'Great fit': Get this $12.99 Skims ‘dupe’ top!

The world of fashion is thriving as shoppers are on the lookout for the latest trends and deals.

However, for fashionistas on a budget, designer clothes may seem like a dream, and that's where high-street brands come in, offering similar styles at affordable prices.

Shoppers have discovered an item from H&M, a famous high street brand, that is almost an exact duplicate of a much pricier piece from Kim Kardashian's Skims collection.



The H&M Short Jersey Top, currently retailing for $12.99, is making waves as a close imitation of Skims Cotton Jersey Long Sleeve T-Shirt, which sells for $56.

The affordable 'dupe' is available in popular shades of dark grey, light grey, and light beige, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe.

Described as a 'short top in soft cotton jersey with a round neckline and long sleeves', the H&M top is made of 95 per cent cotton and five per cent elastane, providing a luxuriously soft feel against the skin.

Customers rave about this item, praising its great fit and suggesting that it serves as the perfect 'Skims dupe', providing a similar look and feel for less.

‘Great fit, definitely a Skims dupe. I’m an extra small to small and decided to get an extra small, and it fitted great, not too cropped, which I like,’ said one.

Another said, ‘Perfect staple to add to the wardrobe.’

‘Such a nice material, so soft and such a nice fit,’ a third added.



Despite the price difference, it's important to acknowledge Skims' repute for providing form-fitting and ultra-flattering quality shapewear.

The original Skims top is made from 90 per cent cotton jersey and 10 per cent spandex.

The fabric is advertised as being 'super breathable, lightweight cotton blended with stretch and softness'.

Skims' take on the top boasts a 4.8-star rating on their website, with customers calling it 'the best fitting cotton shirt I own'.



This craze comes after Kmart customers raved over body care and skincare dupes.

Kmart’s OXX Comestics line released its Summer Solstice collection, mimicking the Sol De Janeiro line.

Boasting an array of products, including $8 body moisturisers, $8 mists, $12 perfumes, and $12 body oils, this collection was noted by shoppers for being affordable.

Kmart also released its $3 OXX Skincare Nourishing Lip Oil, which was the ‘perfect’ budget-friendly alternative to the Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil ($62).
