Shoppers love New Look's 'really pretty' dress for summer with its 'flattering' cut and lovely print
As spring turns into summer and fashion lovers update their wardrobes, expect to see lots of 'trending' milkmaid dresses throughout the warmer months. The popular style was everywhere last summer, and it's set to return this season.
Shoppers looking for a new take on the style have lots of dresses to choose from. One contender is New Look's £25.99 Black Berry Print Slit Hem Milkmaid Midi Dress. Other options include Next's £42 Ditsy Floral 100% Cotton Puff Sleeve Milkmaid Mini Dress, ASOS' £32 Esmee puff sleeve midi beach dress in black, and Boohoo's £19.80 Cotton Milkmaid Mini Dress.
While each of the dresses could impress shoppers, New Look's option might be a standout for shoppers looking for an "incredibly sexy" look. That's how it has been described by an impressed customer.
New Look's product description reads: "A berry print elevates this black milkmaid midi dress with a quirky spin". Trimmed with frills and finished with neck ties, "it flows freely to a slit hem," and shoppers love the "sexy" slit hem. Unfortunately, some sizes are already sold out, so some people may have to wait for a restock.
For shoppers looking for more sizes, New Look offers the Black Berry Print Milkmaid Midi Dress in sizes 18 to 32. There's also a Maternity Black Berry Print Slit Hem Midi Dress.
Praising the Black Berry Print Slit Hem Milkmaid Midi Dress, one buyer wrote: "Lovely dress. This summer dress is great! It's airy, has a very flattering cut, and the slit on the leg is incredibly sexy." Another pleased shopper commented: "Beautiful. I fell in love with this dress when I saw it on a New Look Facebook advert.
"I went in store to look for it, I couldn't find it so I ordered online. I'm so pleased with it." Someone else praised: "Cute dress, really pretty." A different reply read: "Beautiful fabric, nice and light for summer nights, leg slit shows off just enough, the tie around cleavage shows them off nicely and it is the perfect length and hugs in all the right places"
Unfortunately, there aren't any other reviews yet for shoppers keen to read more feedback before making their purchase. However, shoppers could check out the retailer's reviews on TrustPilot.
The retailer has a 'great' score on the platform, with an average score of 3.9, but there are some negative comments. For instance, one shopper claimed: "Not sure what is going on with New Look but quality and sizing have declined and price gone up.
"I buy from both the tall and regular section. I'm telling you the tall is actually regular. I ordered 3 tall denim dresses. Nearly £30 each for the thinnest material ever certainly not denim. All sizes totally off 18 just fit but not usual my 14 to 16. Dress barely covered my bottom."
Someone else commented: "New Look has a good selection of up to date styles and fair prices. What let's them down is the returns process. Sizing can differ massively depending on material so you may have to exchange or return. Returns take far too long with little communication. Not good enough."

Asos reintroduces support programme for next generation brands

Online platform Asos has announced the return of its Asos Supports platform, a programme dedicated to supporting the next generation of creative talent in fashion and culture. In its expanded format, the initiative intends to uplift emerging brands through funding, collaborations and mentorship; build creative and cultural partnerships with diverse communities and 'culture-shaping' individuals; and back next generation talent among students and graduates. For the return, Asos has partnered with the (Fashion) Minority Report on the ScaleUP initiative, which looks to 'bridge the gap between the fashion industry and global majority-owned brands'. For the first edition, By Grace Ambrose, Reign Studio and Sondro have been selected to take part in the nine-month programme, and as such, will receive guidance from industry experts and opportunities to receive funding. One of the participants will also earn the chance to sell their collection via Asos. A further partnership will be between Asos and Graduate Fashion Week, which will work together to scout graduating emerging talent to co-create exclusive collections for the Asos e-commerce site. With this, Asos said it is sponsoring the fashion week's Styling and Creative Direction Award in honour of former creative director, Sarah McGreevy. Finally, Asos will continue to support The Sourced Collection, with which it will unveil a new collaborative capsule of 14-pieces, each co-designed by both teams and sold via Asos. The e-tailer will further provide mentorship, marketing amplification and talent support to aid in the scale of The Sourced Collection.

Next shoppers rush to buy £118 coat reduced to £49 that's perfect for sudden downpours

Next shoppers rush to buy £118 coat reduced to £49 that's perfect for sudden downpours The hooded coat has been reduced by nearly 60% in the Next sale, and it would be a perfect find to store away until the autumn Shoppers can save almost 60% on the Khaki Green Premium Long Padded Hooded Coat (Image: Next ) Now that summer is basically here, fashion fans are likely contemplating their warm weather wardrobe, often featuring breezy linen outfits. However, this season also presents the perfect opportunity to hunt for off-season steals to stash away for the chillier months. One such steal is on offer at Next, where the Khaki Green Premium Long Padded Hooded Coat has been massively discounted by nearly 60%. Originally priced at £118, it's now going for a cool £49, which means shoppers can pocket a tidy saving of £69. This chic khaki coat is up for grabs in both regular and petite sizes, ranging from XS to XXL. Showcased online by fashion icon Rochelle Humes, the 'stylish' garment is made from a fabric designed to withstand the elements, ensuring you remain dry during unexpected showers. Featuring a snug longline silhouette, the coat boasts a hood and generous pockets for functional flair. There is also a grey version available, currently reduced to £55, down from its original price of £118. Elsewhere, Uniqlo has cut the cost of their Seamless Down Long Coat to £129.90 from £159.90.

The lining keeps you cosy and warm and the hood doesn't blow down in the wind." However, one shopper gave the Khaki Green Premium Long Padded Hooded Coat a two-star review, expressing disappointment that it wasn't as warm as expected. They wrote: " The coat looks very cosy and warm but sadly it's not, which is very disappointing. There are big gaps within filling so you can easily feel the cold and wind." Next's 'lightweight yet cosy' £118 coat slashed to £49 is perfect for storing away until autumn (Image: Next ) They also criticised the fabric quality, saying: "Quality of fabric is poor. The dirt sticks to it. I washed it only once (after two weeks of casual wearing) as per instructions on the tag but you can barely notice it's cleaned. I don't like giving bad feedbacks but this coat is not cheap so I'd expect better quality from the brand."

Somebody else mentioned: "As described, a stylish warm long coat."
