Shoppers are rushing to buy £23 lightweight New Look dress before the heatwave hits 35°C
With temperatures set to climb as high as 35°C, shoppers are rushing to pick up a £23 lightweight vintage-style tea dress from New Look.
Though we are approaching the end of summer, temperatures are still soaring, with the weather forecast predicting 35°C this week. Most retail stores have begun shifting their lines to autumn-focused clothing, but with the heatwave ongoing, most fashion will be on the hunt for lightweight clothing.
A vintage-inspired dress priced at £22.99 is among the most sought-after buys right now on New Look, with 56 sold in the last 48 hours (at the time of writing). This floral tea dress "features short flutter sleeves and delicate lace trim". The colours on the dress are perfect for the transitional period into the new season.
Pink, orange, and white flowers pop on the midnight black dress. The A-line cut creates a classy silhouette, making it perfect for any occasion.
According to the product description, the material is "lightweight, woven" and is made from "polyester and nylon". Available sizes range between 8 and 16.
There are currently no reviews on the website. Alternatively, TU is offering the Mono Polka Dot Print Waisted Corset Midaxi dress for £14, down from £28.
The product description read: "Make a statement this season with this beautiful black dress, designed to bring effortless elegance to any occasion. Featuring a timeless polka dot print, it falls to a flattering midaxi length that creates a graceful silhouette.
"The sleeveless design and scoop neckline offer a light, feminine feel, while the corset-inspired detailing adds subtle structure and a contemporary touch.
"Perfect for everything from garden parties to holiday evenings, it pairs effortlessly with sandals during the day or heels for a more polished look."
At the time of writing, the dress has been ordered over 100 times in the last 48 hours and is the number two bestseller on the site.
However, stock is running out quickly, with only three sizes left: 6, 8, and 10. The dress currently has four stars, with one happy customer commenting: "Very happy with the fit and finish of the garment … delighted with all my recent purchases from TU.
"I have replaced my wardrobe as I have just lost 4.5 stone in weight." Another said: "The dress was nice enough fit and style wise but I personally did not like the fabric and this sent this one back.
"That sort of scratchy manmade netting is not something I can wear without a sensory overload. If you don’t have that issue I am sure you will love this dress as definitely can be dressed up or down."
Elsewhere, Roman is selling a more colourful Floral Print Frill Wrap Midi Dress for £42, down from £60.
