New Look shoppers looking to nab a flattering dress for summer have been praising an affordable smock dress that is 'great to wear when bloated.'
With the summer season well and truly here now, there is nothing better than refreshing your wardrobe with some cute dresses that also flatter your figure. Luckily, New Look has one that fits the bill perfectly.
The high-street retailer's £15.99 Black Jersey Frill Sleeve Mini Smock Dress has been hailed as both "comfortable" and "flattering", and can be easily dressed up or down this summer, reports the Manchester Evening News.
This easy-to-wear mini dress is currently available to buy in eight different colours online - Black, Grey, Green, Blue, Red, Pink, Hot Pink and Bright Orange. Sizes range from a UK 6-22, depending on the colourway you purchase.
With its oversized flattering smock silhouette, it will hide any lumps and bumps that you might not want to accentuate this summer. Meanwhile, its crew neckline, short frill sleeves and soft cotton fabric, mean you will be kept nice and breezy.
