M&S shoppers left saying the same thing after spotting a 'shoplifter' in latest ad

Marks and Spencer shoppers were left saying all the same thing after noticing a detail on the British retail's advert.

M&S shared two pictures of their new Striped Midaxi Skirt.

The picture in question shows a model wearing a skirt, with sunglasses, taking a large stride in the sold out monochrome skirt.

Her head is slightly turned to the floor and as Manchester Evening News reports, her face can't be seen.

Looking like she's in a hurry in the floaty skirt, shoppers raised an eyebrow to the advert.

One shopper even compared it to a Crimewatch post, suggesting the model looks a bit suspicious

Melissa commented on the post on Instagram: "Thought it was a Crimewatch post."

Viv wrote: "She's trying to make a quick getaway before the fashion police find her."

"What dreadful photography!" Jean added.

Corinne Winwood exclaimed: "I'm sorry, but this looks like one of those crime watch adverts......not very flattering."

Annie Dale said: "It looks like someone on the run."

But Nadine argued the photo wouldn't have had the same 'disgraceful' reaction if it was a different model.

"Had it been a white lady would the same disgraceful comments be casually being made", she commented.

Joanne interjected: "Not ideal to show out of stock items."

Clearly the model has done a good job because the skirt is sold out online in all sizes apart from 22.

Gloria was lucky and was able to get her hands on it. She said: "I have the skirt love it".
