A comfortable yet flattering dress is a summer wardrobe staple for many, but finding a frock that's both budget-friendly and easy to wear can sometimes prove tricky. Now, we've spotted a double discount deal on a popular Regatta dress that shoppers say is 'easy to throw on' and 'far more flattering and comfortable than shorts.'
The dress in question is the retailer's Women's Amorie Dress which comes in a variety of colours ranging from brightly coloured designs such as extreme pink, sonic blue and tangerine through to more muted hues such as the Navy stripe and Skyway White. The dresses have already been cut in price by 40%, reduced from £30 to a mere £18 - but there is a way for savvy fashion fans to save even more.
Using the code HOL15 gets shoppers an additional 15% off, taking the sale price to just £15.30. Perfect for holidays, the handy adjustable waist creates a slimming hourglass silhouette that's both comfortable and flattering.
Why Shoppers Love It
Owing to its classic design, the casual dress works well for everyday wear during the warmer months, whether shopping, hitting the beach or running daily errands. Available in UK sizes 8-20, the breathable material contains 60% cotton.
Regatta reviewers are impressed with the dress, having awarded it a perfect five star review score. One said: 'Cool dress. Cotton casual dress for warm days - easy to throw on and lovely colour. Ideal for holidays.'
Meanwhile another said they liked the design so much they had multiple, writing: 'I have several of these cotton summer dresses that are so useful and ideal for wearing over swimwear on holiday. They wash well and are easy to iron.'
A third reviewer commented: 'Nice material and a good length - not too short. The waist adjusts and they're far more flattering and comfortable than shorts.'
Practical Features
Back to Regatta's Women's Amorie Dress and its two lower pockets also make the item a practical choice for those with busy lifestyles or who spend a lot of time running around after kids. Falling just above the knee on the website model, it is worth more petite or taller shoppers noting that this frock is only available in one length so it may be trickier to find their ideal fit.
Other Summer Deals at Regatta
The Amorie dress isn't the only item currently on sale at Regatta either, as the retailer also has a host of discounts live across its specially curated Summer Shop which includes clothing, footwear and accessories designed for everything from beach days and family adventures to staycations and weekends away.
Another standout item is the Women's Lady Vendeavour Sandal in the Black White Zebra print. Normally £35, they've been slashed to just £17.50 making them half price, but the code brings the shoes down once more to just £14.88. Other colours are also available in the design.
One shopper praised the shoes for their comfort, writing: 'Bargain - so worth it! I bought these for my 3 week trip to Thailand, and let me tell you...they were absolute troopers! I was doubtful that they'd last since they were only cheap, but I ended up wearing them pretty much every day. I got heat blisters in the middle of my foot (not from the sandals) so these were the only thing I could wear. I wore them in the sea to protect my feet and they dry out instantly. Highly recommend for a hot/travel adventure!'
Someone else raved: 'Fab shoes - I've bought three colours. Really comfortable and practical, I highly recommend these Regatta sandals. I have worn them all summer - no metal so go through security at the airport, good for walking, practical for the beach and look good! Unfortunately I recently fell down a step and rolled my ankle so these shoes have been a godsend as I can adjust the straps accommodate the swelling! Thoroughly recommend.'
Regatta shoppers have also praised the half price Women's Nofino Shirt in Abstract Floral Broderie which was originally £60 - then reduced to £30 - and now £25.50 with the code. One fan said: 'Broderie anglaise is always lovely for summer. This is a good option with jeans.' Meanwhile someone else wrote: 'Perfect top for me and quite flattering. Lovely top, good fit and very pleased to have found one with 3/4 sleeves.'
Alternative Summer Dresses
Elsewhere on the high street, Roman is offering its T-Shirt Pocket Detail Midi Dress in summer-ready pink or blue shades for £38 each. An exclusive discount code AFRPLC25Q226 can be used by shoppers who are new to the retailer on full priced items, bringing the frock down to £28.50. At the time of writing, existing Roman customers can use the code FAB to get 10% off.
