It is worth noting that, while fashion fans couldn't stop singing their praises on social media, there are no official reviews on the New Look website as of writing.
This means that there is no negative feedback to report on, but it is possibly worth noting that the midi-length design might not be suitable for petite shoppers, so it's worth trying on before making a purchase.

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GEORGE Clarke has hit back at the Strictly curse as he revealed the 'real reason' he went public with girlfriend. Just hours before the news of his participation in the dancing series was unveiled, the 25-year-old YouTuber announced his relationship. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 George Clarke has hit out at the Strictly Curse saying that it won't affect him Credit: Instagram 7 He previously revealed that he is dating lingerie model Yasmin Amelia Credit: Instagram 7 The internet personality admitted he wants "full control" over the narrative of his relationship Credit: Instagram The online personality was the sixth star to have signed up to dance in front of the judges on Strictly Come Dancing. Just beforehand, he revealed that he was dating lingerie model Yasmin Amelia - also known as Yasmin Bennett. His fans on Reddit claimed that he was taken, but noted that he has usually kept his cards close to his chest when it came to his personal life. One wrote on the forum platform: "Caught me off guard because he is a very private person especially about his dating/love life. "Even on the pod he has expressed his desire to keep things private and off socials. "Often relies on the 'can't talk to women'/catfish story to dodge specific relationship questions." However, the star has now broken his silence over the timing, saying that he wanted 'full control' of the narrative. Speaking on the Useless Hotline Podcast, he admitted: "That's part of the reason why we wanted to say something. "Because the two options were, say something. You have full control over how it comes out." However, the star rubbished the infamous 'Strictly Curse', as he claimed that it would not affect him. Strictly's George Clarke 'gives away' who his pro dance partner is George said: "Whatever you say is basically how people find out, or it stays private." He then explained that he didn't want there to be any rumours or anything that could ruin his relationship. The star added: "[it] just sort of takes all the control out of your hands. "But then, I [will] just go on stream after that and be like, that's not true, by the way. "But, yeah, she's my girlfriend." He also said that his girlfriend is still her own person and is getting used to being thrown into the public eye. This comes after he may have accidentally let slip who he's partnered with for this year's series. On the podcast he also spoke about the audition process where he revealed that he was partnered with Lauren Oakley. He also admitted that the duo rehearsed for a full hour together, as he explained: "I've not met anyone apart from, I believe her name's Lauren, who was the pro that I met. "Because when we had a interview for it, so it's like an hour long interview, and then like an hour long dance session." Lauren has appeared on the show since 2022, and so far has competed with two stars – Krishnan Guru-Murthy, who placed 8th, and JB Gill last year. She took over from fellow pro Amy Dowden mid-season after she was forced to withdraw due to injury. 7 George was the sixth star to be announced to be taking part in Strictly Come Dancing Credit: PA 7 The star explained that he would address any rumours that come out Credit: Instagram 7 Fans on Reddit noted that the star has always been private about his personal life Credit: Instagram

Meghan Markle's brutal silence questioned as Harry leaves secret letter at royal event
Royal onlookers have noted Meghan Markle's ongoing silence amid her husband Prince Harry's recent troubles - despite continuing to promote her latest Netflix series Prince Harry is desperately trying to heal wounds with the royal family, but Meghan has stayed notably silent after his most recent olive branch. It has emerged that just days ago, the Duke left a secret letter at a royal event attended by King Charles and Queen Camilla. It is said that he asked a friend to discreetly leave a note and a wreath of red poppies at the Burma Star Memorial, to mark the national VJ Day commemorations. Notably, the letter was placed after Charles and Camilla left to avoid distracting from the service, which honoured the sacrifice of Second World War heroes who fought and died in the Pacific and Far East. Meanwhile, Meghan did not sign the letter. It's not the first time she's stayed quiet in recent weeks, as experts have questioned why she hasn't spoken out in support of her husband amid a 'devastating' boardroom battle. The Duke stepped down from Sentebale, the charity he founded to help children orphaned by Aids in Lesotho, earlier this year following a tense showdown with the chairwoman, Dr Sophie Chandauka. Harry was said to be devastated by the row, which saw all sides rebuked by the Charity Commission for allowing the war of words to play out so publicly. And many expected Meghan to publicly back Harry. But she has continued to hold her silence - and it's raised eyebrows amongst royal watchers. In her most recent Instagram post, Meghan pointedly continued to ignore the furore. The 44-year-old shared a video on Tuesday showing her preparing and plating up a lemon pasta spaghetti dish; prior to that, she shared a post promoting the upcoming second series of With Love Meghan. Expert Dr Tessa Dunlop told the Mirror: "Now that Meghan and Harry have signed a new Netflix deal ('looser' and apparently less lucrative than the previous $78m one but a deal nonetheless), might the Duchess find her voice? "Not the one she volubly uses to hawk As Ever wares (in conjunction with Netflix) but rather the voice Meghan famously re-found after leaving the Royal Family, the one that talked her truth to royal power and surely could talk her truth to the Sentebale fiasco? "No, really, why hasn't Meghan come out batting for Prince Harry in his latest round of verbal fisty-cuffs concerning his former African charity? After all, the Duke has consistently spoken out in support of his wife, establishing the precedent early on and against the wishes of his family when he condemned Britain's media coverage and insisted he had never before witnessed such a 'degree of pressure, scrutiny and harassment' from the press. "As it currently stands, Harry cuts a lonely figure. The Charity Commission 'identified a 'strong perception of ill treatment' swirling in the unhappy waters of his former charity, Sentebale. It was a terse ruling that exonerated no one; all parties remain incandescent, particularly the aggrieved prince, who insists the report has fallen 'troublingly short'. "In other words, the Duke of Sussex's nemesis, Dr Sophie Chanduka, is still at large, running Harry's former beloved Sentebale. The Duke could really do with some public TLC, especially from his wife, whose own issues with said Dr Chanduka were allegedly caught on camera at a polo match Sentebale fundraiser." It comes after Harry and Meghan confirmed they had extended their deal with Netflix, having signed a new "multi-year, first look deal for film and television projects". While the Duchess was quick to celebrate the signing, experts claimed that the deal is a downgrade for the couple.

Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham shrug off family drama with steamy display
Nicola Peltz and her husband, Brooklyn Beckham, appear to be shrugging off the ongoing drama surrounding his family as they showed their affection for one another Brooklyn Beckham showcased his love for wife Nicola Peltz on the set of her latest movie, and they didn't care who was watching. Just days after the couple renewed their marriage vows after three years, Nicola and the eldest child of Sir David Beckham and Lady Victoria made sure all eyes were on them as he visited her on a movie set. Nicola, 30, is set to star as Roxy in a brand new film, Pretty Ugly, alongside Mary Stuart Masterson and Jazzy De Lisser. But while it's claimed that she is the cause of the rift between Brooklyn and his family, the new role has an eerie similarity. Her character, a provocative influencer, causes a rift between a mother and daughter. But Nicola and Brooklyn certainly made time for one another when he visited the movie set. A snap showed Nicola and Brooklyn packing on the PDA as he leaned in to kiss her on the cheek while they kicked back on the edge of a car boot. In the snap, Nicola was dressed head to toe in black, with low-waisted sweatpants and a sweater. Meanwhile, in pictures obtained by the MailOnline Brooklyn, 26, opted for a more casual appearance, wearing a pair of cargo-style cream shorts, which he paired with a white T-shirt and cap, while his leg tattoos stood out for all to see. Elsewhere, Nicola took to her Instagram page to share a string of behind-the-scenes snaps from the upcoming movie, wearing a barely-there black bikini as she submerged herself in a huge swimming pool alongside her co-star De Lisser, for what looked to be a very tense scene. Last month, Stuart Masterson took to social media to share her excitement for the movie, with Nicola posting on Instagram: "Mary you're so incredible I'm so excited for this." But this week, Nicola said: "Pretty Ugly – I'm so grateful to have played Roxy." Brooklyn's visit to see Nicola comes after the Mirror revealed his family were facing fresh heartache after his vow renewal speech was revealed to us. During the speech, he "spoke movingly" of his wife in front of the 200 guests on August 2. A source close to the couple said: "He spoke from the heart - and at the centre of his heart is Nicola, whom he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family, who have really stuck by his side. He wanted to recognise them all, and was determined to do them all justice." News of the "heartfelt tribute" to Nicola's billionaire parents, Nelson and Claudia, will add to the agony of the Beckham family, who have been cut out of his life. It's understood there was no similar tribute to his own parents. During the intimate ceremony, Nicola wore a remodelled version of Claudia's wedding dress, with Nelson carrying out the event. The Beckham's are said to be "terribly worried" that Brooklyn is acting "desperately out of character". Meanwhile, Nicola has been accused of isolating her husband from not only his parents, but his extended family and friends, too. Brooklyn's entire family, including brothers Cruz and Romeo, sister Harper, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins, were noticeably absent for the ceremony despite his once close relationship with his family. While many feel Nicola has been isolating her husband and holding him "hostage", sources have been quick to dismiss this and insist this isn't the case. They said: "It's so rooted in misogyny. Everyone seems to forget Brooklyn is an adult man, fully capable of speaking out. Nicola would have respected all that he chose. It breaks his heart to see her painted as this vixen and viper."
