In case you missed it, the much-anticipated Sofia Coppola-directed Priscilla movie hit cinemas across the country on New Year’s Day, detailing the life and relationship between Priscilla and Elvis Presley.

Since its release, searches for Priscilla-inspired outfits have gone up by 35%, but there’s one item in particular that has proven to be a major hit with fans – her heart-shaped necklace.The necklace featured prominently during Priscilla’s teenage years in the film and was based on a real accessory that Priscilla herself wore during her youth after she’d first met – and fell in love with – the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, which featured a gold heart pendant dangling from a black velvet ribbon choker.

In order to keep things as realistic as possible, Cailee Spaeny wore an almost identical version in the film whilst playing the teenage Priscilla, and fans can’t get enough of it with searches for heart necklaces skyrocketing by 45% in the last few days.To save you the trouble of trawling through shopping site after shopping site, we’ve managed to track down one of the best affordable alternatives to the iconic accessory, and it comes courtesy of high street fave River Island.

The Black Velvet Heart Necklace, £12 here, is the perfect way to mimic Priscilla’s go-to choker necklace, with its black velvet ribbon which fastens with a clasp at the back, and an oversized golden metal heart pendant dangling at the front – just like the iconic one she wore.
