Primark’s ‘flattering’ £14 shoes look almost identical to £475 designer pair

Primark is stocking a pair of shoes that bear a striking resemblance to a pricier alternative. Known for its affordable fashion and homeware, the high street giant may have just introduced a new crowd-pleaser.

The retailer’s Point Toe Heeled Mules looks similar to a style by brand Paris Texas, but at a fraction of the cost. Shoppers can snag the Primark version for £14, while the designer version is priced at £475 online.

The heels are very similar, with a mirrored silver finish and pointed toe. They also both have a backless, slip on design.

However, the more expensive version has a slightly taller heel and a less pointed toe than Primark’s shoes. The front strap of the budget version is also slightly thicker.

The full Primark product description reads: “These silver point toe heeled mules are a great option for finalising party looks. The backless, slip-on design showcases smooth and polished uppers with a thick single strap for a slightly vintage feel, while they’re set atop slender heels for added height.

” Pointed toes feature to help elongate the style for a flattering look. You can pair these mules with a sheer shirt and classic jeans combo or slip into them as the final step in your LBD ensemble, either way they’ll look fabulous! “

The designer product description reads:” The Lidia mule in mirrored silver leather features a mid-height slender heel and open toe, making it a dawn-to-dark essential. “

The Primark shoes retail for £14, while the Paris Texas Lidia Mule 70 comes in at £475. This means shoppers could save around £461 by opting for the bargain version.

Customers can grab the Primark shoes, which also comes in black, in stores now. You can check availability at your nearest store or order Click and Collect here.
