And fashion fans have insisted the new chocolate brown midi frock is a must-have for the warmer summer months.
The £35 dress boasts a classic flowy silhouette, thin straps and ruffle detailing around the V-neck.
It can easily be dressed up with heels for a summer wedding, or with sandals for a holiday abroad.
The pretty bow nestled within the ruffles can also be tightened or loosened to adjust the straps which allows the perfect fit for all boob sizes.
The supermarket find ranges from a size 6 to 22 and is already priving a hit in stores.
But it's not available on the website so you'll need to be quick if you want to get your hands on it.
According to Tesco workers at one local branch, the F&F buy is the "most perfect summer dress".
Another employee revealed it's been in high demand so far, as she said: "Had to refill this one at work today, lovely dress."
And a third member of staff gushed: "Girlies RUN to F&F for the prettiest brown dress!!"
Unsurprisingly, fashion fans have been left in a frenzy over the dress after spotting it in store.
"Gorgeous dress, bought it today", gushed one.
A second wrote: "I bought this yesterday and it is absolutely stunning on."
"I love herrrr", chimed in a third.
Tagging a pal, a fourth suggested: "Wedding??"
Meanwhile, a fifth chimed in: "Bought this yesterday it's beautiful!"
More supermarket bargains
While you're in store, you may also want to keep an eye out for the £19.50 'chuck on' summer dress that is "gorgeous on" and comes in three colours.
Eagle-eyed shoppers have also fallen in love with Tu's Yellow Striped Tie Detail Midaxi Tea Dress, which is priced at £28.
Describing it online, the Sainsbury's team say: "Perfect for summer occasions, our yellow tea dress has been designed with puff sleeves, an elasticated waist with shirred detailing, finished with a tie fastening at the neckline for a touch of elegance.
"Cut to a flattering, midaxi length. Wear with suede sandals and golden accessories."
The dress is already sold out online so you'll need to be quick to get your hands on it in store.
If you're self-conscious about a mum tum or your upper arms, delighted fashion fans say this is definitely one for you.
One said: "Absolutely beautiful dress... even prettier in person. It's a lovely light fabric to wear in summer and feels very flattering on my plus size body.
"The pockets are an added bonus! Very pleased with this purchase."
A second wrote: "Bought this because I was drawn to the colour for the summer.
"Love the length of the skirt and the fit at the waist - really flattering!"
Is supermarket fashion the new high street?
DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in:
The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family.
Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street.
Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year.
So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful?
Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative.
A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year.
Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.

I wasn't going to fork out hundreds for a Stitch birthday cake for my daughter so made my own with Tesco bargains
ALL parents want to create a magical birthday for their little ones, but the truth is costs can quickly add up, especially if you want a posh cake. That's why one mum decided to take matters into her own hands instead of forking out hundreds for a professionally made character cake. 3 3 3 She took to the popular Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group to show off her "Stitch cake done cheap." The glorious cake looked like it could've cost a fortune, but thanks to a few savvy supermarket buys the entire thing came to just £25. And amazingly, she didn't even have to bake anything, so her DIY creation is perfect for a baking novice. First, she snapped up the pink drip cake from Asda for just £14. Although the trendy cake looked great on its own, the mum decided to go all out with her DIY cake design, so headed to Tesco to bag some more bargains. To surround the main cake, she bought cupcakes for £4, as well as a cake base for £1.50. To add to the base and main cake she snapped up loads of pink and blue sweets, which she piled high. And the cherry on top was a Stitch cake topper, which she ordered from eBay for £5. After a little time sorting everything out, the finished cake could've fooled anyone into thinking it took hours and cost a fortune. So, it's no surprise other Facebook users were amazed by the creation too. Meghan shares rare video and pictures of Lilibet's 4th birthday celebrations at Disney One commented on the viral post: "We do this every year for our sons birthday! Buy a plain birthday cake and decorate it with whatever he's into that year." "Clever clogs!!! It's fabulous!!!" another wrote. And a third chimed in: "Looks awesome, well done!" Meanwhile, other parents revealed they've been giving the same money-saving hack a go and have made some stunning cakes in the process. One mum showed off a cake she had decorated to fit a Barbie theme, complete with pink glitter, butterflies, and gold stars. Another showed off a spitfire-themed cake she made for her son using a supermarket cake and some fondant. And someone else revealed they used the hack for their wedding cake. "My wedding cakes [from] M&S, all four cakes you can personalise on there website. £150 for all 4. The toppers cost £50 in total from eBay," she said. How much do experts advise spending on a child's birthday? A study by major toy retailer TK Maxx revealed that one in three parents admit to spending less on presents for their own children and their children's friends compared to five years ago. Average Spend: Parents spend an average of £175 on birthday gifts for their kids, while presents for their children's friends can cost up to £95 a year, adding extra strain on household finances. Gifts and Parties: Children receive around 12 presents per birthday, and parents take their kids to an average of four birthday parties annually. Top Five Gifts Parents Buy for Children: Clothes: 49% Books: 46% Technology: 39% Traditional Board Games: 38% Remote Controlled Toys: 26% Dolls: 25% How Much Should You Spend on a Child's Birthday? Experts generally suggest keeping birthday spending reasonable and within the family's budget. A common guideline is to spend around £10 to £20 per year of the child's age. For example: 5-year-old: £50 to £100 Remember, the focus should be on creating memorable experiences rather than adhering strictly to a spending rule. Simple, thoughtful, and creative celebrations can often be just as enjoyable and meaningful for the child.

'Not this again' say Wales fans who spot 'tone-deaf' football promotion in Tesco
'Not this again' say Wales fans who spot 'tone-deaf' football promotion in Tesco It comes ahead of Wales women making their first appearance at a major tournament in Switzerland this summer, This Lionesses display has appeared at a Tesco in Cardiff (Image: Rob Browne ) A Welsh supermarket has come under fire with fans after a huge Lionesses stand appeared just weeks before Wales face England in the Euros. It is Wales' first appearance at a major tournament. The massive Lucozade display supporting the Lionesses has appeared in the entrance to Tesco on Western Avenue, Cardiff. The display is a huge metal archway with packets of Lucozade offering 'fans' the opportunity to "win and meet the Lionesses". It also gives ten people the chance to win a Lionesses shirt. The display also includes a large England football emblem and pictures of the England women's team. Fans took to social media to share their disappointment with the all-too familiar mistake. One fan called the display a "disgrace" (Image: Rob Browne ) One fan wrote on Reddit: "Reminds me of that British Airways tweet wishing England luck against Wales in the Six Nations. Just don't display it in another country. That simple. Promote our country and nothing else." "Not this again. Absolute disgrace," wrote another disappointed fan. Sign up to the Don't Take Me Home newsletter here . Article continues below Someone else commented: "Display it in England, no idea what the hell it's doing in Wales. It seems a bit tone-deaf considering that the Welsh women's football team has qualified for the Euros." Another fan added: "It is disrespectful. Wales is a country in its own right, with its own flag, national anthem, sports teams. parliament, etc. It is not a colony of England, even though it may feel like it due to the thoughtless actions of such as Tesco." The huge display greets shoppers at the entrance to Tesco on Western Avenue (Image: Rob Browne ) Tesco has been approached for comment. Today, Rhian Wilkinson named her 23-woman Euros squad from the summit of Yr Wyddfa. Sophie Ingle was included in the squad despite being a serious doubt having suffered an ACL injury in September. The former-captain is one of four centurions to be included in the squad alongside Jess Fishlock, Hayley Ladd and Angharad James. Article continues below Cymru are set to be one of the best supported sides at the tournament as over 2,000 members of the Red Wall are expected to travel for each game. Wales will kick-off their campaign on July 5, against the Netherlands in Lucerne. They face England in their third group game on July 13 in St Gallen.
