On trend." Is supermarket fashion the new high street? DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in: The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family. Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street. Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year. So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful? Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative. A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year. Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.

Fashionistas race to M&S for bloat-friendly linen dress that ‘doesn't cling' & is ‘designed for a perfect summer's day'
THE weather might be very up-and-down at the moment, but warmer temperatures are definitely creeping in. So, fashionistas are getting their summer wardrobes ready - and have unearthed a bloat-friendly dress from Marks & Spencer that will be 'perfect' for when mercury rises. The M&S Collection Linen Rich V-Neck Strappy Midaxi Dress, which has spaghetti straps and a tiered skirt, is receiving rave reviews. It is available from sizes 6 to 24 in a regular length - and some shoppers are even speculating that the British retail giant might release 'petite' and 'tall' renditions too. One fashionista said that the linen-rich frock is 'designed for the perfect summer's day'. They added that it is 'well made in a cool fabric with pretty stitched detail'. Another buyer reviewed: 'I'm very happy with this dress as it isn't see through. 'It has a nice feel to the material and fits well with just enough looseness, so it doesn't cling in hot weather. 'It will be nice for my holidays on the beach.' The dress, which is available in white, will set you back £49.50. A blurb on it reads: 'This linen-rich dress is a timeless style for sunny days. 'It's designed in a regular fit, with a flattering v-neckline and adjustable spaghetti straps. 'The swing silhouette and tiered midaxi-length skirt create a breezy feel.' However, you won't be able to purchase it online for a while, so you'll need to head to your local store to find it. M&S has been forced to suspend online orders and freeze recruitment due to a severe cyber hack. The upmarket high street brand was plunged into "pure chaos" last week, with staff having to use their personal devices for work. 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. Employees have no idea whether hackers are still inside the M&S system, it's been claimed. Sources are even speculating that M&S had no plan for how to deal with a cyber attack and it could be months before it fully recovers. "We are working day and night to manage the current cyber incident and get things back to normal for you as quickly as possible," chief executive Stuart Machin said in a statement. "Thank you from me and everyone at M&S for all the support you have shown us. We do not take it for granted and we are incredibly grateful. "Our teams are doing the very best they can, and are ready to welcome you into our stores - whether you are shopping for food or for fashion, home and beauty this bank holiday weekend. "Thank you for your support and thank you for shopping with us. We will continue to keep you updated."

M&S' 'stunning' new £49.50 summer dress has women asking 'where is it from'
Marks and Spencer has been seriously impressing fashion with its new season edit. With everything from dresses to trainers , it's very on-trend for spring and summer. Which is why it will come as no surprise that another new addition is being snapped up quickly. The high street firm only recently dropped the Pure Cotton Bubble Hem Midaxi Dress , but it's already described as "in demand" online. Retailing at £49.50, this black frock features a sleeveless bodice that flows into a midax-length bubble skirt. Offering a "statement silhouette", it's no wonder why other fashion fans say they get "so many compliments when wearing this dress." Read more: M&S' 'comfy from first wear' £45 trainers shoppers say are 'comparable with Skechers' Read more: Next urged to stock 'more colours' of £37 trousers shoppers 'can't stop wearing' There's gathering in the skirt that adds extra movement, while the cut-out back detail offers an elegant touch. Crafted from a breathable pure cotton material, it's a breezy layer that won't cause you to overheat when the temperatures rise. Finished with a back-button fastening, the dress has also been fully lined for comfort. With its eye-catching design, it's suitable for fancy events with a pair of chic kitten heels and clutch bag, but can also be worn casually with sandals during the day. Designed in petite, regular and long lengthways, this £49.50 M&S dress is still available to buy in sizes six to 24. However, we'd advise acting fast, as some sizes are beginning to be snapped up rather quickly. Despite being a new addition, the Pure Cotton Bubble Hem Midaxi Dress has left many shoppers impressed, as they say it is "stunning" to wear and has other women asking "where it was from." A pleased customer said: "So many compliments wearing this dress. The dress is beautiful , I felt really nice in it and lots and lots of women asked me where it was from." A second review read: "Couldn't resist this dress despite having to try on several sizes before finding best fit (it's on the small side). The design quality becomes apparent once on with a drop waist, great if you are tall and long in the body, and the bubble hem. "It's also nicely lined and the cut out back still enables you to wear a bra. Please continue to provide such design quality please M&S." Another delighted customer said: " Stunning dress with a beautiful skirt shape and flattering bodice. Fresh summer weight cotton." Someone else gushed: "Fabulous fit (but size up) and beautifully made, looks stunning on. " It is worth mentioning that a few shoppers have advised others to size up, as the fitted bodice means it runs on the smaller side. One shopper said: "Really lovely dress but the fitted bodice and side zip means the sizing comes up really small. Went into local branch and looks as though every one in stock had been tried on, waiting for the next size to delivered with fingers crossed." Purchase M&S' new Pure Cotton Bubble Hem Midaxi Dress for £49.50 here . We have also spotted a very similar style at Next, as the retailer is stocking its Sleeveless Racer Puffball 100% Cotton Midi Dress , available in white and black, for £42. If you'd prefer a less voluminous skirt, then we have spotted this Stone Sleeveless Bubble Hem Racer Midi Dress from River Island for £39.
