Marks and Spencer 'really hitting the mark' with 'gorgeous' striped dress

Marks and Spencer shoppers have heaped praise on the brand for "really hitting the mark" with a "gorgeous" clothing range.

Marks and Spencer is an iconic British brand that, despite being founded in 1884, remains relevant among fashion lovers thanks to its wide array of stylish clothing, accessories, homeware, beauty supplies, furniture and more. Like its high street competitors, M&S operates multiple Instagram pages to best showcase its newest stock and product drops.

The store boasts millions of followers, and it regularly works with celebrities and influencers to further maximise the audience it reaches - and its relevancy in an increasingly competitive industry. Recently, M&S caused a stir after sharing a video of model and DJ Tara Griffin sporting its Striped Round Neck Midi Tea Dress and its Tie Neck Long Sleeve Blouse on Instagram.

Captioning the footage, Marks and Spencer penned: "A vibrant blouse and standout dress to get you noticed this New Year's Eve." The items proved popular on the hit social media platform, racking up more than 141K views, as well as heaps of likes and comments from enamoured shoppers.

Rhiannon said: "M&S you really have been hitting the mark recently….some gorgeous, modern wearable stuff and I think the style tables have turned….lots of my friends are saying the same too".

Allanah said: "So gorgeous", while Phoebe said: "Besotted! So classy and gorgeous" and Juliet commented: "I love the colour of the blouse."
