December is usually the month where you’ll attend most parties, which means purchasing a new frock for every occasion.
Whether you are going out with friends or on a works night out, you’ll want to dress to impress. One particular number that is getting rave reviews from shoppers for its “very flattering” design right now is M&S’ One Shoulder Midi Bodycon Dress.
The high street retailer’s partywear collection is packed with show-stopping outfit ideas for the festive season, and this £29.50 frock is no different. You can choose from two classic colours – a chic black or an elegant red orchid.

As of writing, the party dress has been described as “popular” with shoppers on the M&S website. Designed in petite, regular and long lengthways, the sought-after number is available in sizes six to 24, although some are starting to sell fast.
Cut in a timeless regular-fit, it boasts a striking one-shoulder design that will provide the wow factor this Christmas. Falling to a trendy midi-length, it featured a ruched, body-con design that shoppers say is “not clingy” and provides the “perfect fit”.
If you need some accessories to pair with the £29.50 dress, then the model on the website also wears the £25 Sequin Top Handle Grab Bag that is ideal for adding a touch of festive glitz to the outfit without being too much.
Since the One Shoulder Midi Bodycon Dress boasts an almost perfect five star rating, it’s easy to see why it is proven a hit with fashion fans who say that it is “great at Christmas parties” and that it “helps hide lumps and bumps”.
One five-star review read: “One shoulder dress great at Christmas parties. Lovely dress very flattering nice fabric ordered long length very flattering.”
A second positive review read: “I bought this dress in black in petite. It comes to just above my ankles so will look great with shoe boots. The rushed effect on the side helps hide bumps and lumps. I am planning to wear it when on holiday in Lisbon at the end of next month.”
Someone else remarked: “It’s clingy in all the right places and I like the off shoulder aspect. Nice length. Overall a great buy. Just a pity the smaller sizes sell out so fast, I’ve practically had to check the site every day for about six weeks to get a size 6 but delighted that I’ve managed it!”

Not everyone found the fit flattering, as one four-star review read: “Was a bit clingy for my lumps & bumps but got snatched up by my teenage daughter, setting it aside for Christmas parties.”
