This River Island dress is race day perfection and it comes in three colours

Heading to the races?

Summer is a busy time, it’s wedding season, racing season, party season and with the weather we’ve been having of late, it’s even more tempting to fill your calendar with fun things to do.

If you are heading racing soon and haven’t yet picked up an outfit, this River Island dress is definitely worth a look.

It’s the Tie Sleeve Bandeau Midi Dress, limited-edition FYI, and it comes in three colours so there’s bound to be one to suit your taste.

Personally, I adore the navy because it’s a little different from standard black and again, it would be a fab choice for a special summer occasion.

There’s also white and a camel colour both of which are equally fab and would also be perfect as wedding guest dresses…although maybe stick to the navy/camel shades in this scenario, no point pissing off the bride tbf.

The dress has just arrived online so it’s available in all sizes right now but as it’s a limited-edition design, we imagine that once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Another River Island dress we are mad about this week is the Black Plisse Leopard Print Midi Dress, an absolute bargain at €40.

Three of the RI stylists have given it their seal of approval and as they know all about the best buys first, I’m on board with this particular fashion pick.
