M&S' 'sparkly' Christmas dress gives the perfect 'hourglass effect'
Stressed with nothing to wear for your Christmas party? Luckily we’ve spotted the perfect dress that’ll get you the attention you deserve - and according to reviews, it ‘flatters every figure.’
The head-turning Sequin Column Dress is priced at £49.50, and comes in three lengths: short/petite, regular and long to suit all body shapes, as well as a range of sizes from a six to 24 - although some sizes have already sold out due to the dress being so popular.
It boasts a midi-length design, with an elegant high neckline and long sleeves which are great for keeping you nice and warm on chilly nights. Made with added stretch for comfort, it’s a lovely choice for Christmas day too - even after a huge festive feast.
Not only is it comfy, but it’s super flattering too thanks to the ruched detailing at the waist which shoppers say ‘cinches you in,’ creating the ultimate ‘hourglass effect.’
It’s received plenty of five-star reviews on the M&S website too, with some customers calling it ‘utterly gorgeous’ and ‘great for the festive season and beyond.’
Kate Middleton swears by £19.99 rosehip oil that helps 'reduce wrinkles & scars'One delighted customer who found the dress ‘boosted her confidence’ added: “Love this dress. It is so comfortable and has a high impact too. Wore it last weekend to an event and my husband said wow when he saw me in it!”
A second said: “I bought this at the last minute for an event and I’m so glad I did. I’m a curvy size 10/12 and 5’7” and I bought a size 10 regular, which hit at a perfect, slightly longer midi length. It hangs and fits beautifully, with some forgiving stretch. The dress received many compliments at the event- a proper “wow” outfit!”
While a third wrote: “Fabulous dress, love the silvery shine. Fits true to size and has plenty of pzazz! Really sparkles under the lights.”
M&S styled the dress with two different shoe choices. Firstly, with a pair of £55 gold platform heels which are great for dancing the night away in, and then with these stand-out £125 Knee High Boots - perfect for a chic festive daytime look.
Whilst most reviews were super-positive, it’s worth noting that one customer had to get the dress tailored due to it being too long. The review said: Fabulous dress but far too long. Photo does not depict an average woman’s height. The dress is almost maxi. I have paid a tailor to shorten it as I loved the dress so much.”
If you're looking to jump on the metallic silver trend, without sparkles, another dress we're loving at the moment is this stunning £45 Silver Off Shoulder Bodycon Midi Dress from River Island.
