Primark has launched a new bookish collection including a pale blue 'Book Club' cap for just £4.50, offering a budget-friendly alternative to Anthropologie's £32 literary cap. The accessory is part of a wider range of literary-themed items that have generated buzz on social media.
Details of the Cap
The pale blue cap features a curved peak, panelled crown, stitched eyelets, top button, and a red embroidered 'Book Club' slogan. According to Primark's website, it is 'an easy accessory for everyday styling' and pairs well with T-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, or casual jackets.
Both the Primark cap and the Anthropologie version are made from 100% cotton, so shoppers are not sacrificing quality for a lower price. The choice comes down to design preference: Primark's says 'Book Club' while Anthropologie's pink cap reads 'Books > People'.
Other Bookish Items
The collection also includes a striped yellow-and-burgundy long-sleeved top with 'New York Book Lovers Club' on the reverse, confirmed as 100% cotton. Social media users have expressed enthusiasm, with one TikTok video captioned 'New arrivals perfect for book lovers in Primark' by @magicalfindsuk.
Shopper Reactions
However, some shoppers have reported difficulty finding the items in stores or online. One commenter wrote: 'HOW was I in Primark literally last week, and they had none of these! And I live in a country that doesn't have Primark, so I can't even go again.' Another said: 'I cannot be spending more money at Primark, but I'll have to have a look today too!!'
There are also unconfirmed rumours that Primark may launch two ACOTAR T-shirts soon, but this has not been verified.
