Next shoppers rave over 'flattering' linen dress that's 'surprisingly' good
Next has been absolutely wowing us with its summer collections this season. From bold graphic designs to delicate ditsy motifs, the retailer has nailed every trend perfectly. It's worth noting that numerous pieces tend to fly off the shelves rapidly. For anyone with holidays still planned ahead, or those seeking something suitable for the warmer climate we're enjoying, we've discovered the perfect purchase. The Linen Midi Dress is presently receiving rave feedback, boasting a flawless score from delighted style enthusiasts who have "fell in love with it." Whether jetting off overseas or remaining local, this 100 percent linen frock is guaranteed to be a refreshing option for those sultry summer afternoons when we require something both cooling and chic. Dropping to a fashionable midi-length hem, it also boasts an elasticated shirred waist for a snug fit, with one buyer noting it's ideal for those who "want to disguise tummies.", reports the Daily Record. The frock boasts a perfect five star rating (Image: Next) Complete with gathered shoulder straps, frilled edging and ribbon accents, it's a graceful and dreamy dress that will appear stunning when matched with sandals throughout the summer months. At the time of publication, Next's linen dress is available in sizes six to 26, including some tall options, in two shades - white and lilac - though the purple tone is selling more quickly. Next's Pure Linen Midi Dress has garnered nothing but glowing five-star ratings from style enthusiasts who hold it in such high regard that they are "surprised it's not gone off the shelves." One delighted review stated: "It's a gorgeous dress and very flattering on especially if you want to disguise a tummy. Slightly transparent on top but nipple covers do the trick. I'm surprised it's not gone off the shelves. "I have the white and I am pleased that the style will last many years in my wardrobe. The linen surprisingly and pleasantly doesn't get too wrinkly." The midi-length dress is also available in white Another satisfied buyer commented: "Bought for my daughter as we had seen it in shop, she fell in love with it, so bought her it, lovely dress everyone comments on it, looks lovely on, and very well made." Whilst someone else simply remarked: "Very pretty, good for a wedding guest or summer outing." Although there are currently no unfavourable reviews, which demonstrates the garment's appeal, it's important to note that, as one assessment above indicates, it is somewhat sheer. For certain customers, this might present a concern, so it's worth bearing in mind before making a purchase. Don't let Next's Linen Midi Dress slip by - it's available for €97.50.

THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit. Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'. During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains. Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges. The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town. "Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong. "Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas." The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960. They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed. "Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England." Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

New Look's ‘fabulous' £20 denim midi dress looks just like £1k Jacquemus version
New Look has slashed the price of its 'fabulous' bodycon denim midi dress that's a 'great fit' from £35 to £20, and it's the perfect alternative to Jacquemus' £1.1k version Although you might think of denim as a typically casual material, there's a fresh new take on the wardrobe staple that's perfect for both casual and sophisticated events – a denim bodycon dress. If the thought of bodycon anything fills you with dread don't fear, because we've found the perfect pick that's flattering and comfortable to wear. New Look's Navy Stretch Denim Square Neck Bodycon Midi Dress has a sleek silhouette and easy-to-style design, and it just landed in the summer sale, slashing the price from £35 to £20. Not to mention, it also looks very similar to the Jacquemus La Robe de-Nîmes Spoglio maxi dress, which is much pricier at £1,135. Whilst the Jacquemus one is a maxi length, the New Look version is actually more wearable thanks to its midi hemline. Working on all heights and body types, the shorter length means you don't need to worry about it trailing on the ground, restricting your movement or even just what shoes to wear with it. Instead, the midi hemline makes it much more versatile and easy to wear. Pair it with some sandals and a linen shirt for an easy holiday outfit, or some slingback heels and statement earrings for evenings out. The Stretch Denim Bodycon Midi Dress has a square neckline that's flattering on all bust sizes and offers plenty of support with its wide straps and stretch denim. The material is also brilliant for sculpting and smoothing your figure, giving a sleek, streamlined look. If you do prefer something a little less fitted, this Topshop Dropped Waist Structured Denim Midi Dress (£58) is the best of both worlds with a fitted bodice and a flared A-line skirt with lots of volume. We also love the Reclaimed Vintage Tie Back Denim Midi Dress in Indigo, which is £45.99 with an adjustable tie back and flowing midi skirt. However shoppers have been loving the fit of New Look's Stretch Denim Bodycon Midi Dress, rating it five out of five stars. One wrote: 'Lovely dress, nice length and great fit due to stretch in fabric lovely for summer.' Whilst another agreed: 'Fabulous dress - love love it!' The dress is still available in all sizes from a six to an 18, although there's no telling how long it will be available at the discounted price. Shop the Stretch Denim Bodycon Midi Dress for £20 now.
