought my first when I was 18. It lasted me four years and only broke after I wore it in the shower. And these days, British high streets have plenty of dupes. In the past three years, Marks & Spencer, H&M and Mango have all seen huge spikes in sales thanks to their canny copies. They use the same viral, must-have marketing tactics that pricey brands have. Fashion folk will tell you that you are making an investment and buying a 'heritage piece' and will turn their noses up at a high street equivalent. But we've been wearing looks inspired by catwalk designers for decades. If we can buy a bag that's the spitting image of the pricier version, but doesn't mean you have to remortgage, why not?

Shoppers race to popular supermarket as bargain Fairy pods for 100 washes spotted on shelves
LAUNDRY HACK Shoppers race to popular supermarket as bargain Fairy pods for 100 washes spotted on shelves Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHOPPERS are rushing to a popular chain with over 300 stores across the UK after spotting a cracking deal on a household essential. Farmfoods is selling Fairy laundry pods offering 100 washes - yet priced at less than £20. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Farmfoods is a Scottish frozen food and grocery supermarket chain with 341 stores Credit: Getty 2 Farmfoods is selling bargain Fairy laundry pods, shoppers claim Credit: Getty One savvy shopper took to social media to share their cheap find, writing: "100 washes are back in Farmfoods £19,99." This is a bargain compared to Amazon, where the same Fairy Platinum Non Bio Pods pack currently goes for £25.99. Farmfoods is a Scottish frozen food and grocery supermarket chain with 341 stores across the UK. Founded in 1955, Farmfoods is headquartered in Cumbernauld, Scotland, with a strong presence across Scotland, Northern England and Wales. While Farmfoods specialises in frozen foods, the chain also sells a range of groceries and household essentials. It comes as shoppers spotted Farmfoods is selling a limited edition chocolate that is a twist on a classic for just 49p. Fry's Turkish Delight Orange, which is a citrus twist on the classic floral tasting chocolate, was first picked up in stores last summer. Meanwhile, Tom Church, co-founder of discount code website shared with The Sun today the best times to shop at retailers like B&M and Poundland to save money. He advised that Wednesday mornings are the best time to visit B&M, as "this is when most of the new reductions are dropped". Cleaning fan reveals the cheap, easy way to get clothes smelling 'beautiful' without shelling out on pricey dryer sheets Similarly, for Home Bargains, Tom recommends shopping first thing in the morning, as larger stores typically receive deliveries around 7.30am each day. He also suggests taking a careful look around as you enter the store, explaining, 'Often, Home Bargains keeps the best deals at the front to lure you in. "You don't want to walk straight past them on the way in!' Superdrug often offers promotions and shopping incentives. Tom says the best time to shop there depends on "what you're buying, and timing your shop to coincide with a relevant offer". For example, the store often runs 3-for-2 deals on beauty products, so if you're restocking your makeup bag, it may be worth waiting for that offer to return. Aldi is well known for its middle aisle Special Buys, selling everything from air fryers to dupes for Dyson hairstylers. These deals drop on Thursdays and Sundays, so arriving early on those days gives you the best chance to grab the bargains. The store also has red stickers to point out an item has been reduced. Tom said: "If you get there early, you have a better chance of bagging them. Just look out for red stickers.'
