River Island's £20 mules look very similar to £860 Bottega Veneta's

River Island has halved the price of a pair of woven heels that are said to be a ‘dupe’ of a designer brand.

Shoppers are loving a pair of heels from high street store River Island - and they're currently in the sale. The heels are extremely similar to luxury fashion brand, Bottega Veneta.

The River Island mules feature a woven design across the foot with two gold and nude chains attached. The heel is a faux patent leather nude for a luxurious finish and has a height of 6cm, reports BristolLive.

Both pairs of the slip-on mules have woven raffia detailing, and feature a square-shaped open toe design. The luxury Italian-made pair have a slightly higher heel, but both have the same curved shape and tan tips at the bottom of the heel - and being lower, River Island's pair may turn out more comfortable.

The slight difference between the River Island and the Bottega mules, is that the Bottega version does not have any gold chains across the foot; they just simply feature a twisted woven design. Also, not forgetting the very large difference in price between the two.

The River Island Beige Wide Fit Woven Mule’s are currently on sale from £48 to £20, whereas the Bottega Intrecciato raffia mules would set you back £860. This means you would save a staggering £812 if you opted for the River Island dupes.
