Shoppers rush to M&S to get their hands on the ‘perfect’ lightweight summer dress
SHOPPERS are rushing to Marks & Spencer to get their hands on the ‘perfect’ lightweight summer dress.
Some fashion fans even go out of their way to get their hands on a copy of what they already own.
The £25 summer dress is so popular because it ‘fits perfectly’ and is also affordable.
The M&S Collection Jersey Round Neck Midi T-shirt dress can be worn both formally and informally and can be combined with sandals or sneakers.
Fashionistas claim the dress is “so comfortable and washes so well,” which may be why they “buy one every year.”
It is available in black, green and dark red and falls just below the knee.
The Marks & Spencer website states that it is “made in a regular fit from comfortable jersey.”
The dress has short sleeves, making it ‘ideal for warmer weather’.
It belongs to the easy-to-wear wardrobe of the supermarket and combines classic and modern styles.
Fashionistas who have bought the dress, which is available in sizes 37 to 54, say it is great because it ‘doesn’t cling’ to your body.
And it’s proving to be hugely popular with shoppers, with the dress boasting an overall rating of 4.5 stars and 70 percent recommending the product.
Many have rated it as ‘excellent’ for quality, comfort and value for money.
One impressed M&S shopper said of the Jersey Round Neck Midi T-shirt dress: “Beautiful material and very comfortable with a quite loose fit that doesn’t cling to the bum, tummy or thighs.”
Another added: “Felt great, so good in fact that I bought the black, black and white, animal and blue floral. Easy to dress up or down.
“Comfortable to wear. Happy with my purchases.”
A third said: “The dress fits perfectly and is very comfortable and stylish.”
While a fourth wrote: “I love this dress, buy one every year as they are so comfortable to wear and wash so well.
Why Everyone Loves M&S
Deputy fashion editor Abby McHale told Fabulous why M&S is the store of the moment. She explained:
“M&S has really done a great job this season, there are so many good products to be excited about.
“A brand once known for its ‘frumpy fashion’, although that idea has long since disappeared, it is now one of the leading high streets for women’s clothing.
“The handbag range in particular is super strong, with a 170% sales rate against plan, and many more designer dupes at a fraction of the price.
“The brand is also now #1 for style perceptions, up from #3 last year. This is due to a very strong design team that is focused on modernizing the brand, taking into account not only how the pieces look, but also how easy they are to wear.
“Price is also an important factor as you can get a lot of good quality pieces for under £30.
“Having given us a sneak peek at the upcoming collection, there are so many more amazing pieces to keep an eye out for in the coming months.
“Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and great accessories, as well as great wardrobe pieces that will last year after year.”
“Perfect for the summer months, also a great price! Highly recommended.”
As many Brits prepare for a summer holiday by sea, one shopper believes this dress is ideal to pack in your suitcase.
They wrote: “Perfect for a holiday, loose fit so cool, can also be worn at home on a warm day.”
However, for lovers of long fashion, this dress is not as popular as someone wrote: “Beautiful dress, but it is too short. Make sure it is available in the same length as last year.”
