According to the product listing from London, the two-piece set, which clearly resembles the airlines' sarong kebaya, is priced at GBP49 (approximately RM265) and has been sold over 780 times.

The listing also featured a model donning the clothes and posing in an unusual manner over a chair.

"Depop is wild. How are you selling a Singapore Airlines uniform and calling it 'vintage African'?" she queried.

"That aside, I, too, like to know what my outfit would look like lying backwards over a chair."

As of writing, the tweet has garnered over 4,000 retweets and 13,000 likes.

"@SingaporeAir, look at this," a netizen cried.

Another user said, "Can you imagine watching some person walk down the street wearing this as everyday wear? They would think 'I bought a wonderful vintage piece'. Nah girl, you bought the Singapore Airlines dress code!"

Some Reddit users also pointed out that the store could be sued because the Singapore Airlines uniform was designed by French couturier Pierre Balmain and is trademarked.

Meanwhile, some others were more intrigued by the model's choice of pose.

A Reddit user asked, "Someone tell me why that first pose is a thing?"

While another joked, "The clothes are definitely stretchy, sis. If you don't believe me... [stretches over]."
