This £35 M&S Dress Looks Just Like The Sold-Out Designer Style I’ve Wanted For Years

The sell-out dress is reminiscent of Relisation Par's Gia style - but £200 cheaper.

We can all agree that leopard print is now a permanent fixture in our wardrobes, cow print is making a return and now, zebra print is rearing its head in envy. Rat & Boa, Réalisation Par and Zara are known for adorning the statement print on their viral dresses (the Réalisation Par Gia dress has over 440m views on TikTok) but as of late, the fashion pack has flocked to a significantly more affordable option from M&S — and it's the perfect year round midaxi dress.

M&S' Jersey Animal Print Dress is a trendy pick featuring a bold zebra print pattern from head to toe. Unlike most zebra print staples which feature black and white stripes, M&S' dress comes in a brown and cream colour way, offering a softer - less dizzying - take on the classic zebra pattern. Designed in a regular fit with a long, body-con silhouette, M&S' dress transforms zebra print beyond its typically bold 80s party-girl aesthetic, offering a more elegant take on the trend. And, if you're a fan of the Realisation Par dress, but can't justify spending £275, Marks & Spencer's dress is the perfect alternative.

Shop: M&S' Viral Zebra Dress

Coming in at under £40, this animal print number from M&S is a super flattering and bold addition to any wardrobe.

While we continue to fight plummeting temperatures, pair the M&S dress with thick brown or black tights, layer up with neutral knitted staples such as knitted cardigans, and finish off the look with a long, cosy coat. Once spring finally arrives (though it still seems just out of reach), consider teaming the M&S dress with long line trench coats, as well as classic black ballet flats or leather boots.
