Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has found the perfect occasion dress, and it is currently available with a 15% discount. The stunning printed maxi dress from Karen Millen, which she wore to Aintree earlier this year, is ideal for summer weddings, race days, garden parties, graduations, and awards ceremonies.
The Dress: Mono Geo Silk Cotton Woven Strappy Dress
The Mono Geo Silk Cotton Woven Strappy Dress by Karen Millen strikes the perfect balance between formal and understated. It features a flattering silhouette with a fitted bodice that accentuates the waist, before flaring out into a voluminous maxi skirt. Subtle piping details around the waist create a defined shape, while oversized bow details on each shoulder add a playful touch.
The dress comes in an abstract geometric pattern in shades of grey, making it a great alternative to black for those who want a darker colour that remains appropriate for weddings and summer events. It is available in sizes six to 16, in both regular and petite lengths to accommodate all heights.
Price and Savings
Usually priced at £229, the dress is currently offered with 15% off, bringing the price down to £194.65. This represents a saving of £35 when using the code KMEXTRA15 at checkout.
How Helen Styled It
Helen accessorised her Mono Geo Silk Cotton Dress with an oversized black fascinator, black heels, and a black quilted Chanel bag. For a different look, you could introduce pops of colour with accessories such as a red clutch or pink shoes.
Alternative Options
If you prefer a subtle pop of colour, the ASOS LUXE Jacquard Midi Dress With Full Skirt In Blue Floral is a great alternative. It is now on sale for £84, down from £120, and features a similar fit-and-flare shape in a white and blue floral print.
For those ready to go all in with colour, Monsoon's Saira Embellished Sleeveless Satin Midi Dress in pink is beautiful for formal occasions. It comes in a deep magenta colour with an embellished beaded neckline, maintaining the fitted bodice and voluminous skirt silhouette. It is now 50% off, reduced from £150 to £75.
