SHOPPERS are raving about a “really flattering dress” from M&S.
Not only have fashion fans praised it as “great for holidays”, but it’s also been hailed as “comfortable” and “easy to wear” too.
So if you’re looking for a new frock for summer, then fear not, you’ve come to the right place.
Luckily for you, M&S is now selling a beautiful dress that’s sure to turn heads.
As well as being purse-friendly, there’s also a range of length options available, so if you’re tall or short, you’re sure to find one that’s just right for you.
It comes after a fashionista took to social media to show off her “M&S spring/summer favourites”, leaving many totally stunned.
Amongst a pair of jeans and a jaw-dropping co-ord, Jenny Mogey modelled the gorgeous black dress from M&S.
Thrilled with the Pure Cotton Round Neck Mini Shirred Dress, Jenny beamed: “So excited about this dress – there’s a sheer detail, the little sleeves.
“This is in a petite length – yes, it comes in different lengths, which is amazing.”
Jenny’s TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @jennymogeystylist, has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly racked up 257,700 views and 10,400 likes.
But it’s not just content creators gobsmacked by this frock, which is priced at £27.50.
Shoppers eagerly raced to the M&S website, eager to share their rave reviews of the understated high-street buy, which is perfect for warm days.
The stunning dress is made in a modern fitted design from pure cotton fabric.
As well as being comfortable, it features an easy round neck and a shirred bodice for a flattering silhouette.
Why Everyone Is Loving M&S
Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale revealed to Fabulous why M&S is the shop of the moment. She explained:
“M&S has really pulled it out of the bag this season, there is so much good product to be excited about.
“A brand once known for its ‘frumpy fashion’ that notion is long gone with it now being one of the leading high street stores for womenswear.
“Its handbag range in particular is super strong with them selling 170% vs plan, with lots more designer dupes for just a fraction of the price.
“The brand is now also the #1 for style perceptions, compared to the #3 spot it had last year, this comes from a really strong design team focused on modernising the brand, not only taking into consideration how the pieces look, but how easy they are to wear also.
“Price is also a big factor with you being able to get many good quality pieces all for under £30.
“After having a sneak peak of the upcoming collection there are so many more amazing pieces that are dropping over the next few months to keep your eyes on.
“Think leopard print dresses, colourful co-ords, embroidered boho jackets, plus lots of swimwear and amazing accessories, as well as great wardrobe staples that will last year on year.”
The mini-length skirt and airy short sleeves provide a super chic finish, making this dress an easy-to-wear wardrobe staple that combines classic and contemporary styles.
But that’s not all, as there’s three different lengths to choose from – petite, regular and tall.
Not only this, but sizes range from a size 6 to a size 24, making this frock great for a variety of different body shapes.
The dress has clearly proved a hit with many, as it has quickly amassed an average rating of 4.7 out of five.
Shoppers beam
Many shoppers described the dress as “true to size” and others were impressed by the “great price”.
One person said: “Lovely dress! Fits me perfectly! Good material and great price!”

Hottest fashion trends of 2025
Fabulous’ Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest trends from the high street.
The East/West Bag
Baguette bags have had a good run, after returning from the 1990s’ shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker to modern-day fashion icons, like Hailey Bieber.
In 2025, the East/West bag is a similar but elongated shape and has long, thin straps that are easy to throw over your shoulder.
They’ve been on runway models’ arms at nearly ever designer show – think Burberry, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta – and are hitting the high street now, too.
Powder pink
Bright fuchsia pink had its day after the release of Barbie in 2023 and now the more polished and expensive-looking pale shade is taking over for 2025.
Pantone may say that it’s the year of Mocha Mousse, but the catwalks say otherwise! From Prada to Erdem, the subtle look was all over the spring/summer catwalks, worn head-to-toe or on its own.
If the sugary shade is too girly for you, then look to sharp suiting for a androgynous take on the colour.
The shell jacket
The ’80s classic is back, but with a sleek and minimal new twist for 2025.
We all know we’re likely to see rain for most of spring, so your practical coat of choice should be a cagoule jacket.
Depop revealed one of its big trend predictions for this year is retro sportswear, with surges already seen in ‘80s windbreakers’.
Seen everywhere from the stylish streets of Copenhagen to the Miu Miu catwalk, now mums who have an emergency raincoat crumpled underneath their pushchair are very much in fashion!
The turn-up jeans
While the shape of jeans remains the same for this year and barrel-legs will still be everywhere, the way we’re styling them is different.
This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy denims into turn-ups.
For this look, size doesn’t matter, so while deep turn-ups are a hit from jean trend-leaders Citizens of Humanity, a slight fold is still just as good – but only as it’s just one single fold.
Peep-toe shoe
Get your pedicures booked in sharpish, as this season your toes are the main event.
After a long hiatus, the peep-toe has been welcomed back into the fashion fold, with brands like Hermes, Miu Miu and Tory Burch showing plain and embellished footwear in this style.
From mules to pumps and clogs (yes, clogs will be around too!), there are lots of different styles that are set to sweep the high street.
Sheer blouses
See-through looks have always lived on the catwalk, but have rarely filtered into everyday life – until now.
Designers Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford loved sheer looks on their S/S ’25 catwalks and M&S even had sellout success with its black sheer pencil skirt last season.
Expect to see more sheer looks lining supermarket aisles and high street shops in the form of skirts, tops and frocks.
Meanwhile, someone else wrote: “Lovely dress for summer. The dress is comfortable, whilst looking great. Excellent price too.”
But that’s not all, as another thrilled M&S shopper beamed: “Really flattering dress which can be dressed up or down.
“Got a lot of positive comments when I wore it with cowboy boots. Really good price point.”
