WHENEVER Molly-Mae Hague steps out for an event, she always looks the epitome of high fashion.
So you might think that her clothes are all high-end, expensive designer brands, right? Wrong!
The former Love Island star turned fashion mega influencer recently revealed that she’s fallen in love with high-street store Primark all over again.
And the 24-year-old, who said she hadn’t filmed a Primark haul in over two years, certainly timed it well, as she’s just in time for their winter wardrobe.
The mum-of-one – who recently silenced critics who had speculated about her and fiance Tommy Fury’s relationships – took to her YouTube account to share her key Primark purchases for the new season.
And she went on a real shopping spree, picking up in-demand items like a Maxmara coat lookalike and even a £10 dupe for a £1,345 Jaquemus handbag.
At the beginning of the vlog, Molly-Mae said: “I found myself in Primark yesterday.
“And the reason I found myself in Primark was because a couple of my favourite influencers of late have been mentioning Primark here and there.”
Then, after discovering one of her favourite stylists was wearing a “gorgeous” Primark jumper, the TV star decided to go to her local store to see if it lived up to the hype.
And she was pleased to report that it certainly didn’t disappoint, as she spent almost £249 and got so much.
Holding up several large bags to the camera, Molly-Mae confessed: “I have bought huge bags here – I went to town, I really went to town.
“I got a lot here. I got things I’m actually going to use and wear.”
She added that her bargain buys were perfect if “you’re looking for some cosy clothes and you don’t want to spend a bomb.”
Without further ado, Molly-Mae began to unpack her bags and try on each item, giving her verdict.
But up first, Molly-Mae picked out her ultimate buy – a £10 black bag that she said was a copycat of a similar Jacquemus style, which cost a whopping £1,345.
She said: “This bag caught my eye, I thought it was really cute and an absolute Jaquemus dupe.
“It’s an absolute fraction of the price you’d pay for a Jacquemus bag – this was £10 and absolutely gorgeous and feels really nice quality.”
Molly added that it was a “nice size” with plenty of room and that she would avoid using the long strap as it cheapened the overall look.
She concluded: “It could be £10, it could be £100, you just wouldn’t know.”
Molly’s other top pick was a winter must – a £40 teddy borg coat inspired by a £2k designer one.
She explained: “I really fell in love with this coat when I saw it in Primark and I feel like this is a massive dupe for a coat I once owned from a brand called Maxmara.”

The star then moved onto a £15 grey jumper which she couldn’t get enough of and said looked like it cost £200 and was “pure cashmere.”
She explained: “I know I’m going to get so much wear out of this lovely little jumper.”
Molly also picked out the things that made her want to buy it, from the non-scratchy material to the thick neck line.
Her other knitwear hero items included “a cosy and cool” £5 snood in a brown shade, a chunky burgundy roll neck with white fleck for £17, and three woolly hats – one of which was £6 from the Rita Ora collection.
She continued: “I feel like with hats, you really don’t need to splurge.”
Other items that Molly threw into her shopping basket included a £7 scarf embossed with a ‘T’ – in honour of her man – and a two-pack of socks, perfect for wearing under boots.
But she said that it wouldn’t be a successful Primark shop without checking out the nightwear selection.
The self-confessed “pyjama queen” bagged two different pairs of pyjamas, including a floral top with checked bottoms and the viral velour set that she described as “the softest” thing she’d ever felt.
Overall, Molly said that her winter wardrobe was pretty much complete thanks to her Primark trip, which she thought of as the gift that keeps on giving.
Molly concluded: “Primark is your go-to place for Autumn/ Winter essentials.
“I’m so glad I did this shop, as I got some really great bits and I’m absolutely buzzing.”
