River Island's 'trending' summer dress that will 'look stunning with a tan'

Daily Record07-05-2025

Instagram users cannot stop raving over the retailer's £69 dress that is proving popular online.
One high street retailer that has been impressing us with its summer collection is River Island. In fact, one of its latest additions is so popular it is "selling fast."
With summer around the corner, a few of us might have invites to fancy occasions such as weddings. One frock that will compliment your golden glow is this Red Sleeveless Ruffle Mini Dress.
Retailing at £64, this "stunning" dress has been the subject of glowing praise from fashion fans after the retailer shared a reel of one of its stylists, known as Islander's, styling it on Instagram.
In fact, it has become so popular that the high street fashion firm's website has described it as "trending", meaning it is fast being snapped up, so we don't expect it to be around for long.
The fancy red frock falls to a trendy mini-length hemline and features an all-over ruffle design that gives it a feminine and fun touch. Boasting a sleeveless design, it is finished with the classic zip fastening and stylish crew neckline.
River Island: Red Sleeveless Ruffle Mini Dress
Product Description
Also available in a chic black colourway, this ruffle mini dress is still available in sizes UK six through to 18, with the only exception being a size 14 that has sold out in both colours.
Sure to be a standout wardrobe item this summer, we'd advise dressing up this £69 frock with your favourite heels and accessories, with the River Island stylist pairing it with the firm's bold £30 Red Heart Beaded Bag that has also been receiving attention.
For fashion fans who'd prefer to add a bold print to their wardrobe, then we have spotted this Blue Floral Print Ruffle Trim Midi Dress for £45.99 at New Look.
Shopper who'd maybe be more keen on a maxi design might be keen on checking out this Ruffle Low Back Maxi Dress that has been reduced at Debenhams from £50 to £35, saving 30 percent off the RRP.
However, if the "trending" status for the Red Sleeveless Ruffle Mini Dress was not enough to highlight how popular River Island's frock is, then it's worth knowing that shoppers can't stop gushing over it after the firm shared it on social media.
The Instagram post read: "We're seeing red. The red ruffle mini dress as seen on RI Islander Connie."
One fashion fan responded: "Wow looks beautiful."

A second shopper said of the dress: "Be stunning with a tan for the wedding."
While someone else added: "So cute."
Since the River Island website does not offer official reviews, there doesn't seem to be any negative feedback. However, some shoppers have indicated that the design is something they would have worn years ago, with one writing: "I had this dress in 2005 with a big chunky necklace to top it off."

Kylie Jenner teases construction work at mansion as she shows messages on walls

Kylie Jenner gave a glimpse at construction work that is underway at a house this week, with the photos believed to show inside one of her own properties in California Reality TV star Kylie Jenner gave a glimpse at construction work underway at a house this week. She hinted that it's taking place at one of her properties in a series of posts that she shared with fans on social media earlier. Kylie, 27, is said to live in a $36 million - roughly £27 million - mansion in Los Angeles. It's previously been suggested that the Kardashians star's property portfolio also includes an estate in a different area, with her having reportedly been building another home there after buying the land for $15 million - approximately £11 million - five years ago in 2020. ‌ The entrepreneur shared an update about a property with her followers on Instagram earlier today. Kylie posted a series of photos on the platform that appeared to show construction work underway at an undisclosed house. ‌ The first of the photos showed an unfinished archway over a staircase, with the entire structure made of wood. Wiring was seen on the walls and apparent electrical outlets in the process of being constructed were also visible nearby. Some writing was seen above the two outlets, with both instances accompanied by a question mark. It appeared to resemble the word 'sconce' - which is a fixture that can be attached to a wall to hold candles or other lighting. Another photo shared by Kylie showed comments written in black pen on a piece of wood elsewhere. Part of the message read: "We love you Kylie." Above two hearts, it seemed to continue: "God is here." It's unclear who wrote it. The final photo instead featured the first name of Kylie's daughter Stormi, 7, written in green pen beneath a drawing on a wall. Stormi is the eldest of the former Keeping Up with the Kardashians ' two children with her former partner Travis Scott, 34, with them also parents to Aire, 3, together. ‌ Kylie didn't provide a caption on any of the three posts that she shared with her followers on her Instagram Story earlier. It remains unknown where the photos were taken. The US Sun suggests that it shows work underway at the property she's reportedly building, rather than her current home. The photos are the latest insight into Kylie's life after she shared previous updates on the platform just days ago. Earlier this week, she uploaded a series of other photos and wrote in the accompanying caption: "My week on [film emoji]." ‌ Stormi and Aire featured in the post, as did pals including Hailey Bieber, 28, and Kylie's sister Kendall Jenner, 29. Some of the photos showed Kylie herself, with her seen beaming as she looked towards the camera in one of them. Many fans shared their excitement over the post, with one writing at the time: "My heart is smiling. Beautiful beautiful!" Others instead expressed disappointment that her partner Timothée Chalamet wasn't in any of the photos, despite Kylie sharing photos from time they spent together. One fan said: "Post the pictures with Timothee alreadyyyyyy."
