Looking for the best Quince Sezane dupes? You’re in the right place.

Dupes are good business, if bad practice: Quince’s “out-and-proud dupe strategy” has already resulted in lawsuits brought by the brands “inspiring” Quince’s catalogue. At their best, a dupe can highlight a brand’s relative weaknesses, or pricing miscalculations. (I’ve owned Sézane sunglasses, and I can’t believe they’re four times better than the Quince version, available at 25% of the price.) Generally, I think it’s better to spend a little more on exactly the right piece, rather than a little less on something not quite right. Buy less, buy better, all that.

Below, a few of the best Quince Sezane dupes — plus our vote for which piece is better.

1. Best Quince Sezane Dupes: Gaspard

These sweaters — the Sézane Gaspard and the cashmere Quince dupe — are so similar in these images I’m not sure I could tell them apart. IRL, it’s not as tricky. The Quince version is softer and a little sleeker — a tiny bit longer and narrower. The Sézane is boxier and easier to wear — except that it is itchy AF, which is a minus when it’s best styled with nothing underneath.

Those tiny details add up: The tension between the ever-so-slight androgyny of the boxy cut and the super feminine fibers! The textural placket! The better color range!

Note: The Quince 100% Yak Soft Rib Crew Cardigan is usually the one named as the Gaspard dupe — it is certainly boxier, but its ribbing is much more pronounced than the Gaspard. The Mongolian Cashmere Cardigan is the better match.

Winner: Sézane — though this pick was a lot easier when this piece was first published two years ago and the Gaspard was $30 cheaper(!)

Sézane Gaspard, $120
Quince Mongolian Cashmere Cardigan Sweater, $79.90

2. Best Quince Sezane Dupes: Clyde

I feel like this is the one entry on the list that might be sad for Sézane fans, since the Quince dupe of this Sézane coat still has the thing everyone loved most: those up-turned plaid cuffs. That detail didn’t survive Sézane’s overhaul this summer. Is the Quince version better than Sézane’s? Not outside of those cuffs — it’s thinner than it looks. But the cuffs!

Winner: Sézane. The toughest call.

3. Best Quince Sezane Dupes: Gabin

Honestly, I think these are both bad buys: The Gabin has my least-favored Sézane bag status — and is $420 — while the Quince duplicates (and I mean DUPLICATES — wow) everything I don’t like about the Gabin and its normie-norm workday vibes…and redoes it in suede. Of the two, the Gabin is clearly better-looking — but $100+ better? Note the Quince version is made in China, while the Gabin is produced in Portugal.

Winner: Nobody — nobody should buy either bag. (See here for a review of the Milo Mini, my favorite Sézane bag.)

4. Best Quince Sezane Dupes: Le Slim Parfait

These two pairs of jeans have roughly similar profiles — a slim jean! in 2026! — but they couldn’t be more different: Quince’s are famously stretchy, while Sézane’s Slim Parfait are notoriously not: For proof, look no further than the fact that the Sézane jeans are 99% organic cotton and just 1% Elastane. (By contrast, the Quince color shown is 63% organic cotton, 20% recycled polyester, 10% viscose, 5% lycra, and 2% polyester.) You know which style you prefer.

Winner: Quince. I find Sézane’s denim overly stiff and hard to wear, and Quince’s price is hard to beat.

5. Best Quince Sezane Dupes: Irma

Quince’s jewelry by and large doesn’t much resemble Sézane’s — Sézane’s is very mid-century vibes, with a lot of organically shaped polished brass, while Quince has lots of office-ready lab-grown diamonds (see: these pavé diamond round studs). There is some overlap — like these paperclip necklaces.

Quince’s version comes in three lengths (16″, 18″, 20″) and your choice of widths, from 2.7mm to 4.4mm. Quince’s is made of 14K gold, while Sézane’s is gold-plated brass and only available in one width and in a 15″ length.

Winner: Sézane. I prefer Quince’s actually — it’s clearly a better-quality product — but the Sézane necklace is good enough, and it’s $178 cheaper.

6. Best Quince Sezane Dupes: Bonnie Sunglasses

Super-wearable tortoiseshell frames. Both frames are acetate — Quince’s ($50) are made in China, Sézane’s ($195) in France. The bridge on the Sézane model is metal, but otherwise I’m not sure you’d see so many clear differences between the two pairs.

Winner: Quince. For me they’re too similar for the Sézane pair to justify paying four times the cost — especially if you, like me, will lose them within six weeks of owning them.

The Quince Sezane Dupes FAQ:

Does Quince make Sézane dupes?

Quince’s business depends heavily on duping the work of successful brands, Sézane included. The most egregious examples are above.

Which Quince pieces are the closest Sézane dupes?

The Quince pieces closest to Sézane are above, with two exceptions. Quince used to have a close-ish dupe for Sézane’s Johnson coat — a top-five Sézane piece historically, but sadly no longer available on the site. The Quince dupe is the Wool Cashmere Blazer Coat. Quince also released a near-identical version of the Leontine — the “100% Organic Cotton Striped Henley Sweater” — which has ever been disappeared or sold out.

How does Quince’s quality compare to Sézane?

Quince’s quality is often inferior to Sézane, though Quince’s sweaters can be less itchy.

How much cheaper is Quince than Sézane?

It really depends on the piece. Some pieces can be as much as 75% off — but you may very well also lose quality and longevity. So from a cost-per-wear perspective, I don’t think the discount holds up over time.
