TO the dismay of some, a Free People shopper showed off what she thought was a sick fit.

Izzy (@izzyfreee) shared the shopping haul try-on in a viral TikTok video.

She explained that she enjoys shopping at Free People but loves witnessing the brand’s controversial pieces more.

“Free People has f**ked up again, but in literally the most awesome way ever,” she said.

Izzy showed off her latest blue romper, turning around to show off the style’s open-back design.

The shapeless, flowery one-piece features a back slit that shows off a small sliver of back.

Viewers, however, were less impressed — and more confused — than Izzy.

“You’re so awesome, but I really assumed this was a joke about you getting out of the ward,” said one commenter.

Many echoed the same confusion, believing that Izzy had exited a hospital or psych ward.

“Not me like ‘Oh, she got the outdoor privileges,'” joked one commenter.

“When you have surgery at 3 and happy hour at 5,” said another.

“Oh! This is a really popular garment where I work,” said a third.

“(In a hospital),” they added.

One commenter thought the outfit was great but was missing just one finishing touch.

“All you need is some grippy socks to match,” they said.

TikTokers went into a frenzy over the romper’s resemblance to a hospital gown, including Nicole (@nicolestorydent), who picked up a similar Ann Taylor LOFT romper out of sheer curiosity.

After trying it on for size, she concluded that the romper was a cheaper and better alternative to expensive hospital gowns.

“Considering how much my actual hospital gowns cost me, $68 is a steal for this dress. But seriously, Ann Taylor LOFT designers, blink twice if you’re okay,” she said.

“Funny enough… in the week it took to order, receive, and try on this dress, the listing has been removed. They either realized their poor judgment or a hospital bought all the inventory.”

Viewers felt that the romper was a great deal, American healthcare costs considering.

“Omg DUPE. I paid $3,000 after insurance for this dress!” said one commenter.

“I just had a hysterectomy, didn’t realize I was in designer clothes at the hospital,” said another.

Some considered picking the romper up to better accommodate their lifestyle.

“At my age, I need to go straight from work to the ER, so this might be a good buy for me,” joked one viewer.

People urged the romper's owners to pair it with 'grippy socks' for a finished look
