I'm a size 14 and 5ft 10 – I've found the perfect tummy-friendly summer dress that's as comfy as a tracksuit & costs £20

However, one fashion fan has said she's found the perfect summer dress for anyone who's self-conscious of their figure, and it's only £20. 6 A fashion fan has shared her top summer buys from Peacocks Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 Due to being made of thick jersey, it's super flattering on the tummy Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 6 The £20 dress also comes in red Credit: TikTok/@user604251860 Not only that, but the patterned midi dress is so comfortable that it's like wearing a tracksuit. Peacocks shared an ad on their TikTok page showing the woman trying on a range of their new summer offerings, with the zebra-print number top of her wish list. As an added bonus, the £25 dress is currently reduced to just £20 on the Peacocks website. "It's a great summer dress and also wearable because here you've got thicker straps," she said, referring to the fact you can easily wear a bra underneath without the straps showing.

And there are also buttons at the front that don't undo - meaning they won't gape even if you're top heavy. The dress also comes in red and white, and is also incredibly comfy in the hot weather. "This dress, because of the fact that it's jersey and very comfortable, means you can just put this on whenever," she added. "It feels like you're wearing a tracksuit version of a dress." She also explained she'd sized up because of her height, but said you might not need to do that if you're not on the taller side. I tried two fabulous new dresses from Dunnes Stores, they're perfect for special occasions and great value- "Either way, it's a fab dress!" she concluded. And it wasn't the only dress she fell in love with as part of the haul. There was also a white one that caught her eye, thanks to its strappy top and billowing skirt - which, once again, hides the tummy area. It also has pockets - a feature everyone appreciates! Next up was a patterned number with a "loose fit", that comes with a matching belt if you want to cinch it in at the waist. "I love this one!" she gushed. Hottest fashion trends of 2025 Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest trends from the high street. The East/West Bag Baguette bags have had a good run, after returning from the 1990s' shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker to modern-day fashion icons, like Hailey Bieber. In 2025, the East/West bag is a similar but elongated shape and has long, thin straps that are easy to throw over your shoulder. They've been on runway models' arms at nearly ever designer show - think Burberry, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta - and are hitting the high street now, too. Powder pink Bright fuchsia pink had its day after the release of Barbie in 2023 and now the more polished and expensive-looking pale shade is taking over for 2025. Pantone may say that it's the year of Mocha Mousse, but the catwalks say otherwise! From Prada to Erdem, the subtle look was all over the spring/summer catwalks, worn head-to-toe or on its own. If the sugary shade is too girly for you, then look to sharp suiting for a androgynous take on the colour. The shell jacket The '80s classic is back, but with a sleek and minimal new twist for 2025. We all know we're likely to see rain for most of spring, so your practical coat of choice should be a cagoule jacket. Depop revealed one of its big trend predictions for this year is retro sportswear, with surges already seen in '80s windbreakers'. Seen everywhere from the stylish streets of Copenhagen to the Miu Miu catwalk, now mums who have an emergency raincoat crumpled underneath their pushchair are very much in fashion! The turn-up jeans While the shape of jeans remains the same for this year and barrel-legs will still be everywhere, the way we're styling them is different. This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy denims into turn-ups. For this look, size doesn't matter, so while deep turn-ups are a hit from jean trend-leaders Citizens of Humanity, a slight fold is still just as good - but only as it's just one single fold. Peep-toe shoe Get your pedicures booked in sharpish, as this season your toes are the main event. After a long hiatus, the peep-toe has been welcomed back into the fashion fold, with brands like Hermes, Miu Miu and Tory Burch showing plain and embellished footwear in this style. From mules to pumps and clogs (yes, clogs will be around too!), there are lots of different styles that are set to sweep the high street. Sheer blouses See-through looks have always lived on the catwalk, but have rarely filtered into everyday life - until now. Designers Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford loved sheer looks on their S/S '25 catwalks and M&S even had sellout success with its black sheer pencil skirt last season. Expect to see more sheer looks lining supermarket aisles and high street shops in the form of skirts, tops and frocks. "These new summer dresses at Peacocks are the perfect choice," the video was captioned. And people in the comments section insisted they'd been easily influenced by the video - and shot to the website to place their orders. "I saw your video and went and bought the black dress with fitted top," one wrote. "I love it!" "I got a lovely dress from here," another insisted. "I just got the 14 in black, I love it!" a third agreed. "I ordered the red," someone else said.

‘Running to Primark' cry shoppers as they spot perfect summer top for holidays and it's a bargain at £6
SPENDING money on a holiday can be expensive enough, so finding bargains for your suitcase can make all the difference. And shoppers have been flocking to Primark after spotting a "cute" floral top for just £6 that will be perfect in the sunshine. 2 Shoppers are loving this £6 summer top in Primark Credit: TikTok/@primark_lincoln 2 The floral strapless top can be dressed up or down The retailer is known for its viral products, and this ruched bandeau top might just be another hit for fashion fans. The bargain buy is especially ideal if you're looking to avoid tan lines, and can easily be dressed up or down. The strapless top, which also comes in ivory and black, is abailable in sizes XXS to XL. Describing it on the website, the Primark team say: "This strapless bandeau top in its floral print is perfect for adding some versatility to your wardrobe. "The ruched detailing throughout the body adds texture and a comfortable fit. "Ideal for pairing with skirts, shorts, jeans or even over shirts, this top is a versatile and stylish choice to add to your collection." Staff at the retail giant's Lincoln store said fashion fans should "get ready to be obsessed" with the new top that they "know is going to be popular". And it looks like they're right, as a short TikTok clip showing it off quickly racked up 120,000 views. Most read in Fabulous One shopper cried: "Running to Primark tomorrow then." Someone else echoed: "On my way tomorrow, see ya then." Fashion fans 'need' Primark's new £14 linen trousers - there's two colours to choose from and they're great for spring "I need", gushed a third. A fourth wrote: "Not only reasonable prices BUT THAT STRAPLESS." "These are so cuteeee", said a fifth. Meanwhile, a sixth sighed: "Okay so why isn't my Primark like that then." The stunning top isn't the only reason to dash to Primark right now though, as shoppers are also loving two new pairs of gorgeous trousers. The summer trousers have been touted as 'super comfy and lightweight', and they're also purse-friendly. Bargain hunters are sure to be left beaming as the Primark store in Lincoln has taken to social media to show off the new affordable trousers, which are priced at just £14. Alongside the short clip, which gave shoppers a close-up look at the high street buys, an employee from the Lincoln store beamed: 'The linen trousers EVERYONE needs!!' Read more on the Irish Sun The trousers are available in black and cream, and not only are they cute and bloat friendly, but they're perfect for keeping cool in summer too. The Primark employee further added: 'The weather's warming up, that can only mean one thing… linen trouser time!!' Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Fieldsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.

Shoppers race to grab ‘dress of the summer' from supermarket – it's bloat-friendly & perfect for holidays or weddings
WITH summer on the way, we're all looking for ways to revamp our wardrobes. And there's one 3 Shoppers are racing to nab this must-have summer dress Credit: Supplied 3 It comes in this season's colour and is bloat-friendly Credit: Supplied 3 You can pick it up alongside your food shop Credit: Supplied A new summer dress from Tesco ticks all of the boxes to make it 'dress of the summer.' Sharing the dress on their TikTok account, Tesco said: "Perfect summer dress. Gorgeous tiered midi dress with embroidery in the colour of summer," and we couldn't agree more. The stunning F&F It features wide straps to offer support and comes in an inclusive size range from a 6 to 22. READ MORE ON FASHION To give it some extra glam, it also has off-the-shoulder Broderie arms to match the tiered skirt. The The midi dress can be dressed up with wedges for an elevated look or worn with trainers for a casual outfit for a day in the park. Tesco bosses say: "Step out in summery style with this pure cotton tiered midi dress, designed with pretty broderie details and a scalloped hem. Most read in Fabulous "Featuring wide straps, a tiered skirt, and a flattering bandeau style fold over top, it looks perfect with wedge heel sandals and a straw hat." The dress costs £36 and can be I'm 5'3 and a size 10 - Tesco is killing it with their summer co-ords, my haul was amazing & I got 25% off everything too It's not the only Tesco fashion buy shoppers are loving. Fashion fans have insisted the new Tesco polka dot two-piece looks "stunning on" and hailed it as a must-have for summer. The black polka dot midi skirt is priced at £22.50, while the matching puff sleeve cropped top will cost you £16 Both pieces come in sizes six to 22 and are available in-store and on the newly launched F&F website. How has Tesco's F&F upped its game By Fabulous' Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend ZARA has become a high street staple in recent years thanks to its hot-off-the-catwalk designs and affordable prices. But recently those prices have risen with the brand's popularity. However, if you are looking for high fashion inspired outfits with low price tags you needn't drag yourself to your local shops, just head to the supermarket instead. F&F has come a long way from selling a few backs of T-shirts and fluffy dressing gowns and is now a must have shopping destination for thousands. They produce good quality, long lasting and on trend clothes that puts others to shame. F&F is filled with Zara dupes and other looks inspired by our favourite shops that will set you back less than £50 - and you can get them while you pick up your dinner. I for one love F&F denim, it's durable, fits really well and has all the best silhouettes. So even if you're not looking for reasonable prices but just want good clothes, get yourself to Tesco. They can be worn together, or pair the top with jeans and heels and the skirt with a Skims dupe bodysuit to get extra wear out of them. Describing the co-ord online, the Tesco team say: "Complete with a split hem detail, this midi skirt adds a classic touch to your daily essentials. "Designed with an all-over polka dot print, the relaxed silhouette and gathered waistband make it ideal for dressed-up events. "Team with the matching top for a statement look. "From its polka dot print to its short puff sleeves, this top is a on-trend piece in your dressed-up wardrobe."
