Shoppers race to buy Alison Hammond's maxi dress that's ‘flowy' in muggy weather
If you've been looking for a dress that's comfortable, flattering and easy to wear, then your search is over thanks to Alison Hammond. The TV presenter recently attended a music event in London wearing a gorgeous flowy maxi dress from Scamp & Dude, and good news; it's still available to buy.
Alison's exact dress is the Pink Leopard Tie Front Maxi Dress, which you can pick up in an inclusive range of sizes for £99. If you want to snap up the exact print Alison is wearing you'll need to be quick as sizes are rapidly selling out, however the exact same dress also comes in four other patterns for you to choose from.
Made from a lightweight floaty material, Alison's maxi dress is the perfect pick for those in-between weather days. With three quarter length blouson sleeves and a tiered skirt, it gives you a little extra coverage when it's chilly, whilst still being floaty and lightweight enough for the humid, muggy conditions.
The Pink Leopard Tie Front Maxi Dress also has a flattering V-neckline with a tie fastening which you can leave open to bare some skin, or fasten into a bow if you'd like to be a little more covered up. It also has pockets on each side, which everyone knows is the ultimate addition to any dress.
You could just as easily style it with some sandals and sunglasses for an al fresco meal on holiday or a spot of sight seeing, or throw it on with some heels and a bold lip for an evening event. Alison opted to style hers with some trainers and a pair of 90s-style sunglasses for a cool, effortless look that fit the music part perfectly.
If your size is currently out of stock in the Pink Leopard Tie Front Maxi Dress, we did manage to find some other great alternatives on the high street to shop. Over at Roman, the Pink Abstract Print Shirred Waist Maxi Dress is £48 and comes in sizes 10 to 20, with eight different prints and patterns to choose from.
Meanwhile New Look's Pink Floral Print Satin Midi Dress is now £11 down from £34.99 with sizes 8 to 22 still available. Finally at ASOS you can get your hands on the Only Curve Maxi Dress In Animal Print for £24.50 down from £32 which is perfect for more casual daytime vibes.
If you want to get your hands on Alison's exact Pink Leopard Tie Front Maxi Dress though, you're in good company, as the dress is a major hit with shoppers. In fact it's so popular it currently has a solid five star rating, with one saying: 'My favourite dress. Love that it's not tight and flowy in hot weather.'
Another agreed: 'Beautiful dress so many compliments.'
Whilst a third added: 'Bought to wear in the evening on holiday. Lovely floaty dress and great colours.'
Others also praised the fit, writing: 'I love this style of dress, and this one is another winner. Super flattering, beautiful print. Thank you for making such wonderful clothes!'
Another said: 'Such a lovely, comfortable dress. Beautiful fabric that hangs well. I love dresses with pockets!'
With someone else chiming in: 'I have these dresses in all colour ways - they're the coolest dress on warm days but keep warm on cooler days. Easy to wear and hides the bloat on days when needed!'

If you're looking for a summer blouse to add to your wardrobe, New Look's Ganni-inspired denim top has been reduced by 25% in a limited time offer Made popular by cool-girl Scandi brand Ganni and loved by celebs such as Daisy Edgar-Jones and Dakota Johnson, tie-front poplin blouses blew up over the past year and became the item to get your hands on. However, the original white tie blouse will set you back £165 and £185 for the leopard version. Luckily for us, New Look's Blue Short Sleeve Tie Front Denim Top is a fraction of the price in the brand's summer sale and looks just as chic. Normally priced at an already affordable £29.99, it's now 25% off, bringing the price down to £22.49. This denim blouse is a great way to add a little fun and style to your everyday looks. The bow tie-front gives it that girly, playful feel, while the relaxed fit of the blouse keeps things comfy. The peplum hem adds a flattering design feature that is ideal for pairing with high waist items like midi skirts or jeans. Made from a soft blue denim, this is perfect for warm weather dressing and sunny days. The puff sleeves also add a touch of glam to the look that smartens up the denim. Not to mention that puff sleeves are one of the biggest trends of the past couple of years. Whether you're keeping things casual at the office, heading out for dinner with girls or have a low-key summer weekend, this is the kind of blouse you'll be reaching for again, and again. To style it, we suggest going for a double denim look and teaming it with a pair of similar wash straight leg jeans and studded ballet pumps. Equally, you can team this blouse with a pair of tailored trousers for an office look, or with a gingham mini skirt for a summery picnic-print fit. If you're looking for similar style tie-blouses, Nobody's Child has reduced its White Tie Front Blouse down from £59 to £36. While H&M has a more boho chic offering with its affordable Flounce Blouse, priced at £14.99.
