Primark's 'stunning' £26 summer dress that 'looks unreal on'
Primark shoppers are praising an "elegant" dress after spotting it on TikTok. The retailer is well known for its affordable, on-trend products - and it may have a new hit on its hands.
The Paula Echevarria Lola V-Neck Maxi Dress, priced at £26, gained attention on social media; it comes in black, green or red and in sizes XS to XXL. The dress is described as an "elegant V-neck maxi dress with ruffle sleeves."
Fashion influencer Perrie Sian (@perriesian) recently took to TikTok to share a range of products from Primark, including the maxi dress in black. The post was captioned: "Part 2 of my mega Primark try on haul!! INSANE!!"
Wearing the Paula Echevarria Lola V-Neck Maxi Dress in the clip, Perrie said: "This dress is sensational...this is insane. First of all, the fabric is so stretchy, second of all the cut here [neckline] and the cut at the back - are you actually kidding me."
She added: "This is insane. I love the fact that they've lined it down to here [mid thigh] and then you've got the sheer layer. Just gives it that bit of an extra... extra bit of something."
She went on to say: "This is phenomenal. If you want a black maxi dress on holiday that's not like a satin one, that's not a crochet one, this is insane. It's so nice. I'm wearing a small, it fits like a dream."
The clip racked up more than 702k views, 23.6k likes and hundreds of comments from excited shoppers. Among them, one person said: "Nicest Primark haul I've seen."
A second wrote: "That first black dress - I bought it today...Looks unreal on you, so excited to wear mine!" A third added: "Got the black dress today! Love it!"

Australia's most 'wholesome' bachelor wins hearts across the country with his very candid message: 'This is so cute'
Australia's most 'wholesome' bachelor has drawn praise across the country after he shared a heartfelt video looking for a potential suitor. Perth man Sam said he was ready for a long-term relationship after having 'no luck on the dating apps'. In a video viewed more than 580,000 times on TikTok, the 28-year-old said he thought he would try a different way of finding his future love interest. 'This is my dating application video on TikTok,' he said. 'I'm blind in one eye, I like video games, hiking, camping, adventures, photography, vlogging, and travelling. 'I'm preferably looking for a long term relationship.' The young man said he was looking for somebody about his age and in Australia. 'So this is my third take of this video and I really hope that this reaches the right people and hopefully something comes out of this,' he said. 'So, yeah, feel free to drop any, feel free to drop a few comments. 'And, feel free to shoot me a DM or if you're a gamer, add me on Discord. I also don't smoke or do drugs or have kids. 'I'd like someone who I can travel the world with and make memories with.' Many social media users said they empathised with Sam's dating troubles. 'Dating apps are a horrible experience. You seem so lovely! I hope this reaches the right person,' one woman wrote. 'This is wholesome bro, take it from someone who's been where you are and is dating the most amazing girl, you're gonna find the right girl!' one bloke said. 'Keep your standards high, don't change for anyone and remember, you can't say the wrong thing to the right person! Good luck bro!' 'My husband is also blind in one eye! i hope you have better luck on TikTok, dating apps suck,' a third said. 'Fingers crossed you can find a girl that aligns with your values! you seem like such great value.' Others were sure the video would reach an apt bachelorette. 'This is the sweetest, most wholesome thing I've ever seen! good luck out there and I wish you all the best and you will find someone perfect for you,' one woman wrote. 'You seem like such a kind genuine soul, i hope you find someone who deserves you and makes you happy,' another wrote. 'You seem like such a lovely guy! The right ones definitely out there good luck Sam we're all rooting for you!' a third added. One man congratulated his bravery. 'Luck to you, tops for putting it out there like this.

Meghan Markle doesn't care if Brit 'haters' winced at her twerking birth video
While most people were delighted to see it the candid video shared by Meghan Markle - others were less impressed as Meghan got some backlash over her dodgy dancing with Harry Meghan Markle's video of her twerking in the delivery room before daughter Lilibet's birth divided fans this week but she seems to have put the embarrassment behind her. To honour her daughter's fourth birthday Meghan posted the video on her Instagram account this week- giving fans an inside glimpse of the day the young princess was born. Prince Harry also featured in the video wth a twerking Meghan Markle in the delivery room before Princess Lilibet was born in 2021. The candid moment shows Meghan in the late stages of her pregnancy, dancing around a hospital room to the song Baby Mama with Harry by her side, in an attempt to induce her labour. Alongside the divisive video, Meghan wrote: "Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work - there was only one thing left to do!" Despite the backlash over her dodgy dancing with Harry to the soundtrack of Starrkeisha's Baby Mama song, defiant Meghan is thrilled by the reaction in America. A source told MailOnline: "Meghan doesn't care about the haters in Britain calling her vulgar. Americans thought the twerking video was hilarious and relatable." One person wrote on X: "Oh my. That's really just awful," while another user joked: "They are cringe to the max… I feel nauseous." Others claimed the Sussexes were making a mockery of their royal titles by sharing the video, with one writing: "Good grief, these people have titles. Ruining the reputation and respect of the Royal Family, one Instagram post at a time." However, others sharing their thoughts on the video, praisied their fun and caring relationship and were delighted to see it. One person voiced their support Harry and Meghan, writing on X: 'This is everything! Harry on beat and Meghan dropping it like it's hot. They look like they have so much fun together.' A source close to the Sussexes added: "Meghan is very pleased with the video. In the UK everyone's reaction has been a bit prudish but everywhere else, particularly in America and especially with young people, it has been a huge hit." Meghan is about to launch a series of new products as part of her As Ever line – including rosé wine. The source added: "She and her team count it [the video] as a 'win', which can only be a boost for sales. Her new products are marketed at Americans and not at the UK market." Meghan and Harry celebrated Lilibet's fourth birthday on Wednesday, with Meghan posting a series of unseen family photos to her Instagram account to celebrate the special day. Meghan shared a black-and-white snap of herself cuddling Lili, while they both sported windswept hair as they sat together seemingly on a boat.

‘Gut feeling more important than social media likes', says festival promoter
John Giddings, who has run the Isle of Wight Festival since it restarted in 2002, said performers need to be able to 'deliver' to a crowd and not just keep their attention on a phone screen. The 72-year-old, who represents artists ranging from Blondie to Phil Collins, told the PA news agency: 'It's gut feeling, really. I've learned the hard way in my years in the music business that some people might have sold a lot of records, but they're useless when it comes to performing. Sting performs at the Isle of Wight Festival 2008 at Seaclose Park on the Isle of Wight (Yui Mok/PA) 'You want to book acts that have a catalogue that's going to entertain an audience for an hour, hour and a half, and, secondly, someone who's capable of performing to an audience of 50,000 people in a field, because they need to be able to project to entertain. 'When you look back on who we've had – Blur, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, the (Rolling) Stones – they're all capable of delivering, even if it's pouring with rain, which it doesn't that much on the Isle of Wight, thank God. 'But you've got to be prepared for everything and it's quality of performance, really. 'I do know artists who've had a million views on TikTok who can't sell 300 tickets at a club in London. Just because all these people want to watch them on socials doesn't mean they're going to pay money to go and see them in a field.' Mr Giddings – who also manages through his Solo music agency touring shows for some of the world's biggest names such as Madonna, U2 and Beyonce – said that as well as classic acts, he needs to keep an eye on the breakthrough bands. Rod Stewart performs on day four of the Isle of Wight Festival 2017, at Seaclose Park, Isle of Wight (David Jensen/PA) He said: 'Because I'm older, we book acts from past, present and future, there's a discussion in the office as to what new bands are coming up, and you're projecting as to what they're going to be doing in the year's or nine months' time. 'I'll never forget when I booked The Darkness when they first started out, they were supporting someone at Brixton Academy, and I went down there, and I walked in, and Justin (Hawkins) was sitting on the shoulders of his roadie, walking through the audience, playing the lead solo. 'I thought, 'blimey, this is the music I grew up on', and then they came and played the Isle of Wight and blew everyone away.' Mr Giddings said he was always on the lookout for new acts, adding: 'If the truck driver comes up with a good idea and it's a better idea than mine, then go for it, you can't be that arrogant to just believe what you think yourself. 'We've got 15 stages on the Isle of Wight, so whatever stage you're at in your career, you can play one of those stages.' Mr Giddings said one of his highlights from the Isle of Wight Festival was Jay Z and added: 'I remember thinking 50,000 people couldn't go wilder, and then Kanye West walked on with them and it exploded, and I turned to my left, and there was Beyonce standing there – I thought 'It couldn't get better than this'.' Damon Albarn of Blur performs live on day three of the Isle of Wight Festival 2015 (David Jensen/PA) Mr Giddings said that he remembered the classic Isle of Wight Festival of 1970, which saw 600,000 hippies descend on the island causing the event to be outlawed for 32 years, and added: 'I remember walking over the hill, it was like going to the Battle of the Somme and you could smell them before you saw them.' After 23 years of organising the Isle of Wight Festival, he said: 'I absolutely love it, which is my downfall because I work all the time, I never think I've actually had a job. 'There's nothing better than sitting in an office in Fulham in November and it's wet and windy outside, and you're imagining putting an act on in a field on the Isle of Wight in June, and then you see it nine months later and people are going wild to it. 'It's the most satisfying thing ever to provide entertainment for people.' The Isle of Wight Festival 2025, which is being headlined by Sting, Stereophonics and Justin Timberlake, runs from June 19 to 22 at Seaclose Park, Newport.
