M&S shoppers race to buy an ‘pretty dress’ that looks exactly like Kate Middleton’s favourite brand but £200 cheaper
SHOPPERS are rushing to M&S to snap up a £45 dress that looks just like one from Kate Middleton’s favourite brand.
Fashion fans are raving about the “pretty choice for smart occasions,” which combines classic and contemporary style.
The easy-to-wear wardrobe staple closely resembles designs from the high-end brand Rixo – a label Kate Middleton is known to favour.
But instead of paying designer prices, shoppers can grab this M&S version for £200 less.
The M&S Printed V-Neck Lace Insert Midaxi Tea Dress comes in a Blue Mix colour with a delicate floral pattern.
The floaty midaxi-length skirt is cut in a regular fit, featuring a V-neckline and three-quarter-length sleeves.
The summer wardrobe essential also includes lace insets at the shoulders and cuffs, which “add a romantic finish.”
The dress is available in three different lengths – petite, regular, and tall – catering to a variety of heights.
It comes in sizes six to 18, but fashion fans are being urged to act quickly while stocks last.
Many shoppers have taken to the comments section on the M&S website to share glowing reviews of the dress.
One wrote: “Very pretty dress washes well and can get away with not ironing so perfect for holidays; comes up a little big around the hips.”
A second added: “Bought this dress for brunch with the girls.
“I received so many compliments and felt great in it.
“Really comfy to wear and super pretty.”
Meanwhile, a third commented: “This is not just a pretty dress, this is an M&S pretty dress.
“So elegant & timeless.
“I have received so many wonderful compliments whilst wearing this dress.
“Looks great with pretty sandals or with trainers, just an incredibly adaptable dress.”
How to find the perfect DD+ dress for summer
Looking for the perfect summer dress to fit your bigger bust? Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has the perfect solution.
Looking for the perfect summer dress to fit your bigger bust? Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has the perfect solution.
Finding a dress that flatters your bigger bust can be hard, often dresses can leave your bra showing, squash your bust and just be ill fitting in general.
However, there are a few things you can look out for that will make dress shopping easier.
A V-neck is a really flattering neckline as it gives your chest some more space, however, don’t discount a square neck also, not only is this a trendy neckline, but will also give your bust the room it needs.
Empire line fits are also super flattering, you just need to make sure they fall underneath the bottom of your bra, that way your bust will sit nicely before the rest of the dress skims your body.
Wrap style dresses are also a great option but just make sure to look for an added popper detail, so that you don’t have to use a safety pin to hold the dress in place and stop your bra from showing.
Extra shirring detail on the back will also give the dress more room for stretch around your chest.
And if you’re looking for a backless dress then make sure there is one with a tie detail at the back that means you can still wear a bra.
If all that sounds like something you’re interested in then here at Fabulous we have created a collection specifically designed for DD+ boobs that ticks all of these boxes.
