Shoppers are racing to stores for the new jacket, but not everyone loves the look
Some Zara shoppers are swooning over a ‘stunning’ polka dot jacket, but not everyone is convinced. A few customers claim the new style reminds them of TV icon ‘Mr Blobby’, despite getting high praise from the majority of fashion fans.
The high street retailer is no stranger to social media success. Zara’s stylish outfits often go viral on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram. While many shoppers are loving the new £35.99 Dots Jacket, not everyone has had a positive reaction to it online.
Some shoppers have compared the jacket to TV children’s character Mr Blobby, based on its light pink colour and polka-dot design. There was a mixed reaction to the style when it was showcased in a popular TikTok video shared by @Leilapeacock_. In her post, the content creator, Leila, said she thought the style was ‘perfect’.
Showcasing the jacket in her video, Leila told viewers: “Oh my God. I need this immediately.” Clearly impressed by her find, she then told fans to ‘run to Zara’. “I mean this is perfect,” her caption added. Several viewers agreed with the stylish shopper.
Leila’s video racked up over 370k views and 32k likes. One commenter said: “Cutest jacket ever! I need.” Another fan wrote: “I need this in my life.” Someone else commented: “Is that a jacket or blouse?!? Looking stunning.” The jacket was also shared in several viral videos.
However, not everyone loved the look. While shoppers complimented Leila, some weren’t so sure about the jacket. For instance, a viewer thought: “It’s giving Mr Blobby… but still cute.”
Another reply read: “I think I am weird because that pink polka jacket is awfullllll.” Someone else wrote: “I’m confused,” and a social media user replied: “Mr blobby vibes.”
Despite this, there was still widespread praise for the style. Another impressed shopper said: “Ok, I definitely do need that jacket.” A fan agreed: “I never bought something so fast when I saw it in the store.” Someone else thought: “Zara finally starting to be cute again.”
Shoppers interested in the jacket are advised to check their local store, as it’s currently out of stock online. Zara describes the style as a ‘jacket with an adjustable high collar with a tie. Long sleeve. Side pockets. Adjustable hem with ties. Front button fastening.’
Elsewhere, fans of the look might like ASOS’s £49.99 Miss Selfridge scallop detail windbreaker in polka dot. The product description says the style features a polka-dot print, a high collar, a zip fastening, scalloped trim, side pockets, a drawstring hem, elasticated cuffs, and a regular fit.
The brand description adds: “Miss Selfridge takes you from day to date night with its off-duty looks and full-on glamour. Solve what-to-wear dilemmas with its dresses and accessories that combine inherent femininity and an impressive attention to detail.”
