look alike

Someone's visual twin

Two people or things that look alike resemble each other closely.

As a noun, a lookalike (usually one word) is someone who strongly resembles another person, especially a celebrity: Elvis lookalikes gather in Memphis every August.

The term extends to products or designs that imitate originals: a designer lookalike handbag.
