The must-have ASDA George dress for summer that will set you back less than £40
Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - learn more A black and white dress from Asda has been deemed the go-to look for summer after being dubbed 'flattering on all body types' and 'effortless, stylish and seriously versatile' by top stylists. George at Asda's black and white shell print maxi dress is a perfect day-to-night dress - and it only costs £38. With a shell pattern, the look is extremely of the moment with high end brands like Mint Velvet and Anthropologie currently stocking very similar designs but at far steeper prices. Mint Velvet's cotton, V-neck dress features frilly shoulders and a cinched waist band with added brown accents but costs £150. However, for those who want to join the shell trend there is a much cheaper and arguably more stylish option on the rails in Asda. The open back dress dress from George handily features adjustable buckle straps and has two side slip pockets making the look not only chic but also practical. Suitable for day and night, the bargain summer staple is made of breathable cotton meaning it is ideal for sunny getaways and hot days in the city. The dress can be easily styled down for more casual outings by matching it with a pair of leather sandals or a pair of Mary Jane flats. Helen Flanagan heaped praise on the dress when she recently teamed up with the affordable brand for a promotional Instagram post. The actress was impressed by the bargain piece as her friend tried it on and twirled around to show off the flowing skirt. Standing up to get a close up view of the item, Helen felt the material and said: 'Babe, I love this. And, it's such good quality as well isn't it?' The friend agreed with Helen and added: 'I just can't believe it's from George.' Though George is not widely considered the go-to place for fashionistas it is an open secret among those in the fashion world that the supermarket regularly stocks affordable season must-haves. Asda outperforms other supermarket clothing ranges in the UK for good reason and now, more celebrities and influencers are starting to uncover hidden gems at the fashion label. UK personal stylist and fashion expert Lisa Talbot is also a fan of George's summer collection. Lisa said: 'The George at Asda summer dress collection is a brilliant blend of style, practicality and affordability, perfect for navigating a UK heatwave and then packing for your holiday.' Speaking specifically about the must-have frock Lisa added: 'This monochrome printed maxi dress from George at Asda is the ideal warm weather hero, it's effortless, stylish and seriously versatile. 'The fitted bodice and full skirt create a flattering silhouette for all body shapes, and the statement straps add a contemporary edge. 'Throw it on with sandals for day, or add a wedge and earrings for dinner al fresco & at this price point, it's a wardrobe win." The popularity of George could be set to sky rocket too with the opening of their first 'concept store' at Crown Point Retail Park in Leeds a few months ago. The new shop opened on 10 May to huge fanfare as the newly-wed Spice Girl, and Leeds native, Mel B turned up to support the venture. As well as clothing the store also stocks homewares including the popular 'At Home with Stacey Solomon' collection. However, the focus of the new concept store is certainly fashion with George's spring/summer collection, which is fronted by 1980s supermodel Yasmin Le Bon, taking centre stage. Shell Print Open Back Buckle Strap Maxi Dress £38 Shop George at Asda are currently stocking a stunning black and white shell print dress which is a dupe for Mint Velvet dress which costs over three times as much Discussing her involvement with the affordable brand, Yasmin said: 'Fashion should be for everyone. George is a success story to be proud of. 'I am passionate about clothes that can lift your spirits, and having fun with fashion should be for everyone. Wearing something you love can bring joy and a pop of colour can brighten your day. It's a privilege to be a part of this celebration! 'Shoppers want that high-end fashion feel without it having to cost the earth. George takes trends and makes them work in the real world. 'Mixing high-end luxury and high-street fashion isn't new, but it keeps getting better. There is something for everyone at George.' Liz Evans, Chief Commercial Officer of George and Retail Stores, added: 'We 're incredibly excited to have Yasmin Le Bon as the face of our summer fashion collection. 'Yasmin's timeless appeal resonates across generations, making her the perfect ambassador to represent our vibrant, inclusive, and fashion-forward pieces this season. 'As proud members of the wider Asda family, we're thrilled to be celebrating our 60th birthday—and partnering with an icon like Yasmin, who is also celebrating her 60th year, makes this milestone even more meaningful.'

Asda slumps to a £600m loss as it struggles to cope with its mounting debts
Asda slumped to a £600million loss in 2024, underlining the scale of the challenge facing boss Allan Leighton. The beleaguered supermarket, whose George at Asda fashion range is modelled by Yasmin Le Bon, fell into the red after a £180million profit the year before. It has a mounting debt pile, and said an expensive IT overhaul had been difficult. Sales slipped 3.4 per cent – news that came the same day as industry data showed its market share fell year-on-year to 11.5 per cent for the quarter to June 14, from 12.4 per cent. Executive chairman Leighton, 72, last month insisted his efforts were seeing 'green shoots' after the grocer cut the price of thousands of products and improved stocks. He said: 'Market share today means nothing to me. We're in a turnaround situation, restoring a business to an enduring proposition.' Asda is aiming to be 7 to 10 per cent cheaper than rivals within a year.

Fashion fans go wild for 90s classic which is back in George at Asda for just £10 & they come in a number of fun colours
IF you grew up in the 90s and were obsessed with jelly shoes, you may be delighted - or horrified - to see the trend is firmly back in action. From celebs such as Rihanna to catwalk models, everyone is back on the jelly hype - and even George at Asda has jumped on the trend. 7 If you dare to once again rock the playful jelly shoe, the supermarket is selling pairs for just £10. The slip-on, ballet-style flat comes with a lightly gripped sole and a diamond cut out design. You can also choose from five colours: white, charcoal, pink, green and orange. At just a tenner, it is a fraction of the price of a £85 designer version by Ancient Greek Sandals spotted on Net-a-Porter. This pricey alternative also comes in a range of colours and is 'made for the beach with their rubbery, washable PVC.' The George at Asda affordable lookalike has already caught the attention of fashion TikTokers. One creator shared her find in-store, saying Asda is 'pulling through again,' sparking over 20,000 likes. Abby, who posts under @abbybella3, shared: 'I need to share with you girls what I've just bought. I am so happy with them. 'You girls are all gonna be like, 'What the f*** has she bought now?'' She revealed she had the expensive Net-a-Porter pair on her wish list for ages, but they had been out of stock and she also questioned the price. I've been desperate for a pair of £85 mesh jelly shoes for summer - I found the EXACT dupe for a tenner 7 Abby was delighted to spot the George at Asda dupe. She added: 'I just randomly went to Asda and I picked up these for £10: a pair of jelly mesh jelly shoes. 'They look identical to the ones from Net-a-Porter. But they're not £85. They were £10. 'I'm so happy with them.' Abby acknowledged that they may not be everyone's cup of tea, but she didn't care. 7 7 She continued: 'I know you're all thinking, 'Yuck, they're hideous.' 'You wait until you see me style them, because you're all gonna change your mind. Promise you. 'But I love them, so I had to share because they were £10. 'I'm so happy with them. I cannot wait to style them.' People were quick to comment and say they wanted to snap up a pair. One wrote: 'I'm running to Asda for the orange ones if they've got them cos WOW!' Another added: 'Much prefer them over crocs'. How Asda has upped it's game By Fabulous' Fashion Director Tracey Lea Sayer Take a whizz round the aisles in Asda it is hard not to notice how good the George at Asda clothing range is at the minute. Add into the mix their recent collaboration with fashion designer Roksanda, celebrating 40 years of London Fashion Week, which is full of the designer's signature colour blocking dresses, oversized Borg fleeces and bold stripe co-ords, it is easy to see why the brand is on fire! All proceeds from the range go to The British Fashion Council to help promote young designers, so a win win! There also seems to be a return to quality in the clothing range. 'Style Stories' with fashion influencer Erica Davies is a capsule collection of Autumn must-haves which delivered not only on style, but on great pocket friendly prices starting from £7.
