Frankie Bridge's ‘soft and comfortable' £22 maxi skirt is ‘ideal for when you're out with the kids'
Frankie Bridge has found the perfect outfit for busy mums, with her flowy maxi skirt that's 'ideal for when you're out with the kids' – and it's now on sale down from £35 to £22 With the schools ready to break up for summer (or maybe your little ones are already off) all mums know that you'll be spending a lot more time running around and out and about with them. For days when you want to look put together but still have plenty of comfort and movement, Frankie Bridge has tracked down the perfect wardrobe essential. Sharing it in her Frankie's Faves series on Instagram, the presenter showed off her Crinkle Textured Ruched Waistband Maxi Skirt, which is now on sale for £22.50 down from £35. Frankie added: 'Before I tried this skirt on I was unsure. I thought the thicker waistband was going to be unflattering but once I got it on I changed my mind! It's so soft and lightweight - ideal for when you're out with the kids in the holidays.' As Frankie pointed out, the skirt has a wide waistband which sits on your hips, and although this can seem like it would be unflattering, the ruching details actually help to smooth the area and create curves. The soft fabric has a subtle crinkle design to it, which means you can get away without ever having to iron it – always a bonus in a busy household! The Crinkle Textured Maxi Skirt also has plenty of movement and a breezy feel, which is great for spending afternoons running around in the sunshine without feeling too restricted. As well as being a great go-to outfit for mums on the go, it's also a fantastic outfit for holiday, and can also be easily styled for loads of occasions. You can wear the Crinkle Textured Maxi Skirt with a cropped vest or bandeau top with some sandals and a slicked back bun whilst abroad, or a crisp white shirt and some loafers for a smarter daytime look. An oversized T-shirt and some trainers would also effortlessly make it into an easy mum-on-the-go outfit. Thanks no doubt to Frankie's praise of the skirt (and its discounted price tag) the skirt is currently selling fast, with a couple of sizes already out of stock. Luckily there are other options around, such as this Topshop Shirred Waist Crinkle Full Skirt, which is slightly pricier at £42. We also spotted some similar silhouettes such as Pull & Bear's Panelled Midi Skirt, which is £25.99 and comes in three colours; white, black and brown. You could also snap up Abercrombie & Fitch's Mid Rise Bubble Hem Maxi Skirt if you want something with a little more volume and a more inclusive size range than the other options, which is currently down from £75 to £56.25.

Inditex Sales Slow as Economic Headwinds Hit the High Street
PARIS — Zara parent company Inditex is starting 2025 on its back foot, with lower-than-expected sales in the three months to April 30. Sales rose 4.2 percent at constant currency, a notable slowdown from the company's long-running streak of double-digit growth. The figure also fell short of analysts' expectations for 5.6 percent growth year-over-year. More from WWD Designer Vincent Van Duysen Opens Antwerp Home for Zara Home+ 4th Collection First Look: A New Zara at The Grove Kate Moss' and Bobby Gillespie's Zara Capsule Is All Rock 'n' Roll 'Following a very strong post-pandemic period, its sales base is now larger and its operating margin has reverted to above its long-term average. We expect a more moderate rate of sales and EPS growth this year and as such in our view valuation looks fairly full compared to some other retailers and also the luxury sector,' RBC analyst Richard Chamberlain said in a trading note. Despite macroeconomic pressures, Inditex signaled a more encouraging trend for the second quarter, with sales up 6 percent year-over-year at constant currency from May 1 to June 9. The parent company of Pull&Bear, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Stradivarius and Oysho saw tempered numbers in other key categories, with gross profit up 1.5 percent to 5 billion euros, while operating expenses were up 2.3 percent. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) ticked up 1 percent to 2.4 billion euros, while operating profit (EBIT) increased by 0.3 percent to 1.6 billion euros. Net income for the quarter rose 0.8 percent to 1.3 billion euros. The company is continuing to revamp its retail network. More than 130 smaller or underperforming stores across all brands are being closed, while net retail space is expected to grow by 5 percent. The focus is on larger, more modern store formats, including expansions at The Grove in Los Angeles and Noon Square in Seoul, South Korea. Store upgrades were also carried out across other Inditex concepts, including Massimo Dutti and Pull&Bear in London, and Oysho in Paris. New Zara stores have recently opened in Athens, Greece, and Cambridge, Massachusetts. Improving its services, Zara launched Travel Mode for customers in the UK, Italy, and Japan, a service allowing delivery of online purchases to wherever a customer is staying. The rollout will soon extend to France, Spain, and Turkey. Inditex is also advancing its logistics infrastructure to support global growth. A new distribution center in Zaragoza, Spain, is scheduled to open this summer. The upgraded logistics system is now fully operational at Zara and is being implemented across other brands, including Bershka and Pull&Bear. Inditex will also see a board change at its upcoming annual meeting on July 15, with José Arnau stepping down and Roberto Cibeira, CEO of Pontegadea, set to take his place.

Zara owner Inditex's early summer sales disappoint as tariffs fuel uncertainty
Zara owner Inditex missed expectations for first-quarter sales and early summer trading on Wednesday, as tariff fallout complicated the fast-fashion retailer's efforts to maintain strong growth. Concerns about resurgent inflation and an economic slowdown triggered by US President Donald Trump's erratic tariff rollout have already dampened shopping enthusiasm in the United States and other major consumer markets. Inditex's competitors have also experienced a sluggish spring. The gorup has 23 outlets in Ireland, including Zara and Pull & Bear, and employs over 700 people. The company reported a slower start to its summer sales, with currency-adjusted revenue growth of 6 per cent from May 1st to June 9th, compared to analysts' expectations of 7.3 per cent, and down from 12 per cent growth in the same period a year ago. READ MORE Revenues for its first quarter ending April 30th were €8.27 billion, missing analysts' average estimate of €8.36 billion, according to an LSEG poll. Net income increased 0.8 per cent in the quarter, to €1.3 billion. Inditex shares were down 4 per cent in early trading, making it the second-worst performer on the Stoxx 600 index. Inditex did not provide a reason for the weaker sales growth. In a statement, it called its performance 'solid', having labelled it 'very robust' at its previous results announcement in March, when annual sales were up 10.5 per cent. 'Overall weaker sales growth is a combination of demand volatility in Q1, but we need to take a step back and look at mid single-digit growth as actually being quite good in this environment,' said Bernstein analyst William Woods. Inditex rival H & M's sales have also struggled, growing by just 1 per cent in March compared to 4 per cent in the same period a year earlier. Its December-February revenue grew by 2 per cent, below analyst forecasts. Rainy weather in Spain, which accounts for 15 per cent of Inditex's global sales, has also likely hurt the company's performance, according to Bernstein analysts. Spain experienced one of its wettest ever springs, with Madrid recording three times its usual levels of rainfall for the season. With volatility in foreign exchange markets driven by trade risks, Inditex said currency fluctuations will have a bigger impact than previously expected, predicting a 3 per cent negative effect on its 2025 sales, compared with the 1 per cent it flagged in March. – Reuters (c) Copyright Thomson Reuters 2025
