Fat Face’s versatile dress features a classic square neckline, side pockets and elasticated sleeves (Image: Fat Face)It’s summer in the UK, but as usual, sudden showers and high winds often interrupt sunny spells. Navigating this tricky weather requires a wardrobe that is as adaptable as it is stylish — and we’ve found the perfect solution: FatFace’s Adele Shirred Midi Dress, which has had shoppers gushing over its flattering fit. This versatile piece, £69, can be easily paired with sandals and oversized sunglasses for a coastal walk or boots and a leather jacket for when the weather turns. Its long sleeves and mid-length fit will provide coverage if caught short in the rain, while its lightweight viscose fabric will keep you cool when temperatures are high. Not only will this dress see you through the British summer, but its loose, flowy silhouette also makes it an ideal choice for holidays abroad, whether you’re exploring the local sights or lounging on the beach. Plus, it’s a great way to protect your shoulders and legs from the sun — although we always recommend wearing a strong SPF.

It has impressed Fat Face shoppers, too, with a flurry of five-star reviews online. Many have hailed its ‘flattering fit’, with one fan saying ‘(it’s) just so comfy and flattering, it’s perfect for a day out or even a renaissance fair!’. Another praised its stretchy material, saying it ‘will fit bigger sizes too’. A third, who wore the dress to a concert and graduation ceremony, said the piece was ‘so comfortable’ to wear. ‘It was not too heavy that I overheated, and it went with boots, trainers and sandals,’ they said. ‘(It’s a) very versatile dress, the pockets are amazing (and I) have now bought two more in different colours.’ There aren’t many negative reviews, but a few shorter customers have noted that the midi length still feels long. ‘I love fatface, but at 5 foot nothing, I do wish they did proper petite clothes and short dresses,’ one said. ‘I bought the short version of this midi dress, and it was still a maxi on me.’ Still, this is a fabulous pick that should see you through the British summer in style. You can buy FatFace’s Adele Shirred Midi Dress via the website, but be quick if you’re tempted, as we can only imagine it’ll be in stock for a while.
