I went to Primark and found the perfect £16 summer dress. The dress is 100% cotton and has a flowing skirt. I found the dress inside Primark on Church Street, Liverpool.
A Standout Summer Piece
The beauty of summer dressing can be found in its simplicity, and I love how easy it is to throw on a dress and go when the weather is warm. Finding pieces that are both bold and interesting, yet easy to style for everyday, can make summer style a breeze. I found one option in Primark that ticks both of these boxes.
While recently browsing in the company's Church Street branch in Liverpool, a dress immediately caught my eye for its stunning shade of blue. I was even more impressed when I looked closer.
Details of the Dress
The dress in question is Primark's Cotton Strappy Corset Midi Dress, which is £16. It could be seen in store in a shade somewhere between azure and cornflower blue. The shade is as equally vibrant as it is delicate, and it would make a standout look for the summer.
On closer inspection, I noticed it has a lovely shape too, with a gathered detail at the hips giving the skirt a voluminous look. It also has a V-neck and spaghetti straps. It looks like it would be a great lightweight dress for summer while still having a long skirt. It is 100% cotton too.
Styling Options
It could be layered with a t-shirt for an office look, worn with heeled sandals for something more dressed-up, or just thrown on for an effortlessly elegant daytime outfit.
While I only spotted the dress in blue, the Primark website sees it listed in green and white or navy and white stripes too. Primark describes it online as a "cotton midi dress, with a V-neckline, adjustable spaghetti straps, a corset-inspired bodice and a flowing skirt".
Additional Options
For a shorter option, I also spotted the Cotton Cornelli Mini Dress in a very similar colour for £18. The mini dress features wide straps, a straight neckline and a flowing skirt, finished with Cornelli embroidery over the bust. Both dresses are listed online in sizes six to 20.
