M&S shoppers rush to buy £45 sequin Christmas dress

Marks & Spencer released its Christmas advert on November 6, and shoppers are already flocking to the website to buy the featured items, including the Sequin Mini Bodycon Dress worn by Katherine Jenkins.

The dress is priced at £45 and is fully stocked in sizes 6 to 24, with petite, regular, and tall options. The fitted black bodycon is completely covered in sparkling silver sequins and buttons up at the back.

Styling and Availability

M&S stylists recommend pairing the dress with the Polka Dot Mesh Stiletto Slingback Shoes, also priced at £45. The black slingbacks feature polka dot mesh fabric, pointed toes, and a 3D decorative bow.

Despite being fully stocked at the time of writing, the dress is flagged as 'selling fast', so interested shoppers may want to move quickly. The sequin dress is described as suitable for a Christmas party or New Year's Eve look.

Alternative Options and Other Advert Pieces

For those shopping around, New Look offers the Black Sequin Embellished Shift Mini Dress for £49.99, while Dorothy Perkins has reduced its Velvet Sequin Mini Dress from £45 to £40.50 in the sale.

Another featured item is the Animal Print Belted Collared Longline Wrap Coat, priced at £90 and flagged as a 'popular' choice. The longline belted trench, worn by Mrs Claus in the advert, is available in sizes 6 to 24, with shoppers advised to size up to fit jumpers underneath.

Festive Tops for Christmas Parties

Shoppers have also been eyeing the Velvet V Neck Lace Insert Cami Top, priced at £24. The sleeveless top features a v neck with lace details, a velvet finish, and ties at the back to cinch the waist. Sizes range from 6 to 20, with 22 and 24 sold out at the time of writing, and shoppers generally agree the top fits a little big.

Alternatives include Boden's Lace Trim V-Neck Velvet Top, reduced from £59 to £44.25 with code DUKWD, and the Phase Eight Cindy Velvet and Mesh V-Neck Top, new in for the season at £69 with a velvet body and sheer blouson sleeves.
