Ego is selling £45 dupes of Prada’s £835 FLAME heels – and shoppers are going wild for them
The fiery shoes come in four different colours
FANS lusting after Prada’s iconic flame heels are rejoicing after a near-identical version popped up for a fraction of the price.
The designer label has revived its fiery shoe, which was spotted on the autumn / winter catwalks last year.
Costing a whopping £835, the wedges are made from patent leather, and come in a variety of colours including neon pink, orange, red, white and neon green, and the classic black with orange flames.
While some styles are currently on sale for £584, the expensive heels were out of budget for most.
Which is why shoes fans went wild when EGO brought out a near-identical pair for £44.99.
The online retailer is selling four colours, pink, orange, black and green – and shoppers can’t get enough.
