One maxi - or midi, depending on your height - skirt in particular has caught the attention of fashion fans this week thanks to its "90s vibes" and day-to-night potential. The Black Tailored Kilt is priced at £25 and is available in sizes eight to 24, with many sold out online already. Describing it on the website, the Tu Clothing team say: "Smart and right on trend, our black kilt has been designed in a tailored style, with traditional pleated detailing throughout. "It comes in a maxi length with a side buckle fastening - perfect for wearing with boots or loafers" Tu Clothing's stylist Chrissi has since recommended it to shoppers and admitted she's obsessed with the "cool buy". She added: "[It's] really, really versatile. You can wear it with a big chunky boot, just a T-shirt, some simple jewellery. It's grungy, it's edgy, it's kind of 90s vibe, very cool. "But if you want more of a London gritty edge, you could wear it over jeans, or maybe a knit. It'll take you through to autumn. "If you want to give it even more of a twist, you could pair it with a shirt. Makes it a little more office friendly, so you can go from day to night in it. "Maybe add a big hoop or a big necklace to take it through to dinner. Every way, it's good. It's so versatile, I love it." I'm 5ft3 & a size 12-14 - my 7 Tesco dresses are an absolute bargain & perfect for a last-minute wedding guest outfit And she's definitely not alone, as fashion fans are going wild for the Scottish-inspired skirt too. One cried: "I love my new kilt. Super trendy and ideal for the new season. Good quality and a great price as well. Very impressed." "Very smart looking skirt for smart and casual wear. Easily dressed up or down", wrote a second. A third added: "That's definitely on my list. I want to be channeling my inner 'Claudia Winkelman in Traitors' this AW!" "Ooh gorgeous, just ordered one!!! Can't wait", gushed a fourth. A fifth said: "Wow! I have to have this statement skirt, it's gorgeous! I had one like this years ago!" Meanwhile, a sixth chimed in: "So cool, Autumn cannot come soon enough!" But if you're not ready to give up summer fashion just yet, the supermarket's got you covered with bargains there too. Shoppers are going wild for a five-star Sainsbury's dress that's only £15, flatters pear shapes and makes curvy shoppers "feel confident". As well as being purse-friendly, the dress looks strikingly similar to the Everett Linen Dress, which is priced at £298. This makes the Tu dress a whopping £283 cheaper. And a £26 frock that's perfect for summer getaways is flying off the rails.

The Best of the 2025 BBC Proms: 20 picks, from Chineke! to Mozart
Every year, the BBC Proms runs the risk of trying so hard to please everybody that they end up pleasing nobody. The complaints are many and varied: too much (or not enough) non-classical music; too many TV tie-ins (do we really need a Prom built around The Traitors – July 26 – even if Claudia Winkelman is the presenter?); not enough UK-based ensembles from outside London; not enough (or too many) orchestras from around the world; and so it goes on.
