A third gushed: "This is my new season summer dress. As soon as I saw this I wanted to try it on. I had to travel to another store to find my size.
"I would say it comes up a little big, but as it's for summer I did not want a tight fit.
"It hangs well and the split at the front is flattering and not too high. I wore it the next day and got lots of compliments."

"Seeing this today I grabbed it and the same dress in the green which is also gorgeous. Buttons are fidly but once it's on, done and you only need to use the first 4 buttons really at the top.

"I'm going to keep my eyes open for more colours it's that amazing."
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'm Muhammad Ali's grandson but kept it a secret when I walked into the gym… I took beatings like everyone else
BIAGGIO ALI WALSH is related to the most famous fighter of all time but he hid it - because he wanted to take beatings just like everyone else.

When Biaggio first walked into the gym he kept his identity a secret - and it took ex-UFC champion Sean Strickland FOUR YEARS to catch on. Biaggio told SunSport: "I never walked into Extreme Couture and I would tell people, 'Oh, I'm Muhammad Ali's grandson.' READ MORE IN boxing "That's actually the last thing I want is for people to know as soon as they get to a gym. "So yeah, I think just word of mouth, people started to find out who I was. Apparently Sean Strickland didn't know till like a couple of weeks ago. "He came up to me and he's like, 'Bro, you're Muhammad Ali's grandson?' I was like, 'Yes Sean, you didn't know this? I thought like Eric or someone would have told you or something. "He's like, 'No. I didn't know, that's so cool. Like, how was he? Was he cool?' I was like, 'Yeah, he was cool, he was funny.

"It's you that's gonna be fighting for you. When I first got to Extreme, you know, a lot of ass whoopings, a lot of ass whoopings. You pay your dues, dude. That's how it is in the sport." Biaggio - signed to the Professional Fighters League - returns to the cage on June 27 in Chicago against 2-0 Ronnie Gibbs after nearly one year out. And he said: "I think in this sport, a break like that is good because you can sharpen so many tools and get your mind right and it gives you plenty of time to just get better in everything, physically and mentally. "And that's where I feel like I am. I feel like I've gotten so much better as a fighter and I've gotten so much better in my mental too, so super excited for this fight. I'd like to get a couple more fights at the end of this year." 4 Bob Walsh, with sons Nico and Biaggio and wife Rasheda, Muhammad Ali's daughter Credit: rashedaali1/instagram 4 Biaggio speals in As-Sabur Mosque in Las Vegas to celebrate his faith

R. Kelly claims his ‘life remains in imminent danger' as prison officials ‘refuse to give him meds' for blood clots
R. KELLY has claimed that prison officials are endangering his life by refusing to give him medication, a new court filing reveals. The disgraced R&B singer claimed he is being denied blood thinners despite being diagnosed with blood clots after he was hospitalized for an overdose in jail, The U.S. Sun can exclusively report. 3 R. Kelly's legal team said the disgraced singer is still not getting his medication after allegedly being diagnosed with several blood clots Credit: Getty 3 R. Kelly's attorneys had a 4 hour meeting with the singer behind bars, and they say their client's life is in imminent danger Credit: AP In a filing on Wednesday, his attorney, Beau Brindley, said he and Kelly's co-counsel had just met with the singer for four hours. In that conversation, Kelly's team claimed their client still hadn't been given life-saving medication after being diagnosed with blood clots last week. In the filing, his attorney said after returning "from the hospital with medically CONFIRMED blood clots, Mr. Kelly is still not getting his prescribed blood thinners." In the federal court filing, his team continued: "After the meeting and obtainment of a signed HIPAA waiver, counsel travelled to Duke University Hospital to seek medical documents that are quickly becoming critical. Read More R Kelly "We have confirmed Mr. Kelly's presence at Duke University Hospital. We have confirmed the overdose. We have confirmed the blood clots. "But we need the medical documents to support it, which require extensive bureaucratic procedural steps. Those were taken," the filing continued. As The U.S. Sun previously reported, Kelly was rushed to the hospital after allegedly being given an extra dose of his medication. According to a filing by his attorney, the overdose occurred after prison staff at the Federal Correctional Institute Facility in North Carolina administered the medications. Most read in Celebrity The musician, whose real name is Robert Sylvester Kelly, is currently serving a 30-year sentence following his 2021 conviction on racketeering and sex trafficking charges in New York. On June 10, Kelly was placed in solitary confinement and given anxiety medication, his attorney Beau B. Brindley stated. He was later administered additional medications and instructed to take them, according to court documents reviewed by The Sun . However, three days later, Kelly reported feeling "faint" and "dizzy." Kelly's legal team accused prison officials of punishing him with isolation after he filed an emergency motion. The singer reported seeing "black spots in his vision" before he passed out and was rushed to Duke University Hospital on Friday. While in the ambulance, Kelly claims to have heard one of the prison officers say, "This is going to open a whole new can of worms," according to court documents. Kelly's legal team claimed that his deteriorating health was caused by being administered dangerously high doses of medication. While hospitalized, medical staff discovered blood clots in Kelly's legs and lungs and planned to keep him for surgery, according to his attorney, Beau B. Brindley. However, prison officials reportedly removed Kelly from the hospital and returned him to the facility, placing him back in solitary confinement. Kelly's defense attorney filed a motion on June 10, asking for his immediate release to escape an alleged murder-for-hire plot by prison officials and another inmate. 3 Kelly is serving a 30-year prison sentence for racketeering and sex trafficking Credit: Getty More to follow...
