River Island shoppers can save over hundreds on a cropped dogtooth jacket, which looks similar to a pricey designer version. If you’re looking to live your Parisian style dream, there’s a jacket to help you jazz up your winter wardrobe.
The high street retailer is selling the Crop Trophy Jacket for just £70, which you can buy on Very at a reduced price of £52.50. Whereas the Anine Bing designer Cara Jacket will set you back £445 (Cream and Black Houndstooth).
If you’re looking for a block colour, the Cara Jacket is also available in black leather, but this will cost you a massive £985. The product details include a cropped fit, dogtooth print, crew neckline, long sleeves, and button fastening. It comes in the colours Cream Dogtooth or Cream Boucle.
River Island shared a video of the garment on its Instagram page, showing off the Cream dogtooth trophy jacket in a Parisian-inspired outfit. The caption reads: “Sidestep a spenny trip on the Eurostar with Parisian-inspired outfits, as styled by Iconic Islander, Jen.”

For comparison, Anine Bing’s Cara Jack comes in either Cream and Black Houndstooth or Black, and is priced at a massive £445. The jacket's description reads: “A feminine lady jacket made from a luxurious boucle cotton-tweed fabrication in a cream and black houndstooth pattern.
