Nothing gets the internet buzzing quicker than a designer dupe, and shoppers are calling this one ‘the best so far’.

Consumers are eager to purchase a high street dress that is £195 less than the sought-after original.

With numerous glowing five-star reviews online, the Marks and Spencer dress has taken social media by storm since its release, and it's clear to see why.

In the reviews section, one customer shared, “Beautiful dress and the size is a perfect fit. I've received numerous compliments while wearing this dress. I adore it.”

Another echoed this sentiment, commenting: “I have recommended this dress to two friends, both of whom bought it and love it because I am so fond of mine. I'll be wearing this charming dress repeatedly. A true fashion triumph from M&S here.”

The dress in question has been likened to the cult Ganni Leopard Print Smock Dress, priced at £295. Both dresses feature tie fronts, puffy sleeves, and a relaxed smock silhouette - but the M&S version is just £39.50.

It turns out, many shoppers prefer the budget version not just for its appealing price, but also because the garment is said to be ‘extremely comfortable’ and offers a ‘flattering fit’.

Comparing the M&S dress to the Ganni piece, one shopper wrote: “Oh, how I adore thee. I wanted the Ganni one but couldn’t justify the cost - as it’s very gappy on the chest due to the multiple ties. This M&S version is a winner.”

Well, there you have it.

Why do customers love the M&S leopard print dress?

According to reviews, the Marks and Spencer Animal Print Tie Neck Dress is adored for its ‘perfect fit’ and the multitude of ways to style the outfit, ranging from boots and ballet flats to sandals when summer arrives.

The dress boasts a ‘midaxi’ silhouette and can be adjusted to fit perfectly using the front ties. Due to its oversized silhouette, customers suggest sizing down if you’re unsure.

Where can I buy the Ganni designer dupe?

Surprisingly, the M&S leopard print dress is still available for £39.50 with various sizes to choose from - but stock won't last long.

M&S recently released a pair of nearly identical ballet flats to the Ganni Buckle Ballerinas. They sold out instantly online, so take this as a lesson if you'd like the leopard print dress.
