OVER the years, Kim Kardashian's SKIMS has become one of the biggest fashion brands in the world.

But if you're not willing to fork out over £50 for a lingerie set, look no further, as cash-savvy fashionistas have spotted the ultimate dupe.

One style enthusiast, only known as Katie Maria, took to TikTok after spotting what she reckoned to be a close match to SKIMS TRIANGLE BRALETTE, £34, as well as the matching DIPPED FRONT THONG, £18.

The gorgeous SKIMS version will set you back by an eye-watering total of £52 - however, the high street retailer Primark is said to offer a very similar set for a fraction of the price.

Just like Kim Kardashian's lingerie, Primark's Non-padded Triangle Bralette and Thong Set is ideal for everyday wear, boasting both comfort and style.

The must-have wardrobe essential, which is selling for a purse-friendly £5, comes in a lovely cream colour, as well as more neutral taupe shade.

Shoppers can snap up the lingerie set in a range of sizes, from XXS to XL - and if you're unsure which one to pick up, check out their sizing guide online.

The short blurb online reads: ''Cut from a soft stretch fabric, this classic triangle bra and thong design is as chic as it is completely comfortable whether you're out and about or lounging at home.

''Boasting ruching details on the cups for flattering volume as well as the soft support of a hook and eye underband and adjustable straps, the bralette matches perfectly with the sleek and minimalist thong, both of which sit effortlessly under clothing!''

Advising fellow fashionistas to not sleep on the bargain find, Katie (@katiemariaaa1) said in her video: ''Girls, run to Primark for these SKIMS dupe sets!

''The best sets ever!'' she couldn't stop raving about the lingerie in the caption.

And it's not just Katie and the team at Fabulous obsessed with the garments - fellow style lovers on the platform were also all raving over the bargain deal.

''Need,'' wrote one fashion enthusiast in the comments under the video, which has been viewed close to 60k times.

Another was already planning a trip to the local Primark with their friend, wondering: ''We going this week?''

However, not everyone's had the best of luck spotting the SKIMS lookalike, as one moaned they couldn't find the dupe.

''Not in my Primark.''

Someone else chimed in, writing: ''Unfortunately, my chest won't fit.''

Looking to replenish your wardrobe with SKIMS lookalikes in time for summer? There are plenty of more affordable versions, both online and on the high street.

One of them includes H&M's Ribbed Modal blend T-shirt, which you can bag for £3.50.

The short sleeve garment also comes in a range of colours, such as white, beige, lilac and green, and fashionistas can purchase it in sizes XS to XL.
