Dunnes Stores is at it again with their latest luxury shoe dupes. Pic: YSL The new ballerina slingback flat shoes at Dunnes Stores retail for €15 and are perfect for any and all of your summer events. While the Saint Laurent slides retail for €890 and only come in one colour, Dunnes allow you to choose from white, black or a fun leopard pattern. Sizes range from 36 – 42 with fans of the summer staple having to be quick as some sizes are already sold out online. The stunning summer find comes in three different colours and is a whopping €850 cheaper than their high end counterpart. Pic: Dunnes Stores All colours are available on their website and in stores across the country. This isn't the first time Dunnes has ventured into luxury dupes, having made waves online for their footwear options last summer. Following the immense success of Dunnes Stores' almost-identical Birkenstock dupe at the start of the year, the Irish retailer has revealed that they are back! The Irish retailer has launched its own version of the YSL slingback babylone flats that have fans absolutely running to their nearest store. Pic: Artur Widak/NurPhoto/REX/Shutterstock With the recent weather that we've all been enjoying (and hoping stays for a while), the Buckle Footbed Sandal is the ideal addition to your wardrobe. The sleek straps and polished hardware bring just the right touch of sophistication, while the contoured leather insole cushions every step, perfect for days that take you from brunch to sunset strolls. Whether pairing them with your favourite faded denim or a breezy summer dress, these sandals are your go-to for effortless elegance. Posting the sandals to their website, fashion bosses at Dunnes Stores said: 'These smart buckled sandals feature a contoured leather insole, making them super comfortable for all day wear. 'Wear yours with everything from denim to dresses.' Like the Irish retailer's last edition of the trendy sandals, eagle-eyed shoppers quickly noticed the striking similarity to the Birkenstock Arizona sandal–but there was only one noticeable difference! Coming in at just €15, the Dunnes dupe is up to an eye-watering €98 cheaper than its luxury rivals, which could set you back around €113, depending on where you buy them.
