Tesco's F&F drops new 'feminine' polka dot dress for summer that costs £25

Daily Record19-05-2025

Tesco's F&F Instagram page has highlighted a brand new dress that is perfect for summer events.
Tesco's F&F clothing range has always been a huge hit with shoppers. Which is why many were left impressed when it officially debuted online for the first time ever earlier this month.
Ahead of the upcoming summer season, the fashion range has just been upgraded with a whole host of new garments that are perfect for the balmy weather with the new "Style It Out" collection.
As reported by Cambridgeshire Live, the new launch also includes a beautiful maxi dress you can wear throughout the day and into the night for just £25 - the F&F Polka Dot Ruffle Midi Dress in Ivory.
Available in sizes six through to a 22, this "standout" frock is perfect for any fancy occasions that may already be booked in the summer calendar. From weddings to garden parties, it will be the talk of the town anywhere it is worn.
Hailed as a "feminine pick" by the supermarket, the £25 dress has been crafted from a smooth satin material. It boasts a few elegant details such as a side slit, a soft v-neckline, thin straps and a ruffle detail along the neck and front.
Shoppers keen on a similar style from an alternative retailer might be keen on New Look's £47.99 Off White Polka Dot Cowl Neck Chiffon Midi Dress that also looks suitable for many fancier events.
Meanwhile, Boden also has a few styles worth checking out for the summer, with this £98 Nicola Jersey Tea Dress available in a vast selection of bold prints for the warmer season.
As for the F&F polka dot number, it's a versatile design that was paired with chic red heels in Tesco's Instagram advert recently. However, a product description advises that it can also be accompanied with a pair of sandals during the day.
The dress was showcased on the Tesco F&F Instagram page, which currently boasts 843K followers. The post was captioned: "Unwanted shoe accessory? #StyleItOut. Dress, £25."

Devotees of the clothing brand have already begun voicing their thoughts about the chic dress on social media. One commenter exclaimed: "Love this."
Meanwhile, another declared it: "EPIC."
It is worth mentioning that, so far, the Polka Dot Ruffle Midi Dress currently holds no negative reviews on the F&F website or on the Instagram post it was recently showcased in.
Fashion deal of the week
Jetting off on holiday this summer and need some flattering new swimwear?
One that shoppers can't stop gushing over is Next's Plunge Shaping Tummy Control Swimsuit that seems to "firm" wobbly bits around the waistline. Costing just £40, it boasts 10 colours and prints to choose from.
With its elegant deep plunge neckline and trendy high-cut leg design, it's a fashionable one-piece that also is "not too revealing". It comes with a tummy-shaping panel around the middle that works to smooth out any lumps and bumps.
Each design of the one-piece is available in a regular-fit, with sizes ranging from a six through to 26, although some are beginning to sell out incredibly fast.
Those who have bought the £40 Next swimsuit can't stop praising it, as one shopper said: "The thick straps are super supportive and comfortable and the plunge neckline is very flattering while not showing too much cleavage. It's quite a high leg which I like and it feels very comfortable on.
"It pulls the tummy in nicely and is lovely and soft. I can't wait to wear this by the pool on holiday and I will feel comfortable swimming in it too."
A repeat purchaser wrote: "I've got a few different colours in this style of swimsuit now as it's a very flattering fit whilst also being very comfortable and secure."
However, Tesco's F&F clothing line does only hold a 2.8 rating on Trustpilot, with some shoppers criticising the quality of certain items, while others weren't impressed with the service that would only provide a refund if a receipt was provided.
Since the summer season poses the opportunity to refresh our wardrobe, then it's good news that Tesco's latest "Style It Out" collection has a whole host of new season must-haves worth popping into a holiday suitcase.
This includes everything from stylish swimwear and floaty lace materials to midi dresses and wide-leg trousers that will allow shoppers to keep up with the latest on-trend styles.

Former Love Island winner Jess Harding hits out at 'b**chy' 2025 contestant

Jess Harding, who won ITV's Love Island back in 2023, has shared her thoughts on current contestant Antonia 'Toni' Laites - who has been causing drama in the villa Former Love Island winner Jess Harding has lashed out at one of the current contestants in a scathing social media post. The 2025 season of ITV's long-running reality dating show began earlier this month and 16 contestants are currently housed in the villa. But tensions have been bubbling between some of the contestants and 24-year-olds Antonia 'Toni' Laites and Emily Moran have clashed while taking part in the show. Viewers were startled to see Toni accuse Emily of sticking her nose in her business during a fiery exchange that aired on Friday night. ‌ Jess, 24 - who won Love Island in 2023 alongside then-boyfriend Sammy Root, 24 - was among those watching at home to take to social media to dissect the unsettling scenes. The reality star shared her shock at Toni's outburst against Emily. ‌ Siding with the British star, Jess accused American bombshell Toni of being "b**chy". In a message shared via Instagram stories, the star wrote: "Ok what the hell, just because someone isn't your cup of tea doesn't mean you can cause a big drama over it?!" Jess continued: "Toni girl I loved you but I don't like b****y behaviour & pulling crying behaviour." And she added: "Why can't the girls be 1 big group cos these men be acting CRAZY." On Friday night, fans saw tension escalate between Toni and Emily as the 2025 season endured one of its most dramatic arguments so far. Friction came to a head after the two ladies took a near instant dislike to each other after Emily entered the villa as a bombshell on day five. Toni's feather's were ruffled when she overheard a conversation between Emily and Irish contestant Conor Phillips, 25. The American bombshell then found a confidant in Shakira Khan, 22, who she shared her frustrations with. But Emily later accused Toni of talking behind her back, while fellow Islander Megan 'Meg' Moore, 25, warned Emily that Toni had branded her "nosey" and "Little Miss Sunshine." ‌ An almighty row erupted, with Emily despairing that Toni was "just trying to cause a problem," and "she's f****g nuts." All the drama could be helping generate interest in the long-running show, however. While the 2025 season got off to a low viewership start when it launched on 9 June, the audience then reportedly grew by 1.7 million streams on ITVX after the first episode aired. ‌ Some past contestants have started campaigning for the series to be axed, however, and the show has a long history of being tied to the tragic mental health declines of past contestants. This weekend, Malin Andersson, who starred on the show in 2016, voiced her concerns about the way the series is made. She told The Mirror: "It should be axed. When I was on it, we were naive, it felt more organic – still scripted but more authentic. Even then, it wasn't pure, it was full of toxicity. Now millions watch it, especially young people, and their idea of love gets completely skewed." She added: "I felt disposable, like a piece of rubbish tossed aside. In there, you're fighting to be seen, to be a main character, seeking validation. It's not healthy – it creates unrealistic drama and messes up how viewers see love." Love Island has come under fire in the past for failing to support contestant that take part in the series - however, strict after care rules were introduced in 2019 after the deaths of former contestants Sophie Gradon and Mike Thalassitis.

Loose Women star expecting third grandchild as daughter announces pregnancy

Coleen Nolan's daughter, Ciara Fensome, is expecting her first child. The first time mum-to-be took to Instagram on Saturday (June 21) to share a stunning photo of herself cradling her growing bump. She also posted a picture of herself and fiancé Maxx Innes proudly displaying their baby scan in a photo booth. Ciara, 24, captioned her post: "One of me is cute but two tho? Baby Innes pending.." Coleen Nolan's Loose Women co-star Ruth Langsford was quick to leave a congratulatory message, writing: "WONDERFUL! Congratulations!" Former panelist Saira Khan chimed in with: "Wow! ! Congratulations" alongside a red heart emoji. Another comment read: "Omg massive congrats to you both! ! You two are gonna be the best parents, while another well-wisher added: "OMG, massive congratulations to you both! !". Later, Ciara updated her Instagram Story to tell her 17,300 followers that she can "finally" start posting her holiday photos following her announcement. She's currently on holiday in Faliraki with her mum, who has been sharing updates from their trip on social media. This joyous news comes just over a year after Ciara got engaged to Maxx. In April 2025, a thrilled Coleen shared a photo of Ciara and her fiancé in a romantic pose, confirming her daughter was officially off the market. "Well, what can I say....I'm so so delighted that @maxxinnes has asked my beautiful daughter @ciarafensome to marry him," Coleen wrote at the time. "I love them both soooo much. Miss them even more! Can't wait to see them. Off to buy a hat x," she wrote, ending her post with a crying laughing emoji. Coleen's post was met with a flurry of congratulations from her celebrity friends. "Congratulations @ciarafensome," Loose Women co-star Denise Welch penned. Charlene White quickly chimed in with "congrats! ! !" and Kelle Bryan added, "Such lovely news." Despite divorcing Ciara's father Ray in 2018, Coleen, who also shares two sons with ex Shane Richie, has maintained a close friendship with him. The ITV star, who has yet to comment on the baby news, is already a grandmother to two children. In 2016, her eldest son Shane Jr welcomed a daughter named Amelia. Then, in November 2024, her son Jake became a father to a little boy.
