Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget
By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor
AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too.
For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect.
And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time.
But no matter what, Primark always delivers.
Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores.
While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less.
Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards.
With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
The dress comes in sizes 6 to 14, however it's proven to be so popular, that it's already sold out in some sizes.
You can find the frock in store and online, but you'll have to be quick to avoid missing out.
Reviewing the dress, one fashion fan said: "Love this dress, going to be able to wear it anywhere."
Another dress that has caught the eye of shoppers is the Tesco
.
The stylish frock comes in a loose-fitting design, which will help to keep you cool, and is cut to a flattering mini length.
It also covers your upper arms, to protect from sunburn and maximise comfort and would look perfect dress down with sandals for beach days or dressed up with wedges for garden parties or summer events.
The budget gown has been slashed from £25 to just £13, a saving of almost 50%.

While many of these alternatives have been filled with obscure content, more big names like Sky have got on board in recent years offering some quality stuff, which is largely archive but still entertaining. As well as UKTV, Sony and 5 are among the other players getting involved. If you haven't already, give Pluto TV a go, it's available on pretty much all devices including Fire TV Sticks. On there you'll find channels from MTV, with Catfish and Geordie Shore.
