Christmas party season might still feel a bit far off, but the hunt for the perfect party dress is already in full swing. And if you’re looking for a piece that combines glamour and comfort, Marks and Spencer (M&S) has just the ticket.
Their ‘striking’ Foil Animal Print Midaxi Column Dress is a firm favorite, hailed as ‘great for Christmas’ by shoppers and flying off the shelves. Priced at a very reasonable £45, this dress is a versatile choice for the festive season. It pairs ‘ideally with a black velvet jacket’, as one shopper suggests, creating a sophisticated and elegant look.
This sought-after dress is crafted from ‘lightweight’ fabric, ensuring all-night comfort. It features ‘comfy’ three-quarter sleeves and an ‘easy round neckline’ with a button fastening at the back. The bold animal print adds a touch of statement style, making sure you stand out from the crowd.
The dress has seen over 100 purchases in just the last 48 hours, a testament to its popularity. Available in sizes six to 24, with petite, regular, and tall options, it caters to a wide range of body types.
What shoppers are saying:
Reviews for the dress are largely positive. One shopper, who bought the dress for Christmas, said: “I bought this dress for Christmas because I thought it would sell out. Ideal with a black velvet jacket. It is really nice, good fit.” Another user echoed this sentiment, stating: “Perfect fit and bought it for over the Christmas period.” A third added: “Lovely dress and fit. Received a lot of compliments for its first outing.”
However, not everyone was entirely happy with the fit. One shopper said: “This is a lovely dress and will be great for Christmas, length is great for someone 5ft 2 – 5ft 3, unfortunately, it had to go back as it is very tight across the bust and back – will try the 16 to see if any better.” This highlights the importance of checking size charts and potentially trying on different sizes if unsure.
Alternative festive dress options:
If the M&S dress isn’t your style, there are plenty of other options out there for your Christmas party wardrobe.
The Love & Roses Dash Foil Flute Sleeve Midi Dress from Next is a stylish alternative, costing £72. It has an elegant shape and fun flute-sleeve details, adding a touch of sophistication and whimsy.
For a more glamorous look, the Debenhams Occasion Metallic Waist Detail Midi Dress is reduced from £75 to £30, making it a great value option. It comes in both gold and silver, offering a dazzling choice for your festive celebrations.
With so many stylish options available, finding the perfect dress for your Christmas parties has never been easier. Whether you choose the M&S Foil Animal Print Dress or opt for a different style, remember to choose something that makes you feel confident and comfortable, ready to enjoy the festive season in style.
