‘No business returning’ say Primark fans as they spot a ‘sick’ trend – & it’s making them feel ‘a thousand years old’
IT’S the trend all fashionistas were loving in the early 2000s.
And now the viral disc belt – often dubbed as ”the most unflattering” accessory of the noughties – is back on the high street.

Over the last few years, shoppers have seen the resurgence of many once-loved trends we were loving decades ago, whether that’s low-rise denim or kitten heels that are back in fashion in 2024.
Keen to keep up with the demand of the Y2K fashion, Primark, too, have launched a series of noughties-inspired garments – and their Disc Detail Western Belt is just one of the many examples hitting the store shelves.
Priced at a purse-friendly £7, the accessory comes in both black and dark brown and features metal embellishments in silver and gold.
Fashionistas also have plenty of styling options for this versatile purchase, such as around their low-rise bottoms or a tiered skirt if you’re after a more Bohemian aesthetic.
However, whilst some certainly cannot wait to get their hands on it, the disc belt has not proven to be a major hit on social media.
”Oh, we’re really doing this, aren’t we, Primark?” is how one horrified customer, mum Tasha, felt about news.
Sharing the shocking discovery on TikTok, the fashionista revealed the accessory was placed next to adorable ribbons for hair, as well as high-waist shorts.
”Not a sick joke. The disc belt has officially returned,” Tasha wrote in the caption of the video.
”I feel a thousand years old.”
Although there are some trends we cannot wait to see come back, the gobsmacked customer noted that the disc belt was certainly not one of them.
”This one should stay unrepeated,” Tasha went on in the comments.
It’s safe to say it’s not just the trendy mum who couldn’t believe what she’d just seen, as hundreds flocked to express their horror and disgust.
One person said: ”This one has no business returning.
”Just know the knee high gladiator sandals aren’t far behind.”
Someone else chimed in: ”I’m more upset that I’m now of an age where I’m seeing things coming back around!”
The Y2K trends dividing Primark fans
WHETHER you’re ready or not, it looks like the noughties trends are here to stay.
The discount retailer Primark has also launched their very own takes of the once-loved looks and accessories – but it’s safe to say, not everyone will be racing to buy them.
Recently, for instance, the store left fashionistas totally divided with their pink velour tracksuit – which some reckoned was giving major ”Paris Hilton, 2001” vibes.
Meanwhile, in the accessory aisle, Primark’s £3.50 bangles are making all the noise, with customers bagging two sets.
Although we do love a comeback, there is one shoe trend the majority of shoppers are not ready to see – and Primark’s ballet pumps is one of them.
“You can’t even walk in them because it hurts,” cried one fashionista.
”Girls I can’t do it again,” a fashionista cried.
”Primark you need to prepare us millennials if you are going to drop things like this!” another penned.
”Need extra therapy now,” the woman was left traumatised.
