WITH Christmas party season fast approaching, many of us will be looking for last-minute outfit ideas.
And it seems that Marks & Spencer has the perfect co-ord to see you through the festive season.
The British retailer is selling a festive top that is still ‘elegant and classy’ for Christmas.
The Sparkly Sequin Detail Top has a tailored-look with a sequin band at the bottom to jazz it up.
The stunning top costs £36 and is the perfect balance between classy and festive fun.
It comes in an inclusive size range of going from a 6 to 24 and has already sold out in some sizes, so you’ll have to be quick if you want to secure yours.
M&S bosses say: “With a panel of dazzling sequins, this chic top will bring a shimmering touch to party looks.
“Designed in a regular fit, with a sleeveless cut for easy wear. A keyhole button fastening at the back of the neck adds a neat finishing touch.”
And if you love the design, you’ll be thrilled to know it comes in matching trousers too.
The Sequin Panelled Straight Leg Trousers cost £40 and featured sequin panels at the bottom of the leg.
The pieces can be worn together for the ultimate Christmas party outfit or dressed down and worn separately.
The sparkly top would work perfectly with barrel leg jeans, while the trousers will dazzle with a crisp white shirt.
Customers who already bought the sequin top have raved about it in the reviews saying it’s perfect for Christmas.
One person wrote: “Love, can’t wait to wear it for my Christmas do. It’s just perfect.”
Another commented: “Great for the party season!”
“Lovely top, classy and elegant. Goes lovely with ankle length trousers for Christmas party night,” penned a third.
Is supermarket fashion the new high street?
DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in:
The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family.
Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a ‘strong growth in clothing’ and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street.
Asda’s clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury’s clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year.
So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful?
Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it’s good quality too – with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative.
A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year.
Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Fabulous top. Great quality. Got lots of compliments when I wore it.”
“Elegant sequin party wear top that could also be worn with jeans,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Can be worn as part of the set, or it can be worn with a pair of black jeans for a subtle bit of class. Its a great addition to the holiday season.”
