M&S launches their new glitzy Xmas party dress that’s ideal for women of all ages – and there’s loads of stock left
WITH Christmas just weeks away, Marks & Spencer has got us all in the festive spirit – from their gorgeous decor to a mouth-watering feast.
However, it’s not just food fans got their eyes on after the high street retailer launched their Christmas advert for this season.
Starring Dawn French, 67, the sweet adverts showcases the selection of festive bits ready for Christmas – but on-trend fashionistas have been eyeing up the comedian’s outfit more than anything else.
In the first of a six-part ad series, which launched earlier this week, Dawn finds herself hum-bugging over festivities – that is, until a fairy pal steps in to help deck her home, and spruce up her outfit into something more glitzy.
In the blink of an eye, the comedian goes from wearing a pair of cosy PJs to rocking a glam Christmas dress ready to host a party.
Flocking to the supermarket’s page on Instagram, fans have swooned over her glam look, with one commenting: “Can we get a link for the dress she is wearing, please?”
”And are Dawn’s dress and sparkly earrings available?” wondered another.
The good news is you can pick up the sparkly little number – and not only is it under £50 but the festive gown is also in stock for the majority of sizes.
Selling for £45, the Textured V-Neck Midi Relaxed Dress is said to ‘’channel effortless glamour’’.
Made from a shimmering textured fabric, the midi dress makes for the perfect festive outfit that’s sure to make heads turn.
Designed in a relaxed fit with a flattering v-neckline and ‘’sophisticated’’ half button placket, the gorgeous frock falls into a tiered skirt.
Meanwhile, the gathering at the cuffs gives the long sleeves some volume for a trendy silhouette.
As the dress has been lined for comfort and coverage, it’s perfect for festive lovers of all ages.
Available in UK 6 to UK 24, the show-stopper of a garment is currently in stock for most sizes – however, it’s sure to become a major hit, so best get racing to the store pronto.
Fresh in for the party season ahead, the dress hasn’t racked up many reviews.
Christmas Fashion Tips from an Expert
CLEMMIE Fieldsend, Fashion Editor at Fabulous, has shared her top tips for looking fabulous this Christmas.
AVOID: Christmas jumpers
No longer a novelty gag, they’re now gone back to being naff and have no place at a festive party.
By all means, go all in for Christmas Jumper Day for Save The Children, but never wear it before or after that day.
WEAR: Burgundy
You can’t escape burgundy at this time of year and it’s a luxury, deep and rich colour that is a welcome break from Santa-red at Christmas.
Opt for silky textures or velvet for extra style points.
AVOID: PJs
The trend of feather trimmed co-ords has had its day and is so dated.
Don’t pull out your hair plucked pair this year, and don’t get a new set, instead still go for the satin two-piece but just steer clear of the plumes.
WEAR: Sequin Dress
Try to switch up sequins slightly by wearing them with a different texture or colour, eg a sequin skirt with a sleek knit.
But when you’re really stuck on what to wear reach for the sequins, it is Christmas after all.
AVOID: Sequin blazer
Nothing worse than showing up to a festive do looking like the hired entertainment.
Leave the sequin blazer to magicians and Strictly judges, instead always reach for a classic tux style or velvet.
WEAR: Bling trousers
Last party season embellished jeans with diamante bling had a moment, and this year they’re going to be as much of a hit.
If you don’t want gemstones pinging off wherever you go then try metallic, PU trousers.
One shopper who bought it liked the style – however, found it didn’t suit them.
They wrote: “Sadly this dress did nothing for me so returned.
”It was a little short in length, the fit was OK, the style appealed, but just did not suit me.”
If you’re still on the lookout for that one and only festive outfit, shoppers have also been loving H&M’s stunning glittery bow dress – but you will have to act quick, as all the sizes are selling out fast.
Another stunning frock that’s been taking the internet by storm is M&S’ little black dress that screams ”elegance and sophistication”.
