Marks and Spencer has updated its winter capsule clothing edit with a new dress that already has shoppers clamouring to get their hands on it.
As temperatures plummet this week, a hardworking staple in your wardrobe could be a jumper-style dress. Which is exactly why the retailer’s Jersey Round Neck Midi Column Dress is a hit with fashion fans.
This “flattering” frock costs an affordable £39.50 and, despite being a new addition to the M&S website, it is already a “number two bestseller” and is beginning to be snapped up rather quickly by enthusiastic shoppers.

Described as “understated yet chic”, this midi-length dress boasts a relaxed fit and an elegant column-style silhouette that will streamline your figure. It’s complete with a classy crew neckline, while the long sleeves and jersey material will keep you warm in the colder weather.
Adding to its stylish design, the hemline and sleeves feature a classy black ribbed trim. With praise for its versatility, you can wear the £39.50 dress casually with a pair of tights, chunky boots and your favourite coat, or even for a fancier evening event with heels and a chic clutch bag.
Owing to its popularity, it has already nearly sold out in the midnight navy colourway. However, as of writing, a trendy grey marl colour is still available in a range of sizes from a UK six through to 24, although we’d advise acting fast.
Although the Jersey Round Neck Midi Column Dress is new to M&S, shoppers who have managed to get their hands on it have gushed over it as a “stylish” wardrobe item they can wear to “any occasion.”
One five-star review read: “Great cut, stylish and warm and comfortable. Good for all occasions.”
Someone else who bought the frock wrote: “Lovely dress. Very soft material and flattering. I am quite short so the long style makes me look taller. Will be wearing New Years Eve!”
Another positive review read: “Good plain warm dress for any occasion. Good with boots. Navy with the piping is nice.”
While there were no negative reviews, as one shopper did advise that they sized up to avoid the style feeling “constrictive”, which might be something to consider when buying one for yourself.
The four star review read: “Lovely dress, comfortable and looks great. I bought in the navy and grey. I sized up, I am usually a 10 but went for the 12 in both as I found that they looked better on me and felt less constrictive.”
