Catwalk Queen at the opening of Primark, Oxford Street

osprimark1.jpg
As promised, we were up at the crack of dawn and outside the brand new Oxford Street branch of Primark in plenty of time for the 10am opening. We weren't the only ones, of course, with queues stretching across the pavement and onto the road, stopping traffic and causing mayhem for the police officers in charge of controlling the crowd. Doors were broken, pushing was par for the course, and I'm sure those brave enough to actually go into the store probably came away bruised and battered as people pushed their way to the bargains.

I'm about to go and edit the video footage we shot of the event, complete with chat from some of the girls who arrived as early as 7am to get in the queue. While you're waiting, take a look below the cut for more snaps of the madness. Honestly, what some people will do for a bargain...!

    I can't believe people were queueing like that to get into the Oxford Street branch when you can so easily go to one of their many other stores! I have to admit though that most of my wardrobe comes from Primark and I am an addict! I'm just worried that they'll open too many new stores and we'll all become Primark clones.....!!!

    yeah loads of people were saying everything was a pound. i could understand if a new topshop had rumours of an offer like that, but primark? their stuff is only 2-3 quid to begin with! ridiculous.



    i don't get the big queues... it's not like it's a special collection or something, the stuff will just be restocked tomorrow and the next day...

    I heard it was only that full because there was a rumour that everything in there was a pound... yeah rite, people are too gullable. Anyway now there is a primark in such a place the prices will slowly but surely creep up but we still love it!
