Shoppers rush to buy ‘flattering’ Marks & Spencer summer dress reduced to £12 down from £19.50 in summer sale
MARKS & SPENCER has launched an unmissable summer sale, which sees everything from dresses to tops, trousers, footwear and accessories reduced.
But one item that has caught our attention in the sale is the Printed Square Neck Midi Slip Dress, which many shoppers have hailed as the perfect summer dress because it is so “flattering”.

The Printed Square Neck Midi Slip Dress is one of many items reduced in M&S’ summer sale.
This simple, yet versatile dress, has been slashed from £19.50 to £12, saving you £7.50.
This Slip Dress is perfect for the warmer weather as it is lightweight, and loose fitting so does not cling to your body, which can sometimes leave you feeling hot and uncomfortable.
It features a square neckline, subtle gathered detail around the neck for a more feminine fit, as well as adjustable straps for optimum comfort.
It comes in five colourways and prints, including blue, as well as black mix (both of which are polka dot designs), plus it is available to shop in a variety of tiger print-esque designs, and a vibrant pink pattern.
Each dress comes in UK dress sizes 6 to 24, and while some are available in regular sizes, others also come in petite and tall.
It is also important to note that while this dress is on sale, the price varies depending on the colour you choose – that’s if it hasn’t sold out just yet because some styles are flying off the shelves.
This dress is a go-to for pottering around the house or garden, running errands, or on holiday, and we predict shoppers will get their fair share of wear out of this dress for many seasons to come.
But don’t just listen to us, take note of M&S shoppers’ reviews.
One happy customer’s review read: “Beautiful lightweight, free-flowing dress with lovely square neckline.”
While another gushed: “Very comfortable and good value for money. I will get lots of wear from this.”
A third added: “Perfect dress for hot days. I wore this in Croatia recently – it was a go-to favourite for the current conditions there – so light and airy. The viscose is breathable, unlike some. I bought this in the blue/aqua colour, which is an eye-catching bright print.”
As we previously mentioned there are plenty of other items to shop in the M&S sale.
In the women’s sale, you can shop specific brands, such as Jaeger, at a reduced price.
Plus, there is a sale on kidswear, men’s, as well as beauty, with up to 50% off.
Here’s what else we’ve got our eye on.

1. Satin Round Neck Midi Tea Dress
We have had our eyes on this Satin Round Neck Midi Tea Dress for months, and now it is finally in the sale.
It is a super chic design, which we think is perfect for any upcoming weddings you are attending, christenings, or other formal occasions, though it also works appropriately too.
The bubblegum pink is super chic and bang on trend currently, while the cut-out back detail with tie fastening adds a little bit of fun.

2. Embroidered Belted Midi Waisted Dress
When it comes to summer dressing we live for a white dress, and an embroidered texture, which this design has nailed.
From the round neck to the blouson sleeves, subtle sheer detail in the lower part of the skirt, and a waist tie belt, all combined with the embroidered fabric, elevates this dress to more than just another white summer dress.
You can dress up or down, wear it day or night, but one thing is certain, you will live in this breezy number all season.

3. Satin Midaxi Slip Skirt
No wardrobe is complete without a maxi slip skirt.
This style of skirt was hugely popular circa 2018 but fell off the radar, and now it is back and we couldn’t be happier.
The satin texture makes this super flattering and feminine, perfect for day and night dressing, while the maxi length makes this uber feminine providing enough coverage yet still super flattering for the wearer.
You can pair the versatile skirt with a vest, t-shirt, layered under a linen shirt, or a more jazzy top, plus you can style it with a thick knit jumper in the winter.

4. Satin Polka Dot Tie Midaxi Column Dress
This design screams wedding guest dress attire, and we are surprised it’s on sale to be totally honest because it looks so luxe.
From the round neck to the midi length, stunning polka dot print to the waist tie detail to cinch in your waist for a more flattering silhouette, this design is everything.
Style with cream accessories, a rattan bag and heels, or bring out the pop of colour with green shoes and a bag to match.
- Satin Polka Dot Tie Midaxi Column Dress, £25 (Was £49.50) – buy here
5. Floral V-Neck Midaxi Tiered Dress
For those who are looking for a summery dress to wear day and night, see them through every occasion this summer, including weddings, christenings, summer parties and work, this is the answer.
What we love about this number is it is super flattering for all body shapes and sizes.
The v-neck ruffle detail is super feminine and perfect for those who want a fun and playful summer dress, while the lower half flows out into an A-line shape with drop hem detail, which is perfect for those who may be body conscious and want to conceal their stomach or legs.
The bold floral print in the orange, pink and red hues, is super flattering, bold, yet not too overbearing, just the happy medium.

6. Linen Blend Wide Leg Trousers
Summer dressing is all about linen, which is why these are a must-buy in M&S’ summer sale.
The linen blend is super soft on the skin, lightweight and breathable.
The high-waisted design can cinch you in, elongate your legs, and make these look super luxe.
You can dress up or down, and we think you will get plenty of wear out of these trousers.

7. Linen Blend Tailored Single Breasted Blazer
You can never have too many blazers in our opinion, and a white variation in a lightweight linen fabric is a must.
This layering item is perfect for those days you need a little extra coverage and warmth but do not want to wear a heavy leather jacket, and still want to look smart.
You can pair with matching linen shorts or trousers, or loosely drape over your shoulders when wearing a dress for a wedding or race day.
- Linen Blend Tailored Single Breasted Blazer, £39 (Was £59) – buy here
8. Leather Strappy Statement Sandals
Summer dressing is about being bold, and if you don’t want to go to OTT with your outfit, you can do so with small details, such as a pair of shoes.
The leather sandals are giving us major Bottega Veneta vibes – albeit with a much smaller price tag.
We love the chunky block heel, and cushioned sole for extra comfort when we are on our feet for hours on end, while the twist strap detail and ankle fastening ensure these will not be slipping off your feet.
