The ITV presenter showed off her pins in a River Island mini dress that would give designer labels a run for their money
When it comes to personal style, This Morning's Cat Deeley has honed a seriously chic and distinctive wardrobe throughout her decades on TV. Each week, her outfits never fail to turn heads, and this week is no different, with the presenter stepping out in a stunning butter yellow mini dress that ticks all the summer 2025 trend boxes.
The 48-year-old regularly opts for premium brands, with some of her recent looks including a £410 Farm Rio dress and a £299 pair of Massimo Dutti trousers. So when the mum-of-two wears something a little more budget-friendly from the high street, it's safe to say we get excited.
On Monday, the presenter looked summer-ready in a Yellow Bow Embellished Mini Dress. While it may look designer, slotting in effortlessly with Cat's high end wardrobe, the dress is actually from high-street favourite River Island, and comes in at £75 - much more purse friendly than some of the This Morning host's former ensembles.
The dress boasts a round neckline and sleeveless design making it a great choice for warm weather styling. It features feminine bow detailing to the back, with rhinestone embellishments on the skirt for a sophisticated and expensive-looking outfit.
Truth be told, it took us a little longer than usual to uncover Cat's look, and that's because we were convinced it was a co-ord. The figure-skimming shift dress is cut to look like a top and skirt, which actually might have actually been even better, as it would have made them more wearable as separates.
Cat styled the dress with simple accessories, including a metallic pair of barely-there heels, letting the statement dress do all of the talking. Equally, for those looking to achieve a more relaxed, daytime feel, a pair of elevated ballet flats would look equally as dreamy.
The lower part of the dress is strikingly similar to a previous season Zara skirt, proving this is a style that will stay in fashion for seasons to come. But what we love in particular about the River Island number is that it's in what is widely considered to be the colour of the year - butter yellow. The hue has been absolutely everywhere this year, and we're certainly not mad about it.
The dress comes in sizes 6-18, though after being spied on the presenter, it's quickly selling out. It does, however, come in petite, which is great news for those 5'3' and under, or anyone who doesn't mind a slightly shorter hemline. Anyone not keen on the yellow might instead be interested in the black or white version of the frock, the latter of which is perfect for hen parties or bridal showers.
For those who love a co-ord, Odd Muse has some alternative options, though they are a little more expensive. The Ultimate Muse Crystal Tee will set shoppers back £135 while the matching maxi skirt is £155. The brand also has some embellished midi dresses for £165. But for shoppers looking to steal Cat Deeley's style, her River Island dress is available here.
