A good midi dress is an essential for any summer wardrobe, and Marks & Spencer’s stunning new one-shoulder number is perfect for a variety of occasions. Whether you’re heading to the beach, attending a summer wedding, or enjoying a picnic in the park, this dress will have you looking stylish and feeling comfortable.
Priced at £39.50, the Pure Cotton One Shoulder Midi Waisted Dress is available in all sizes from a UK 8 to 24, as well as three lengths: petite, regular, and long. This timeless piece flatters every figure, thanks to its flattering silhouette and breathable pure cotton fabric. The floaty midi-length skirt keeps you cool on hot summer days, while the shirred detailing at the waist cinches you in for a flattering finish.
The dress is incredibly versatile and can be dressed up or down with ease. Pair it with sandals or ballet flats and a cute rattan bag for a perfect daytime holiday look, or style it with heels and some gold jewelry for a chic wedding guest outfit.
Marks & Spencer suggests pairing the dress with their £45 Leather Buckle Ankle Strap Flatform Sandals and a Straw Striped Tote Bag priced at £29.50. While the dress is brand new, it’s sure to sell out quickly, so don’t wait around to snag yours.
If the one-shoulder style isn’t your preference, Marks & Spencer also offers a similar alternative, the Pure Cotton Square Neck Midi Shirred Dress, priced at £39.50. This dress features a shirred bodice for a flattering shape, a square neck, and a breezy midi-length skirt. It’s perfect for throwing on over a bikini or dressing up with summer wedges.
Plenty of shoppers have left five-star reviews for the Square Neck Midi Shirred Dress, particularly praising its flattering fit and the fact that it includes pockets. One delighted customer said, “Really comfortable. Looking forward to wearing it when we get some nicer weather. Flattering style and it has pockets!” Another added, “Fabulous dress fits true to size, great length and looks good with a jacket, jumper over the top. Now I just need the sun to wear it as a summer dress!”
However, not all shoppers were impressed. One customer shared, “For me it was nothing special, I think there are nicer sundresses around. It seems cheaply made and looks like a supermarket dress with a higher price tag.”
