A video of the offerings was shared on the Primark New In TikTok page, with people admitting they were desperate to get their hands on it.
The clip began by showing a £10 T-shirt, which featured the famous scene where Patrick Swayze lifts up Jennifer Grey in a lake.
It then panned down to show a £16 grey sweater, with images of the final ‘Nobody puts Baby in the corner’ dance scene on the front.
“Enjoying classic features like a crew neck and cuffed long sleeves, it’s perfect for bringing nostalgia and comfort to your off-duty wardrobe,” Primark said of the jumper on its website.

They suggested pairing the jumper with some “flared leggings for a dance rehearsal-ready look or wide leg jeans for an effortless daytime ensemble”.
It comes in sizes from XXS to XL, and is available to buy via Primark’s Click & Collect service.

- While their clothes offer the “latest trends”, they “don’t use expensive hangers, tags or labels”.

While someone else raved “OMG!”
Dirty Dancing starred the late Patrick Swayze as bad boy dance teacher Johnny Castle, and Jennifer Grey as the innocent Frances ‘Baby’ Houseman, who fell in love over a summer at the Kellerman’s Resort.
It was made for just $4.5 million (£3.5 million), but ended up raking in $214 million (£167 million) at the worldwide box office.
