It is priced at just €30 and comes in sizes XS to XL.
The retailer said: “Comfortable yet flattering, this chic midi-length dress features an all-over leopard print.
“It has a shimmering appearance while still maintaining a clean and simple look.
“Featuring a round neckline, long sleeves, and a string belt.
“The underpinning seen on the model is not included.”
And the dress is selling fast with sizes XS, S and XXL already out of stock online.
Meanwhile, a fashion fan has showcased the ultimate autumn look with a new Dunnes Stores buy – and fans were not disappointed.
Evelina, who posts on TikTok under the handle @evelinasilova_makeup, shared the highlights of her latest shopping spree with her fans.
She told her followers: “Dunnes is slaying right now!”
Evelina showed off the Contour Leggings which are now available in Dunnes Stores.
Retailing for just €15, they come in sizes XS to XXL.
Evelina’s video has received over 257,000 views and the popularity is clear as sizes are selling out fast.
Sizes XS, S, and M are sold out online but shoppers can check in store for a wider variety of sizes.
Evelina says: “I got mine in a small, I’m 5’5 and they fit fine, but I’d say there’s a bit of stretch in them length wise.”
One fan commented: “I’m 5’10 and find they fit right at the ankles.”
And another said: “I’m 5’5 too and I actually find them kind of long if I don’t pull half the leg up to my hips. They are very comfy though!”
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.
