We delight to inform you that the Nobody’s Child dress even has pockets

If there’s one wardrobe staple Loose Women’s Linda Robson loves, it’s a midi dress. One of her latest outfits comes from a celeb-loved fashion brand and is perfect for the summer months.

The 66-year-old hit the ITV talk show panel last week on June 13 wearing a Denim Blue Smock Rochelle Midi Dress from Nobody’s Child. It’s the ultimate throw-on-and-go piece that requires minimal effort for maximum impact, and has a ‘big bonus’ according to shoppers.

Priced at £75, the easy-dressing number is cut in a stylish smock shape with a tiered hem that falls to a midi length. With a height of 5’4”, Linda and her stylists are well aware that their calf-length hemlines flatter her petite frame, and this dress is no different.

While Linda’s dark indigo version is selling fast, it’s also available in a ‘sunshine-infused light blue wash’ with mid-length puff sleeves – another of the Loose Women star’s signature silhouettes. The oversized fit is perfect for anyone who is a little self conscious of their tum, disguising the waist without being shapeless. And fashion fans will no doubt be excited that it has pockets.

The dress, which is also sold at John Lewis, has received a number of five star reviews from shoppers, one of which said: “Bought this with a Personal Shopper – she was wearing it and gave me the confidence to try it too. It hangs really well and has generous side pockets (big bonus). Bit long for me (I’m 5’2″) but with a bit of a modification it’s fantastic. Will be wearing it on holiday in a couple months of weeks.”

Another added: “Nice soft fabric in beautiful colour. Perfect for spring/summer season.” While a third penned: “What a lovely feel and fitting dress. Can’t wait to wear it just need some Spring like weather soon.”

However, one person said it was ‘way too long’, commenting: “This dress is gorgeous and great quality- I like the structure and style. However- it was way too long on me- it was maxi length (I’m 5ft7) and would have needed to be altered to take a few inches off – so sadly I sent it back.”

We think this dress is perfect for styling with sandals and a straw bag this summer, but equally, sport some trainers so you can look chic on your errand runs.

Another high street midi dress Linda wore recently is the Black Floral Puff Sleeve Shift Midi Dress, from River Island. The £50 dress boasts a large patterned floral print with on trend puff sleeves, perfect for showing off her tan after coming back from a holiday.

Some of our favourites in recent weeks include this Bella Pink Textured Midi Dress from Phase Eight, and this Cos Oversized Grandad-Collar Shirt Dress. But if you’re heading on holiday or fancy a new outfit for your summer plans, you can buy her £75 Nobody’s Child dress here.
