Shoppers rush to buy new ‘flattering’ M&S dress that’s ‘perfect for holidays’, ‘doesn’t crease’ & ‘ideal for travelling’
SHOPPERS are running to get their hands on a new dress from M&S – and it’s perfect for summer.
So with the weather finally heating up, if you want to treat yourself to a stylish and flattering new frock, then you’ve come to the right place.
The new Chiffon Printed V-Neck Midi Waisted Dress is crafted from lightweight chiffon for an airy feel.
It’s cut in a regular fit, with a waisted silhouette and a feminine v-neckline.
Ruffles bring elegant movement to the short sleeves and the floaty tiered hem and the design is complete with a lining for comfort and coverage.
It’s an easy-to-wear wardrobe staple that combines classic and contemporary styles, and can be dressed up or styled down depending on the occasion.
So whether you plan on jetting abroad this summer, have a wedding to attend to, or just want to look fabulous, this M&S dress is one you won’t want to miss.
The dress is available in two different prints – a neutral leopard print and an orange mix floral.
There are three different size options to choose from – petitie, regular and long.
Sizes range from a 6 to a 24, making this dress perfect for a variety of different body shapes.
The dress is priced at £45 and is flying off the shelves, with searches on the website up by 50 per cent.
Shoppers have flocked to the M&S website to share rave reviews of the new dress, with customers claiming it fits true to size.
It has an average rating of 4.9 out of 5, with many fashion fans giving it a five star ranking.
Not only did fashionistas hail it ‘ideal for holidays’, but many praised the frock as ‘good value’ and great for travelling.
Why Everyone Is Loving M&S
Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale revealed to Fabulous why M&S is the shop of the moment. She explained:
“M&S has really pulled it out of the bag this season, there is so much good product to be excited about.
“A brand once known for its ‘frumpy fashion’ that notion is long gone with it now being one of the leading high street stores for womenswear.
“Its handbag range in particular is super strong with them selling 170% vs plan, with lots more designer dupes for just a fraction of the price.
“The brand is now also the #1 for style perceptions, compared to the #3 spot it had last year, this comes from a really strong design team focused on modernising the brand, not only taking into consideration how the pieces look, but how easy they are to wear also.
“Price is also a big factor with you being able to get many good quality pieces all for under £30.
“After having a sneak peak of the upcoming collection there are so many more amazing pieces that are dropping over the next few months to keep your eyes on.
“Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and amazing accessories, as well as great wardrobe staples that will last year on year.”
One person said: “This dress is very flattering and looks lovely on. Weighs very little so ideal for holidays. Highly recommend.”
Another added: “Love this dress, doesn’t crease, drapes beautifully – I feel good in it!!”
Is supermarket fashion the new high street?
DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in:
The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family.
Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a ‘strong growth in clothing’ and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street.
Asda’s clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury’s clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year.
So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful?
Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it’s good quality too – with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative.
A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year.
Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.
A third commented: “Beautiful summer dress. Light fabric. Doesn’t crease. Ideal for travelling. Fits true to size.”
Someone else penned: “This is a gorgeous dress and such good value.
“The fabric is of very good quality in a vibrant pattern and colour and the shape is very comfortable to wear and flattering.”
Whilst one fashion fan beamed: “Lovely dress and the colour is very elegant, looks expensive.”
