Fat Face shoppers 'lucky' to get 'lovely' £85 summer work dress in sale for £38
Shoppers are prepping their work wardrobes for summer at a steal by saving £47 off this Fat Face 100% cotton Brody Detail Dress
Dressing for work can be tricky during the summer, having to navigate staying cool and comfortable, looking stylish and adhering to a workplace dress code. A cotton dress is a smart option as the fabric is known for being breathable, and Fat Face have just reduced a piece that balances fashion and functionality.
The Fat Face 100% Cotton Brody Detail Dress would usually cost £85, but in deal that can be found on the Fat Face website or at Next, it has been reduced to £38. This offer saves shoppers an impressive £47, meaning a good quality work wardrobe can be stocked up for less.
Made from 100% cotton and featuring beautiful broderie detailing with balloon sleeves, it's a little bit different than just a plain black dress, however, it is still appropriate for most work environments. Adding to its versatility, it could also be dressed down on days off with trainers and a casual jacket, or dressed up further with heels and a blazer.

It falls to a length just above the knee and comes in sizes 6 to 20. However, there are no petite options, which may cause issues for those with shorter frames. Debenhams has reduced this Oasis Broderie Frill Detail Button Down Mini Dress to £44.10 for those looking for a petite alternative with a similar style.
One shopper was delighted that they picked up the Fat Face dress in their size at such a steal. They wrote: "Lovely cute dress, very versatile and can be matched with boots or trainers. Bought for work / casual wear, and it meets that requirement very well.
Shoppers can save £47 off this summer dress.
"Nice quality material and fits nicely. I’d had my eye on it for sometime and was lucky to get it in the sales, which was great. Very happy with this item."
Another person recommended the style for new mothers, writing: "Dress is lovely on and fits nicely. Real buttons at top making it breastfeeding friendly." However, someone else deducted two stars from their review as they were disappointed the dress didn't come lined, as advertised.
Their mixed review reads: "It’s a lovely dress. It’s a good length on my 5’4 frame and very pretty. Unfortunately, it is not fully lined as advertised. It comes with a slip underneath.
"As I was wearing tights the slip worked its way up so it was round my middle after 10 minutes of wear allowing people to see through the holes in the dress. I was able to get a perfect sleeveless t shirt dress to wear underneath instead of the slip for £10 in Asda, but this made my dress much less of a sale bargain. I still really like it though."
Alternatively, New Look has another option for fashion fans to peruse. The Black Broderie Anglaise Mini Dress is £35.99, and it also comes in four other colours, including white, pink, khaki, and blue. But those with their sights set on the Fat Face dress can pick it up for £38, down from £85 here.
