‘This is my swamp’ shoppers in stitches over Zara’s new range which is giving ‘Shrek’ vibes – & they call it ‘iconic’
IT’S the cult favourite animated movie we could watch over and over again – and now fans of Shrek can look like green ogre thanks to the new collection at Zara.
Shoppers of the high street retailer were left in hysterics after spotting two garments that resembled the iconic fictional character.
Deemed the perfect pick for Halloween by some fashionistas, Zara‘s brand new Contrast T-shirt and Vest features a basic white T-shirt and a dark khaki knitted vest on top.
Priced at a purse-friendly £25.99, the high street buy is easy to throw on on days when you’re after a more casual and comfy ensemble – or simply want to look like Shrek.
Shoppers can bag the two-piece in sizes S, M and L and the fit appears to be relaxed, with never-ending styling options.
However, one customer of the retailer, only known as Georgie on TikTok, had a different idea in her head – as she immediately thought of the green ogre when she first spotted the garments.
Taking to the popular platform, the shopper, from England, said that Zara had launched a ”new Shrek range” and left people in hysterics with the find.
Posing with the white T-shirt/khaki vest combo, the young woman did the iconic Shrek roar inside the changing rooms, as her pal was filming her.
The olive green knitted vest went perfectly with the khaki linen bottoms and her brunette tresses in two adorable buns.
”Shreksy,” Georgie wrote in the caption of the now-viral clip, which has racked up a staggering 1.5million views.
According to the shopper, her mate was initially keen to bag the buy – but Georgie convinced her to leave the items at the shop.
”My friend thought it was cute and this was me talking her out of it.”
Hundreds of social media users were left in stitches, as they raced to comment to share their thoughts.
One fashion lover said: ”I thought the exact same thing like who’s wearing this.”
A Zara employee chuckled with the iconic Shrek reference, writing: ”This is my swamp!”

”Wait i should get it for Halloween,” a third was keen to purchase the two-piece.
”I just know someone bought this top, loved it, saw this video, and will now never wear it again,” another said.
”Why did I think this was at universal studios as Shrek merch at first,”a viewer joked.
This comes after fans of the cult favourite movie were sent into a frenzy after it was announced that Shrek 5 will be coming to cinema screens.
