SHOPPERS have been left baffled after Primark shared their “best blazer hack”, with many saying “It’s a no from me”.
The bargain retail giant shared the clip of the hack with fans on social media as they showed off their new double-breasted blazer.
Bosses teased that it was “your new favourite way to wear a blazer” in the caption of the Instagram clip.
But many were left shocked by the look and flocked to the comments to share their confusion.
The video shows a model wearing a gorgeous navy long-sleeved blazer with six silver-coloured buttons down the front.
She then picks up a long shoelace and ties it around her waist.
The model then begins to tuck the blazer up under the shoelace, instantly giving it a cropped look.
By the time she is finished, the blazer has a unique fold across the midriff area and sits at the waist.

But shoppers were not impressed by the hack, with many saying they felt it looked better before it was cropped.
Flocking to the comments, one user wrote: “That’s ridiculous, just buy a cropped jacket.”
Another added: “Come on Primark, you can do better than this”.
Someone else wrote: “Ermmmm it’s a no from me”.
And a fourth agreed: “Erm, how about no to that!!!”
While a fifth chimed in: “Not good looking, the original way better”.
Not everyone was opposed to the look, however, with some saying that they liked the hack.
A fan posted: “Amazing, nothing beats a smart blazer”.
A second commented: “That looks good”.
And another suggested: “Wear a chain belt instead. It looks better”.
Someone else also replied with a string of heart emojis to show their support for the hack.
The Metallic Button Double Breasted Blazer can be picked up in stores across the UK for £32.
