Cat Deeley turned heads on This Morning last week in a blue floral midi dress from Marks & Spencer, a choice that has since drawn gasps of admiration from fans and positive reviews from shoppers. The Lyocell Rich Floral Midi Dress, priced at £50, was spotted on the TV presenter during a recent episode, and the reaction online has been swift and enthusiastic.
The Dress That Stopped the Show
The dress, made from lightweight lyocell, features an elegant asymmetric shoulder cut and a sheer overlay that adds sophistication. Its periwinkle blue colour and ditsy floral print are understated yet romantic, making it suitable for both formal and casual occasions. The ruched waist detail enhances the figure, while off-the-shoulder neckline and slim spaghetti straps provide support, though Deeley tucked the straps in for a seamless finish. According to Express, the dress is still in stock in a range of sizes on the M&S website.
Fans React to Cat Deeley's Stunning Look
Posting a photograph of herself in the dress on Instagram, Deeley received an outpouring of praise. One fan wrote: "Sensational as always! I audibly gasped when I saw the blue dress the other day - absolutely gorgeous!" Another commented: "Wow @catdeeley, love this and my mum was obsessed wanting it. You honestly are absolutely stunning." A third enthusiast simply gushed: "Blue dress absolutely stunning." The post quickly accumulated likes and comments, with many viewers expressing admiration for her affordable high-street style.
Shopper Reviews Highlight Fit and Quality
The dress has also earned glowing reviews on the M&S website. One five-star rating stated: "Very flattering. Lovely dress - works for formal and casual occasions." Another shopper, who bought the dress after seeing it on Deeley, noted: "I bought this lovely ditsy dress when I saw it on Cat Deeley (on This Morning). It looked ideal for this heat wave we're having." However, this reviewer flagged a sizing issue: "I ordered a size 10 and normally this is perfect for me. Unfortunately, the design came up a little small for my liking, in this hot weather, you don't want clothes to cling to you (you need them a little loose). I ordered the next size up, 12... Haven't worn it yet, but sure it will be ideal. Marks and Spencer is always good quality." This advice may be helpful for prospective buyers.
Alternative Options for Summer Weddings
For those seeking similar styles, alternatives are available. Nobody's Child offers the Blue Floral Chiffon Logan Maxi Dress, reduced from £130 to £52, featuring a frilled neckline and sleeves with a romantic faded floral print. Omnes' Aurelia dress, reduced from £99 to £59.40, is made from recycled polyester satin and comes in powder blue with a curved tie-back and peek-a-boo lace detailing. Both options provide comparable elegance for summer events.
Cat Deeley's choice of accessible fashion continues to resonate with viewers, proving that style need not come with a high price tag. The M&S dress remains a popular item, combining comfort, quality, and a flattering design that has clearly struck a chord with the public.
