Lorraine Kelly’s ‘flattering’ wrap dress from Phase Eight is a ‘summer staple’

Lorraine Kelly never fails to impress us with her impeccable style, and her recent Italian inspired dress is giving us major summer vibes – even if the weather isn’t.

With over 500,000 followers on Instagram, the 64-year-old presenter often shares her on-screen looks with her fans, but one dress in particular caught our eye and it’s still in stock in all sizes.

Now, it is an investment piece as it’s priced at £139, but the Nelly Linen Wrap Midi Dress from Phase Eight is perfect for your next trip abroad, summer wedding, or picnic in the park when the temperature eventually picks up.

The timeless midi dress is inspired by the landscapes of Tuscany featuring a sweet hand-painted print, and made from a linen-rich blend that’s both comfortable and airy – great for keeping you cool during those hot summer months. 

It’s available in sizes six to 18, and boasts a flattering wrap design with a matching belt which ties at the waist for a flattering finish. Lorraine kept the styling simple with a pair of open-toe nude heels, however Phase Eight shows just how versatile the dress is by pairing it with some nude knee high boots, and a cropped trench jacket for cooler days.

Lorraine’s post was captioned: ‘Todays look – @phaseeight and sandals @danielfootwear #summer#summervibes#fashion#summerdress#sandals,’ and it has received over 3,000 likes and plenty of comments from fans loving her look.

One follower said: “You look wonderful Lorraine,and such a pretty dress too.” A second added: “Love this dress, need it in my summer wardrobe.”

“Another gorgeous dress Lorraine, very flattering and elegant and your hair and makeup looks lovely,” said a third.

The stunning dress also features quarter length balloon sleeves which are elasticated for extra stretch and comfort.

A similar linen piece we’re loving for summer is this Linen Wrap Midi Dress from & Other Stories, but sold on H&M. Priced at £125, it’s available in all sizes from a UK 4 to 16, and comes in a sweet yellow and pink floral pattern. 

If you’re after a floaty number that’s easy for popping on over your bikini, this £45 Linen Rich Cami Midi Dress is the ultimate summer staple. 

The breezy cami shift dress is an effortless choice for warmer days. It’s cut in a comfy regular fit with a flattering square neckline and a modest mid-length that offers lots of coverage.
