New Look shoppers are heaping praise on a new dress that they say "fits like a glove." The high street fashion retailer, known for its budget-friendly clothing, shoes, and accessories, often has customers eager to snap up the latest trends.

The item currently making waves is the Brown Twist Shoulder Maxi Dress, retailing at £25.99. Available online in sizes six to 22 and in four colours – brown, black, navy, and burgundy – this dress is turning heads.

Crafted from stretch jersey material, the bodycon maxi dress boasts an asymmetrical neckline, an off-shoulder twist strap, a covered shoulder, and ruched side seams. New Look's product description invites party-goers to add a touch of sophistication with this dress: "It's party season. Looking for a little something extra? This asymmetrical maxi dress has a fallen, twisted shoulder strap for effortless elegance."

The dress has earned a stellar 4.5-star rating online, buoyed by numerous glowing reviews. One customer remarked: "Simple yet stunning. Great dress for evening wear, looks lovely in and much more expensive than the price. A great buy which you can dress up or down to suit any occasion," reports the Mirror.

Another satisfied shopper commented: "Fits like a glove! The dress has a lovely fit and is quite stretchy, therefore very comfortable without being loose. The material is soft and comfortable."

A third review highlighted the versatility of the dress's length: "I am 5'6 and the dress was down to my feet, however you can scrunch it up without it looking weird to make it look shorter. But it's absolutely perfect with some heels on."

A fourth excited shopper exclaimed: "Such a flattering dress perfect for an occasion at this time of year!" Whereas a fifth chimed in, noting: "Simple yet gorgeous. Looked beautiful on and received compliments all night." Another fan added: "LOVE THIS! Love this dress, so comfy but also looks beautiful on."

Nevertheless, not everyone was as taken with the New Look dress, with critiques particularly around the fit. One person pointed out: "Love it and it fits but would have preferred it slightly larger as it is tight around the bust."

Meanwhile, another shared their disappointment: "The dress was trailing on the floor, even with heels (I am 5' 5") so returned. It also looked a bit unflattering on me (I am size 10-12) but would maybe look better with shapewear underneath. Understandable for the great price though!"
