Shoppers love the retailer's new summer collection, with customers praising the "stunning" looks
Primark shoppers love a "stunning" £25 summer dress that looks "classic" yet "bold". Customers fell in love with the retailer's new summer collection after a fan filmed herself trying on the seasonal range.
In a TikTok post with over 200,000 views, blogger @Hannahbrown2323 told shoppers her video would showcase the "Primark Summer Edit on hanger vs on me." Viewers loved the outfits she tried on, and many praised the "stunning" looks in the comment section. In her video, Hannah tried on various new styles, including dresses, co-ords and vests.

First, she highlighted an £18 Embroidered Short Sleeve Shirt and a £16 Embroidered Mini Skirt"designed in white with delicate blue floral embroidery for a subtle pop of colour." The shopper also tried a £25 Embroidered Mini Dress with a blue floral pattern. It's described as a "white embroidered mini dress with tassel tie waist and scalloped hem".

The full product description says: "This embroidered mini dress brings together soft details and bold embroidery on a crisp white base. Blue floral and paisley patterns are stitched throughout, with a round neckline and flared sleeves trimmed in matching embroidery.
"The button-down front adds a classic touch, while the adjustable drawstring waist with tassel ties lets you style the dress your way." Explaining how 'easy' the piece is to wear, the store added: "Finished with a tiered skirt and a scalloped, embroidered hem, this mini dress is the easiest addition to your summer wardrobe."
Later in the video, Hannah tried on a £13 Cutwork Maxi Skirt and £25 Cropped Cutwork Top, opting for the green option, ideal for shoppers looking for a colourful co-ord. The top and skirt, which are sold separately, are also available in white, as seen when Hannah tried on the white maxi skirt with a second matching top with longer sleeves.
Elsewhere, customers looking for a mini dress might like the £16 Tropical Mini Shirt Dress. Hannah wowed in the dress, which has proven a hit with shoppers on social media and earned comparisons to a pricier brand.
The product description says: "From beach strolls to brunch dates, this tropical dress fits into all your summer plans. Made from lightweight fabric, it's cut to a mini length with a tie waist that lets you adjust the fit.

"The V-neckline has embroidered detailing, while short puff sleeves and a button-through front add to a relaxed vibe. Finished with an all-over tropical print, it's easy to dress up with sandals or keep it casual with your favourite trainers."
Reacting to the video, social media users loved the outfits. Someone commented: "The new collection is stunning. Need to take a look soon." A viewer agreed: "Wow you look stunning."
A fan replied: "The first co ord." Meanwhile, a shopper shared: "Got the blue and white print bottoms and matching scrunchie." Shoppers can locate their nearest Primark store here.

‘Gut feeling more important than social media likes', says festival promoter

John Giddings, who has run the Isle of Wight Festival since it restarted in 2002, said performers need to be able to 'deliver' to a crowd and not just keep their attention on a phone screen. The 72-year-old, who represents artists ranging from Blondie to Phil Collins, told the PA news agency: 'It's gut feeling, really. I've learned the hard way in my years in the music business that some people might have sold a lot of records, but they're useless when it comes to performing. 'You want to book acts that have a catalogue that's going to entertain an audience for an hour, hour and a half, and, secondly, someone who's capable of performing to an audience of 50,000 people in a field, because they need to be able to project to entertain. 'When you look back on who we've had – Blur, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, the (Rolling) Stones – they're all capable of delivering, even if it's pouring with rain, which it doesn't that much on the Isle of Wight, thank God. 'But you've got to be prepared for everything and it's quality of performance, really. 'I do know artists who've had a million views on TikTok who can't sell 300 tickets at a club in London. Just because all these people want to watch them on socials doesn't mean they're going to pay money to go and see them in a field.' Mr Giddings – who also manages through his Solo music agency touring shows for some of the world's biggest names such as Madonna, U2 and Beyonce – said that as well as classic acts, he needs to keep an eye on the breakthrough bands. He said: 'Because I'm older, we book acts from past, present and future, there's a discussion in the office as to what new bands are coming up, and you're projecting as to what they're going to be doing in the year's or nine months' time. 'I'll never forget when I booked The Darkness when they first started out, they were supporting someone at Brixton Academy, and I went down there, and I walked in, and Justin (Hawkins) was sitting on the shoulders of his roadie, walking through the audience, playing the lead solo. 'I thought, 'blimey, this is the music I grew up on', and then they came and played the Isle of Wight and blew everyone away.' Mr Giddings said he was always on the lookout for new acts, adding: 'If the truck driver comes up with a good idea and it's a better idea than mine, then go for it, you can't be that arrogant to just believe what you think yourself. 'We've got 15 stages on the Isle of Wight, so whatever stage you're at in your career, you can play one of those stages.' Mr Giddings said one of his highlights from the Isle of Wight Festival was Jay Z and added: 'I remember thinking 50,000 people couldn't go wilder, and then Kanye West walked on with them and it exploded, and I turned to my left, and there was Beyonce standing there – I thought 'It couldn't get better than this'.' Mr Giddings said that he remembered the classic Isle of Wight Festival of 1970, which saw 600,000 hippies descend on the island causing the event to be outlawed for 32 years, and added: 'I remember walking over the hill, it was like going to the Battle of the Somme and you could smell them before you saw them.' After 23 years of organising the Isle of Wight Festival, he said: 'I absolutely love it, which is my downfall because I work all the time, I never think I've actually had a job. 'There's nothing better than sitting in an office in Fulham in November and it's wet and windy outside, and you're imagining putting an act on in a field on the Isle of Wight in June, and then you see it nine months later and people are going wild to it. 'It's the most satisfying thing ever to provide entertainment for people.' The Isle of Wight Festival 2025, which is being headlined by Sting, Stereophonics and Justin Timberlake, runs from June 19 to 22 at Seaclose Park, Newport.
