The black dress features a beige paisley print, a v-neck and self-tie belt.

Dunnes Stores bosses said the guna is “lightweight and loose-fitting”.

They said: “In a timeless paisley print, this midi dress features a v-shaped neckline with a four-button placket and lace panels on either side.

“Lightweight and loose-fitting, it has a deep frill at the hem, elbow-length sleeves, and a self-tie at the waist to define the silhouette.”

Retailing at €30, the pretty dress ranges in sizes 8 to 22.

The fashion giant styled it with simple black heels.

Add a pair of wedges for a brunch date or sandals for a relaxed look.

Another Paisley Dress has landed in Dunnes Stores.

With blends of pinks, oranges, peaches and a pastel green, the dress will brighten up any summer wardrobe.

Its description reads: “This colourful dress features a timeless paisley pattern in comfortable, lightweight material.

“It has flutter sleeves, two lattice panels, a v-neck with covered buttons, subtle pockets, and a tiered skirt.”

Retailing at €30, the colourful piece is selling out fast.

It ranges in sizes XS to XXL but sizes XL and XXL have sold out online.

Fashion fans have also gone wild for a co-ord that’s landed in Dunnes Stores.

Sara Kavanagh, who posts on TikTok under the handle @sara_kavv has told fans to “run don’t walk to Dunnes”.

The stunning outfit is actually sold separately. However you can bag this entire outfit for just €35.

The Gallery Pointelle Sleeveless Top was the point of contention with Sara as she tried on the matching set.

“I had seen someone else wearing it, but she wore it like this” Sara says as she models the top worn untucked.

“But I feel like it doesn’t suit me like that, maybe because I’m short. I just don’t like the length of it.”

So as a warning for other shorter girls, Sara warned the long top may not be as flattering, although she did offer some styling advice of her own.

The Lace Trim Dress is a steal at €30

THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES

DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 – and it was an instant hit.

Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.

During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.

Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.

The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.

“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.

“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”

The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.

They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.

“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”

Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
