Product Description
Last time we checked, sizes still ranges from a six to 26, with a few tall sizes sprinkled in there, but some of them were beginning to sell out fast.
For anyone who can't find their size in stock, then we have spotted a few alternatives worth checking out, such as this Ivory Fruit Print Strappy Midi Dress that is still a summer standout item for £45.
Meanwhile, River Island's bold Atlas collection for summer '25 is a huge hit with shoppers online, with the collection's £56 Blue Atlas Printed Linen Blend Maxi dress currently a "trending" piece.

Fashion deal of the week
Fashion fans looking for a dress that will standout at all their summer events will need to hear about this one from Roman.
The high street chain's Royal Blue Rose Print Button Detail Maxi Dress, hailed as "perfect for the warmer seasons", is now on sale for £35 after being dropped from £48 - saving 27 percent overall.
With its "stunning" all-over rose print and modest midaxi length hemline, this particular frock will look perfect at any fancy occasions this season. Since it offers a bold design, we'd advise pairing it with nude-coloured heels and neutral accessories.

Complete with buttons down the front, the high street firm also advises pairing its £35 sale dress with a denim jacket on those summer days when the weather is a little bit chillier.
Beloved for its vibrant and bold style, one five-star review read: "One of the five-star reviews read: "This dress is amazing. I've had so many compliments.
"Lovely Silky material, floor length and such vibrant colours and so easy to just wash and wear. Suitable for weddings and occasions or just perfect for holidays and summer days. A real head turner... Love it."

Singapore's grandest library has Roman columns and a high domed ceiling – and yes, it's open to the public
It brings to mind Beauty and the Beast with its multitude of towering Roman columns, high domed ceiling lined with arched windows, and rustic wooden desks that are uniquely curved to create a circular formation in the middle of the room – but you won't find this grand library anywhere in Europe. Instead, you might be surprised to learn that it's sitting hidden within plain sight at Singapore's very own National Gallery, the biggest arts and culture museum in the city. See also: Geneo, a new mall and lifestyle hub in Singapore with unique European cathedral-inspired architecture Unlike most other public libraries in Singapore, the Rotunda Library & Archive isn't part of the National Library Board (NLB), but rather fully owned by the museum itself. Don't expect to see children's picture books or steamy romance fiction novels here – its vast collection contains art journals, diaries full of sketches and photos, research material, and archives from Singapore and the region dating back to as early as the 19th century. Safe to say, you won't find the same sort of rare historic reads at your everyday neighbourhood library. Even if diving deep into the history of Southeast Asian art isn't really up your alley, this two-storey library annexe is a gorgeous work of art in itself that's worth marvelling at. There's even a sliding ladder that you can use to reach the volumes on the higher shelves – cue Belle in that bookshop ladder scene – a rare sight in Singapore's libraries save for Library@Orchard, which is currently closed till 2026 for a revamp. If you've attended past editions of annual light festival Light To Night, you might have entered the Rotunda to watch kaleidoscopic projections being cast onto its high domed ceiling past nightfall. But during quieter daytime hours, this library has a whole different vibe – one that feels almost sacred, with beams of sunlight streaming through the windows and warmly enveloping the pristine white interiors. Other than the communal circle of desks in the middle, there are also little reading nooks in various corners of this majestic-looking space. You're free to bury your nose into all the titles on the shelves to your heart's content, but since the Rotunda Library is a non-lending reference library, you won't be able to loan them out of the premises. Book-lovers will be thrilled to know that entry to the Rotunda Library & Archive is free-of-charge, and tickets to the National Gallery are not required. There's just one little catch: the library is only open weekdays from 10am to 12.30pm, and 2pm to 5pm, with the exception of public holidays, so those on a standard five-day office work week will only be able to visit on a day off. Do note that those aged under 16 years will need to register for a visit if unaccompanied by an adult. National Gallery Singapore website.

Nobody's Child 'pretty' summer dress that sold out rapidly is back
Nobody's Child - loved by Holly Willoughby, Fearne Cotton and Louise Thompson - has brought back its beloved Cora dress and it's already selling fast When high-street favourite Nobody's Child dropped the return of the internet-breaking and summery buttermilk yellow dress, our shopping team did a collective shriek of joy. The brand is beloved by celebrities and fashion fans alike and has a tendency of quickly selling out its dreamy dresses. And Cora, its best-selling summer frock, is one of those. Costing £79, the Butter Yellow Linen-blend Cora Midi Dress sold out in just days online when it first launched earlier this year and as it's already labelled 'in demand', we can certainly see this happening again. The popularity of this dress can be attributed to its pastel-yellow hue, which is a major trend this year, as well as an ultra flattering shape that hugs the wearer in all the right places and floats into an A-line skirt. It's an undeniably timeless piece. With a sleeveless design and square neck, the dress is fastened with fabric covered buttons at the front, along with a concealed zip. A scoop waist and enhances the shape, while a lined skirt falls beautifully at just above the ankles. Available in sizes four to 18, the Nobody's Child number isn't just available in yellow. It also comes in black, olive green, ditsy floral, striped white and black linen and pinstripe blue. Plus it not only comes in a midi length, but also a mini version too - we love the Brown Drop Waist Cora Mini Dress, £75. If shoppers aren't keen on the Cora midi, Next has a lovely alternative in its White/Blue Floral Square Neck Puff Hem Midi Dress which, as the name suggests, comes decorated in blue flowers on a white background. While this dress doesn't have a button-up front like the Nobody's Child dress does, the Next dress costs £86 and has a similar silhouette. It also has a bubble hem for added swish. Alternatively, Marks and Spencer's Pure Cotton Textured Midi Waisted Dress, £35, has a square neckline and shirred bodice, flowing into an A-line skirt. Although, the Cora dress from Nobody's Child consistently receives high praise on social media with people commenting on how gorgeous it is. The brand has recently introduced reviews to its site and one glowing four-star shopper raved: "Lovely dress well made & very pretty, looks like the picture, lined so not see through, all good apart." Their only qualm was that it simply didn't suit them as they said: "It did not suit me, my hips are too wide & the fullness on them made them look even bigger unfortunate." It's important to note that another customer remarked how the bust fit was 'tight' - although that being said, the brand recommends sizing down if between sizes to avoid it being too baggy. If in doubt, refer to the size guides. Someone else, who bought the dress on ASOS, loved it and said: "It's a cute dress - lovely colour." With heels and some statement jewels, this yellow ensemble could be the perfect option for a summery wedding, while sandals and a denim jacket will dress it down for a casual day out. Cora isn't the only viral dress the brand has restocked as its Brown Felicity Midi Dress, sported by Louise Thompson last year, is now back for £99, alongside its alternative pattern variations that make us seriously swoon.
