After an unusually warm couple of weeks, people across Ireland may have been tempted to ditch the coats and embrace our summer wardrobe early. The bright, balmy weather has certainly put us in the mood for summer, and with holiday season just around the corner, it's the perfect time to start shopping for outfits. Next, which has 20 stores across Ireland, is leading the way with their stunning collection of summer dresses - and one particular piece is already flying off the shelves and earning 5 star reviews from fans.

This cream and green palm print mini dress from Next's Kew Collection ticks all those boxes. Crafted from a breathable linen-blend, it keeps you cool on warm days without sacrificing style. The flattering scoop-back neckline, practical side pockets, and breezy split side hem make it as functional as it is chic. Inspired by the lush beauty of the Royal Botanical Gardens, the palm print adds a refined, nature-inspired touch. Completely machine washable, it's as low-maintenance as your holiday should be. With a 4.5 out of 5 star rating on the Next Ireland website, the Cream and Green Palm Dress is quickly becoming a must-have for summer getaways - and for good reason.

Despite its linen blend, shoppers are pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to wear and maintain, saying that it "doesn't crease" in the suitcase. Another review said: "Perfect fit. Lovely fabric, although has linen mix it doesn't crease too much and if it does they fall out pretty quickly. I love the designs and bought three of the different colours and patterns." Despite a majority of positive reviews, one person said: "This garment fitted ok but the arm holes were huge. I wear a size 18 to fit my chest but my arms are normal size. It just looked awful about an inch or more each side would have to be altered for a better fit." Another recommended sizing down, writing: "Love this dress, so comfortable, easy to wear and hopefully it will keep me cool on my holidays. Sizing is on the big side, so did need to return for a size 6, which is perfect." For more information or to check out the different colourways, click here.
