Wimbledon is back, and defending men's champion Jannik Sinner leads the favourites, while Aryna Sabalenka tops the women's draw. Serena Williams, 44, has made a highly-anticipated return. Off the court, celebrity attendees are already serving statement looks: Maura Higgins wore head-to-toe Chanel on day one, and Mary Berry, 91, wowed in a £299 pink midi dress from Holland Cooper.
Lorraine Kelly's High-Street Wimbledon Look
Lorraine Kelly, however, proves the high-street still reigns supreme. The breakfast host wore a Karen Millen dress that looks far more expensive than its price tag, showing you can look like a baller while remaining on a budget. She sported the Rose Print Cotton Sateen Floral Woven Belted Maxi Shirt Dress, typically £189 but now reduced by 40% to £113.40.
Shoppers can apply the discount code 'KMEXTRA10' for an additional 10% off the sale price, bringing the dress to £107.36 — over £81 off the full retail price. The dress embodies refined femininity with its sophisticated maxi length and crisp collar. The cotton sateen fabric provides subtle sheen while maintaining breathability, ideal for warm-weather events.
Styling and Versatility
The belted waist creates a defined silhouette adjustable to preference, while the button-through design offers styling versatility. Available in sizes 6 to 16 in petite and regular lengths, sizes are selling out quickly. Lorraine styled her look with metallic gold raffia wedges for all-day comfort, paired with a tan raffia crossbody bag — perfectly fitting the unofficial dress code. The dress can be dressed up or down for weddings and graduation ceremonies. Lorraine wore it just days ago to promote her new book in St. Andrews, Scotland, pairing it with gold sandals similar to River Island's Gold Cross Strap Shell Detail Wedge Sandals at £54.
Other Affordable Wimbledon Options
Elsewhere, Nobody's Child has knocked almost 30% off its Green Satin Puff Sleeve Quinn Midi Dress, reduced to £53 from £75. The silky emerald green midi dress features a round neckline and short puff sleeves, with an empire waist that defines and softly gathers the bodice. The hemline falls to a flattering midi length, creating an elongating effect.
Alternatively, Marks and Spencer's Jersey Tie Waist Midi Waisted Dress costs £45. This sleeveless midi dress is cut from lightweight jersey for an elegant, drapey look, featuring a stylish slash neckline and pintuck detailing on the shoulder. The waist is cinched with a self-tie fastening for a flattering shape, and added stretch ensures comfortable wear.
Considerations
The Karen Millen website does not allow customer reviews on this dress, but if it's good enough for Lorraine Kelly, it's good enough for us. However, the dress only comes in selected sizes and lengths, which could be an issue. It is also made from heavy cotton, so those preferring lighter fabric may want to consider alternatives.
