Weird Fish shoppers 'feel amazing' in 'great price' dress that 'looks so expensive' Weird Fish have reduced the Arles Embroidered Cotton Dress by £14 and shoppers are snapping it up to wear this summer The Arles dress is a beautiful option in blue for summer (Image: Weird Fish ) Dressing for the warm weather is all about finding outfits that keep the wearer cool and comfortable, without looking frumpy. Sometimes an easy-throw-on-and-go dress is the best option and fashion retailer Weird Fish have just the ticket in a gorgeous shade of cobalt blue. Reminiscent of sparkling oceans and balmy Greek holidays, the Arles Organic Cotton Embroidered Double Cloth Dress is as summery as they come, featuring a swishy full skirt, tassels and gentle pleating. Stocked in sizes 8 to 22, the dress would typically set shoppers back £70, but a limited time sale brings the price down to £56. The statement dress could easily be worn as a wedding guest dress, paired with metallic accessories and jewellery, or popped on over the top of swimwear at the beach or pool on holiday. Made with organic cotton, the dress was inspired by Greece and Morocco, using a breathable fabric.

White embroidery around the neckline and down the three quarter length sleeves add a touch of elegance and really elevate the outfit to stylish heights. One shopper took to the reviews section of the Weird Fish website to say: "Perfect for holiday. Fit is gorgeous, I feel amazing in it and such a good price for something that looks so expensive." And now reduced to £56, it's even better value for money. Arles Organic Cotton Embroidered Double Cloth Dress £70 £56 Weird Fish Shop Deal Product Description Shoppers are getting prepped for the warm weather in the Weird Fish sale. Boden have also got a number of beautiful blue summer dresses on their website, including the Isabel Broderie Mix Maxi Dress. It's £130, but shoppers can shave 15% off the price tag bringing it down to £110.50 with the code JM7D. Shoppers are calling the dress a 'win win' as it is 'very comfortable and breezy', however, someone did find the colour to be a little too 'intense' for their liking. Opting for a summer dress with a pattern helps to break the colour up and make it a less of a statement. This Light Blue Tile Print Shirred Waist Maxi Dress for £48 at Roman does exactly this. It would look lovely with wedges and shoppers say they have 'had lots of compliments' since wearing it. The floaty tiered skirt is a flattering feature (Image: Weird Fish ) Fashion fans also say that the Weird Fish maxi dress has lots going for it, with one person writing: "Lovely fabric, colour, embroidery, sleeves. Like it." Those that have a shorter frame may wish to know that some customers found the design a little too long. Article continues below A four star review reads: "A nice quality garment. The embroidery is lovely but the dress drowned me I need to be taller. Having bought online I returned it in store very easily. There were some nice items in there and I will shop there in future." But, shoppers with their eye on the Arles Organic Cotton Embroidered Double Cloth Dress can pick it up for £56 on the Weird Fish website.
