Dunnes Stores fans set to go wild over flattering ‘easy-to-wear' co-ord from €20 – and it comes in two colours
Dunnes Stores fans can't get enough of a viral leopard print jacket DREAMY SET Dunnes Stores fans set to go wild over flattering 'easy-to-wear' co-ord from €20 – and it comes in two colours DUNNES Stores designers have dropped a 'flattering' new co-ord - and it comes in two colours. The soft knit set is available online and in stores across the country. Advertisement 5 A cosy new co-ord has arrived in Dunnes Stores Credit: 5 The set comes in two colours Credit: The 'timeless' co-ord, consisting of a waistcoat and trousers, makes the perfect smart casual look. Shoppers can choose from a classic charcoal colour or a warm burgundy. The Soft Knit Waistcoat Top has a round neck and statement buttons down the centre. Its description reads: 'Made from a cotton-rich knit with a soft-to-touch finish, this waistcoat is cut to a flattering slim fit with a classic round neckline and a button-through front. Advertisement 'A timeless, easy-to-wear wardrobe staple.' Retailing at €20, the top comes in sizes 8 to 22. Style with the matching Soft Knit Wide Leg Co-Ord Trousers just €20. The retailer said: 'Made from a cotton-rich knit with a soft-to-touch finish, these trousers are cut to a trend-forward wide leg silhouette with a comfortable turn down waist for an adjustable fit. Advertisement 'Pair with the matching waistcoat (sold separately) for a cosy, casual look.' The sleek co-ord will take you from summer to autumn effortlessly. Dunnes Stores in frenzy over viral leopard print jacket Meanwhile, Dunnes Stores fans can't get enough of a leopard print jacket. The Savida Leopard Jacket is available in stores nationwide. Advertisement The viral jacket has been completely snapped up on the Dunnes Stores website in every size. Fashion lover Helena, who posts under @superbetty79, took to Instagram to share tips on styling the jacket. She said: 'My take on this beauty that everyone's been talking about — elevated, effortless, and SO wearable.' The statement leopard print jacket is oversized with large pockets and a statement collar. Advertisement The retailer said: "A trend-forward outer layer choice, this leopard print barn jacket is cut to a relaxed, boxy fit and features an oversized corduroy collar. "It is designed with a button-through front and over-sized patch pockets.' It is priced at just €40 and ranges in sizes XXS to XXL. Shoppers reckon the Savida jacket is very similar to the Ganni leopard print jacket costing €345. Advertisement The cute jacket can be styled with just about anything from jeans to dresses and skirts. THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit. Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'. During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains. Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges. The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town. "Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong. "Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas." The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960. They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed. "Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England." Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people. 5 The soft set will take you from summer to autumn effortlessly Credit: 5 Prices start from €20 Credit: 5 The co-ord is set to sell out fast Credit: Garrett White - Commissioned by The Sun Dublin
