If you’re searching for a few new hard-working dresses to see you through 2024, look no further than Marks & Spencer, as the high street store has just released its epic 2024 collection.
However, you will need to be quick, as numerous styles are selling out extremely quickly. Which dresses should you not miss? Aside from a new-in denim dress that is quickly rising up the best-seller list this week, the most coveted number for quite some time has been the Printed Button Front Midi Shirt Dress.
Initially released in three different prints, due to demand, the £35 dress now comes in a whopping six different patterns.
Lightweight, colourful and easy to dress up or down, this midi shirt dress from M&S is a flattering piece to pick up on your next shop.
Featuring a flattering shirt-style, we have no doubt that this dress will become one of your easy-to-wear wardrobe staples.
It’s also quickly racking up rave reviews. One shopper said they “felt like a million dollars” wearing it to the office for the first time and got “lots of compliments from work colleagues.”
Why we rate it
We love the timeless design that features a smart shirt style at the top (including buttons, cuffed long sleeves and collar). It also has subtle gathering at the waist, which transitions into a tiered midi-length skirt to create an elegant silhouette.
It even has pockets, which is always a bonus! There’s no denying it’s a versatile piece, appropriate for the office, dinner plans or going to the pub.
It’s available in six eye-catching prints: a blue geo print, blue polka dot, peachy pink, neutral animal print, black and a dark navy mix. The statement design means that you can just chuck on the dress and know that you have a stylish outfit immediately with little effort.
If you’re someone who favours long sleeves all year round, the dress can also easily be styled for all seasons. When it’s cold, pair it with slouchy leather boots and a tailored wool coat or leather jacket, and in the spring, switch things up and style it with white trainers, pumps or even sandals.
Crafted from a viscose fabric, it’s soft, comfortable and keeps it shape. It just needs washing on a 40 degree cycle to keep it in tip top condition.

It has quickly racked up a number of five-star reviews for its versatility, flattering silhouette, eye-catching prints and pockets.
