IF anyone knows how to perfect the modern capsule wardrobe, it’s Cos. The mid-range fashion brand loves infinitely wearable style staples that stay trendy year-on-year. But what does one do when we have Cos taste, but not Cos money? Fortunately, we can turn to the trusty designers at Marks & Spencer.
The great British store has released a brand new Cos dupe ahead of autumn - and it’ll save you an eye-watering £305. The £45 M&S Collection Quilted Shoulder Bag is a dead ringer for Cos’ £350 Quilted Oversized Crossbody Bag in black leather. “This shoulder bag is a standout choice with its striking quilted design,” M&S bosses said.
“It's made in a contemporary slouchy silhouette, with a zip fastening to keep your essentials secure. “Internal zipped and slip pockets help you stay organised.” Fashionistas who have already nabbed the bag have left it sparkling reviews on the M&S website.
One reads: “I love this bag. “It's a lovely soft material and it's big, so it fits lots in. “And it looks very premium - I've had lots of compliments from people thinking it's designer.
” Another says: “It’s a great size and really soft, like a soft leather but stronger. “It looks great and I am going to be using it a lot.” Cos bosses recognise that their quilted bag - which went viral on TikTok last autumn as a "season essential" - is a style icon.
