Designer gift- bargain?

I know we are all bargain hunters here so this goes against the grain... but dd(17) is an avid follower of fashion and dearly loves Gucci. She would love trainers or a belt... does anyone here know of any bargainous ways to buy Gucci and the like? (Other than trawling through TK Max)
Many thanks.

It might not be a total bargain but Selfridges and Harvey Nichols usually have a discount weekend at the end of November / early December (MSE usually gives a good indication of the date on their prediction list).

If you are near Bicester Village then they have an outlet - but obviously can't guarantee you'll find anything suitable, it's always a bit hit and miss.

Is she quite slim? Their logo tshirts which are the big thing right now also come in the kids range and are much cheaper!

Best of luck finding something! Some advice from a kid/young adult who always loved designer stuff, please please don't do what my mom did and try and buy tons of little things. I would much preffered to have 1 nice thing like some Chanel makeup, or Jo Malone or a purse from LV, than 1 average thing and a million bits of tat.

Also have a look on the outnet.com - outlet designer stuff, slightly cheaper but you might find something cute!

Great tips guys thanks. She is tall but skinny so the kids top may be okay even if short it will be like a belly top!
And yes nutnerk she would definitely like a few higher value items than a lot of cheaper stuff. I nearly died when I offered to buy her “any purse she wanted” for her 16th and she chose a Michael Kors one. Who knew purses could cost over £100! 😂
I haven’t a clue where she gets this from- her handbag costs more than my entire wardrobe!!

Would she consider vintage? You can pick stuff up on eBay or in vintage boutiques. Oxfam Vintage stores can be worth a look - I've seen Coach and Mulberry bags for around £40
