FEW buys are as essential for autumn as a gorgeous chunky jumper to shield you from the cold. 

And fans of Amanda Holden spotted a stunning one on the star recently, after the 52-year-old shared a snap on Instagram wearing a beautiful cream half-zip.

Eagle-eyed users quickly spotted that the jumper in question was designer brand Michael Kors’s Wool Blend Half-Zip Cropped Sweater, which is available in dark camel and marigold colours. 

On the designer’s website, the sweater is described as combining “of-the-moment style with complete coziness”, with the brand adding: “Dropped shoulders add to its relaxed vibe, while a cropped hem is perfect for partnering with the season’s high-waisted separates.” 

But perhaps unsurprisingly, the stunning knit comes with a rather hefty price tag: it would set you back a jaw-dropping £325.

Unsurprisingly, fans of the style immediately set about scouring stores for a cheaper alternative, and came across a nearly identical one in New Look.

The high-street store’s Zip Neck Sweatshirt comes in a very similar cream shade and has a matching half-zip design down the front. 

The real difference is the price: New Look’s is retailing for just £25.99, saving shoppers a whopping £299!

And customers are absolutely loving the bargain buy, with it racking up dozens of gushing reviews and securing an average 4.7-star rating on New Look’s website. 

One shopper wrote: “Gorgeous jumper. Not seen anything similar anywhere else since. Always have girls asking where it’s from.” 

Another added: “I bought this off the rail and it was so gorgeous on that I had to buy the black and cream too! They go with everything and I’ve been asked so many times where it’s from.” 

A third agreed: “This zipped sweatshirt is lovely and cosy, looks chic… and, [in my opinion], is an affordable alternative to a luxe sportswear brand.” 

It’s not the only New Look buy that’s had shoppers in a tizz over recent weeks. 

The high-street retailer is selling a gorgeous £80 parka to see you through winter – and it looks exactly like a fancy £1.5k Canada Goose one. 

There’s also a Crew Neck Jumper priced at just £19.99, which shoppers say is a dead-on dupe for The White Company’s cashmere jumper which could set you back an eye-watering £349.
