Poundland releases £16 coat which it says is just like designer one for £3,204 less

Poundland's clothing brand Pep & Co has released a £16 coat across stores which the retailer says is just like one sold by a designer brand.

The coat, which made of faux leather is part of the clothing range's new winter collection and features two pockets and a black belt around the waist.

Priced at £16, it means the cost is £3,204 cheaper than one sold by designer brand Jill Sander which is priced at £3,220.

Both jackets are not identical however Poundland's version is ideal for anyone after a leather-look jacket but doesn't want to spend a fortune on one.

It is worth remembering when visiting any Poundland store all safety measures and rules must be followed and face coverings must be worn unless medically exempt.

This isn't the first time Poundland has released a designer-replica product, over the weekend shoppers were racing to stores to try and find its light-up pumpkins which looked similar to ones sold by Wayfair but for £38.49 less.

Across social media, shoppers have been sharing their desperation at trying to find one, with one user admitting to visiting multiple stores.

Twitter user @Thumbernails said: "I’ve been to four different Poundland shops today looking for a specific glass pumpkin decoration.

"My daughter wanted one so off I went... In each shop, sold out. Nothing but empty shelves. They’re on eBay for stupid money."
