Next's €39 'gorgeous' summer dress looks just like €2,250 Dolce & Gabbana staple
The Pink/Orange Midi Slip Summer Dress is a steal for just €39, with its stunning colourful print and flattering shape making it an ideal choice for those warm weather days.
The dress also evokes comparisons with Dolce and Gabbana's Printed Cotton Midi Dress, which comes with a hefty price tag of €2,250, featuring a vibrant 'La Dolce Vita' style pattern.

Another satisfied customer chimed in saying: "Gorgeous dress for holidays comfy to wear and very flattering i bought 3 all different patterns love them all easily dressed up for evening I must add they are on the smallest size so I would size up."
While some did encounter issues with the fit, noting: "Too small, even when I sized up."
Even so, plenty of other customers expressed their adoration for the garment, stating: "Lovely summer dress for my forthcoming holiday. The material is soft and skims over my body and the colours are gorgeous."
Another shopper commented: "This is a lovely dress... although I wanted to wear it in the day with my swimwear I think I would want to dress it up for night too."
The Pink/Orange Midi Slip Summer Dress caters to a range of sizes from 6 to 26, available in both petite and regular lengths as well as a tall fit option spanning sizes 10 to 20. Its appealing midi-length cut is partnered with adjustable straps to provide an impeccable fit.

Added comfort comes with a side slit ensuring an easy-breezy walk about.

From Hooch to Reef, why the '90s alcopop is still all that and a bag of chips
THE '90s are back, and we are calling it - the alcopop is Never Ever going away! Some things - The Macarena, Rimmel's Heather Shimmer lippy and boob tubes, to name a few - can stay in the past, but if like me you spent your teenage years necking Hooch with your mates to a soundtrack of TLC while trying on push-up bras and contemplating your first tattoo, you'll be desperate for another swig of the good times. Advertisement Luckily for us all, all the old faves are "Cleopatra Comin' Atcha", thanks to a huge Whether it's a themed hen do, a big birthday or you're seeing some of the best bands from yesteryear on stage this summer, it could be time to swap your G&T tinnies for alcopops. 6 Will you be swapping your G&T for Hooch this summer? Credit: Supplied Hooch, Breezer, Reef and VKs ruled the roost with their sweet flavours and lurid colours, so how do they measure up today? Here's why the alcopop is still all that and a bag of chips... Advertisement READ MORE IN FABULOUS 6 Breezers are taking over the shelves again Credit: Supplied Breezer - Sporting an updated look and three new flavours - Zesty Orange, Zing Lime and Crisp Watermelon - the iconic bottle has relaunched in bars and stores this month, and it definitely Smells Like Teen Spirit. With an RRP of £2 and a 3.4%ABV, it won't break the bank, and as Claire Presland, global director of Breezer said: "Whether you're reliving nights gone by, or discovering Breezer for the first time, this summer is the perfect time to try its three new flavours and discover which one is your fruity favourite." 6 Relive your party days with a bottle of Smirnoff Ice Credit: Supplied Advertisement Smirnoff Ice - A personal fave of mine, this lemon-lime vodka mix was always a great refresher, whether swigged straight from the bottle '90s-style or "poured into a tall glass over cubed ice and garnished with a lemon wedge", as recommended by the folks at Smirnoff. They say that "it's the ideal gift for any vodka connoisseurs" - I say it's great for UK garage connoisseurs who reckon "With a little bit of this, we can make it through the night..." Most read in Fabulous Exclusive 6 Now available in an eco-friendly carton, Reef is future-proofing Credit: Supplied Reef - Heading to a festival? The brand-new release of Reef this month comes in resealable cartons - a first in the UK alcoholic ready to drink market. Advertisement Lighter than the original glass bottles and fully recyclable, it's a timely update on the drink, which returned to shelves last year in bottle form to give fans old and new a taste of that iconic orange and passion fruit. It's sure to be a hit with Gen Z, thanks to its lower ABV and light, fruity flavour, making it ideal for picnics and gatherings rather than caning it '90s-style. Place Your Hand On, Place Your Hands On... a bottle of Reef. 6 Party like its 1995 with this mega pack of alcopops Credit: Supplied Advertisement VK - Cherry has already proven a hit in interiors and beauty for 2025, and now the OG alcopop is available in a sparkling Black Cherry flavour, too. The 3.4% vodka mix is stocked in Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Home Bargains and B&M, and even comes in a mega mixed party pack with a range of flavours, including Strawberry & Lime, Orange & Passionfruit, Apple & Mango and, of course, Blue (don't forget what that does to your teeth, people!). We are loving the slick dark cherry bottles - it's giving Wednesday Addams with a twist of B*Witched. 6 The new cherry flavour is right on trend for Hooch's 30th anniversary year Credit: Supplied Advertisement Hooch - This summer is Hooch's 30th anniversary (yes, we feel old too!), and to celebrate there's a re-release of the 1995 can, featuring the iconic lemon design, plus a new Cherry flavour. Not only that, but in some bars and pubs across the UK, true fans of the drink can find it on draught, for the first time ever, plus in a 24-pack for £38. Hooch was, for many 40-somethings, their first brush with booze, and it's always been the brand that's stood for "unapologetic irreverence" - perfect if you're still celebrating the Oasis tour, Some Might Say... All the 90s trends that are making a comeback WE might be in 2024, but fashion fans are looking to the past when it comes to new styles. So what trends from the 90s are making a comeback these days? Claw clips These hair accessories were a huge trend back in the 90s, but are now most popular among those trying out the "clean girl" aesthetic. Designers such as Prada have released their own versions, while there are thousands of colours and styles to choose from on the high street. Platform flip flops Again a popular choice among fashionistas in the 90s, these heels have made a comeback with designers such as Balenciaga trying their luck with their own styles. Cargo pants Once worn by the stars of All Saints, cargo pants became a popular trend for teens in the 90s. But they've now had a fashion overhaul, with stars such as Bella Hadid and Hailey Bieber all putting their own spin on the trend. Jeans and a nice top It was the phrase that defined fashion for a decade, and now famous faces such as Sofia Richie are sporting the reinvented trend - pairing their own denims with a more sophisticated top. But are you willing to dig your jeans and nice tops out of the wardrobe for a second time?
