I'm Calling It: This Elegant, Under-£50 M&S Dress Is the Cult Buy of the Summer
With its chic square neckline, delicate pin-tuck detailing and glossy satin finish, the M&S satin skater dress is going viral.
As soon as June rolls around, every year—like clockwork—I find myself making a beeline for M&S’s dress section. The retailer has become the destination for elegant, expensive-looking summer dresses, and every year there’s one style that rises above the rest. This season, the Satin Skater Dress has taken the crown.
With its chic square neckline, delicate pin-tuck detailing and glossy satin finish, it feels remarkably elevated. Available in chic white, blush pink and classic black, it’s exactly the sort of dress that looks just as good with simple sandals on holiday as it does dressed up for summer events.
