River Island's 'perfect' £39 midi dress looks 'classy and stunning'
River Island patrons are lavishing compliments on a "stunning" dress they've seen online. The retailer is well known for its trendy fashion offerings - and it may have just introduced a new must-have.
The Brown Bow Halter Neck Midi Dress, tagged at £39, boasts an alluring bodycon style with a halter neck, tasteful midi length, and an eye-catching bow feature. Available in sizes from S to XL, this piece is a blend of 92% Polyester and 8% Elastane.
Shoppers are advised to care for it by ironing cool and washing at no more than 30°C, with specific instructions to avoid bleaching, tumble drying or dry cleaning.
River Island took to Instagram to share a number of products worn by fashion influencer Perrie Sian. Among the options was the Brown Bow Halter Neck Midi Dress.
The post was captioned: "We can't choose a fave. What's your pick from @perriesian's summer wardrobe?" Garnering over 1,400 likes, the images sparked enthusiastic comments from the audience.
Feedback included remarks such as "Love!!" and "Beaut!!", while another admirer commented: "Love them. Especially the brown dress. I can't find it though online," reports the Mirror.
Compliments kept rolling in, with one shopper remarking, "Looks classy and stunning." Another simply stating, "Love and the sandals."
When picking favourites, a customer expressed their choice succinctly: "Brown dress." Another said eagerly: "Love them all," and an additional comment read: "You just look so perfect in every way."
Other shoppers have been quick to compliment the additional outfit choices showcased in the photos. One commented: "I love the shorts and top and belt, where is the belt from I can't find it."

Another shopper expressed their fondness for a particular ensemble: "Love the third outfit." Meanwhile, another customer said: "Can't find the striped dress online."
Some customers have turned to the review website TrustPilot to post their opinions on River Island, especially regarding the larger sizes, which could be something to consider when placing an order online. One reviewer remarked: "Lovely quality but not great sizing."
A different buyer noted: "The quality of most clothes I've tried on are good... but the sizing is HUGE! ! I recently bought some new UK size 6 shorts, skirts, jeans and trousers and they slid down my hips and legs!
"They wouldn't stay on my hips! The dress was huge on me too! I've had to return most of the order (kept the UK size 4 items)."
For those looking elsewhere, New Look offers the White Strawberry Print Tie Back Satin Mini Dress for £27.99, while PrettyLittleThing has the Baby Pink Bust Detail Pleated Shift Dress for £50. Next has the £36 Cream/Black Polka Dot Mini Sleeveless Racer Stretch Linen Blend Dress.

Amy Hart's heartbreaking fertility struggle as she tries for second baby
Love Island's Amy Hart has revealed that while she and husband Sam Rason are trying for another baby, she has faced a secret fertility struggle - admitting it's 'hard' to talk about. Amy Hart has admitted that while she'd 'love' more children, she's struggling to conceive this time around due to a fertility struggle. The former Love Island star, w ho already shares son Stanley with husband Sam Rason, has shared that doctors have said her BMI is higher than optimum for getting pregnant, meaning she is now trying to lose weight in order to become a mum again. 31-year-old Amy rose to fame on the dating show in 2019 and is hosting the Love Island Podcast again this year. She explained to Mirror: "I'd love more children. We're trying at the moment. It's obviously not been as simple as it was with Stanley, but I'm manifesting and doing all the right things. !I'm doing intermittent fasting to try and lose some weight, because though my BMI is not crazy high, it's higher than what's recommended for the optimum weight for getting pregnant." She continued: "I feel like at the moment it's quite hard to talk about online. Once, hopefully, I have some good news, then I'll be able to share more and help others." During the exclusive interview, below, Amy also discussed how she is balancing life as a mum and the new series of Love Island, which kicks off on Monday. Amy, how are you? Busy, balancing work and mum life? You know, I like to try and be two people – I don't like to blur the lines of work and mum life. I like to keep my days with Stanley work-free and the days I am working, my family or my husband's family help out. My childcare arrangements are a bit crazy but Stanley has a great network of people. The other day I said to him, 'Who's your best friend?' And he was like, 'Auntie Jane!' Do you feel pressure to portray motherhood in a certain way online? No, I'm quite lucky in that Stanley is quite straightforward. People think that I don't show real motherhood, and I'm like, 'Well I'm showing my motherhood.' Because I chose not to show him crying, having a tantrum, not showing him if he ever went to the hospital, and people say that's not real life. I'm like, 'I just have boundaries with my child.' My guiding light is, if my husband put this on his story of me, would I be annoyed? If the answer is yes, I don't put it there. What's the funniest thing Stanley has said or done? Oh, it's probably more that he just has to run everywhere he goes, full pelt! And his speech is so funny. Everything is 'that's so cool' or 'oh goody'. He just keeps us laughing, constantly. And how's married life with Sam? It feels just like it did before, we both feel quite free. We are in such a good place, we have such a good time. We always say that we both knew we would get married at some point, but we never thought that we would meet someone we got on so well with.

I'd love more children. We're trying at the moment. It's obviously not been as simple as it was with Stanley, but I'm manifesting and doing all the right things. I'm doing intermittent fasting to try and lose some weight, because though my BMI is not crazy high, it's higher than what's recommended for the optimum weight for getting pregnant. I feel like at the moment it's quite hard to talk about online. Once, hopefully, I have some good news, then I'll be able to share more and help others. Any behind-the-scenes secrets from working on the Love Island podcast? I've heard it's gonna be the most dramatic series yet. I'm a superfan, so I almost, don't predict what happens, but I'm like, 'Oh I love this part.' But apparently that's all going to change this year, it's going to be completely different. We watch the episode live, so there's no way we can know about the drama ahead of the podcast. When we go on the pod, all our live reactions are fresh. What do you think of this year's islanders, who's your favourite? Well, there's a former British Airways hostess who started at Gatwick just like me, so that's really special. I think we know some of the same people. We love an air hostess. I'm really looking forward to seeing her. Are you still friends with islanders from your season? I love Amber [Gill], and everyone else, it's a bit like work colleagues. I don't live in London. I sort of have my own life down here. I love having a chat and seeing their news on Instagram, and when we see each other it's like no time has passed, but we don't live in each other's pockets. That's just life and part of growing up. How would you describe your confidence now compared to when you were on Love Island? I was about to jokingly say, I'm a lot heavier! But talking about confidence, I was only 57 kilos when I was on Love Island , and I was very self-conscious of my body, still. I wouldn't wear bandage dresses because I didn't think I had the body for it, whereas now, if I like a dress, then I will wear it. I also want pictures with my little boy on holiday, in the sea and on the beach. I don't want there to be a lot of, like, missing pictures and videos of his childhood, because I was a size 14. Making memories is more important.
