If you've been longing for the iconic Mulberry Roxanne since its rerelease but are shopping on a high-street budget, I've spotted a strikingly similar black handbag for only £46 that captures the Roxanne's style for less.

When it comes to the handbag trends 2025, it's all about the rereleases. From the Chloe Paddington to the relaunched Mulberry Roxanne, this season is underpinned by nostalgia, and I'm loving it. Next's black buckle charm bag is the chicest alternative for those eager to embrace the latest looks, especially the ongoing noughties revival.

Originally launched in 2004, the Roxanne became a coveted accessory amongst style icons like Kate Moss and Alexa Chung black in the early noughties. And just over 20 years later, Mulberry relaunched the Roxanne in September in four updated versions, including the small and mini Roxanne, which retain the original's signature oversized pocket, brass buckles and belted centre. Next's black handbag delivers the same aesthetic as the small black Roxanne for much less, saving you £1,149, making this one of the best designer lookalikes.

The Roxanne bag's appeal lies in its practical and stylish design. Its front buckles have a retro feel, while its roomy silhouette makes it easy to carry every day. Next's Mulberry Roxanne lookalike follows suit with a practical, spacious design, front pockets and gold-tone hardware.

We'd recommend styling this bag with your best trench coat and tailoring if you're heading to the office, or pair it with laid-back denim and chunky knitwear. The styling options are truly endless, making it a handy addition to your autumn outfit ideas.

The revival of noughties bag styles is something we're noting as a key part of the autumn/winter fashion trends 2025, and the Chloe's Paddington bag relaunch has been warmly received by fashion lovers.

Mulberry's 2025 revival is simply an extension of this trend and proves that the Roxanne bag's design has an enduring appeal, which is why this affordable lookalike couldn't have come at a better time.
