Last season was all about the green polka dot dress. First, Holly Willoughby wore that & Other Stories number on This Morning and then Whistles' similar Selma style was started popping up everywhere.

And it's not hard to see why. The key to a hero piece is its versatility, ageless appeal and figure-flattering properties – and Whistles' Selma style ticks every box.

Printed all over with abstract polka dots, the shirt dress has long sleeves, a midi hemline and a clever tie-fastening detail which hides lumps and bumps at the midriff.

The green version was an instant hit and sold out in most sizes pretty quickly (if you are a 6 or 8, you can still nab it for £99 here).

Luckily, Whistles has listened to its customers and brought the Selma back for autumn/winter 2019 – but this time, it's in a chic royal blue shade. And fans are already flocking to stores to get their hands on one.

Lightweight and easy to layer, this transitional piece looks just as good with sandals as it does with ankle boots. What's more, you can dress it up or down: wear it to weddings with statement heels, to the office with loafers, or create a casual weekend look with trainers.

If that wasn't enough of a reason, today you can get 20% off the Salma dress – and everything else on Whistles' website.

Hurry though, this promotion is only available for a limited time. And, if the Instagram features are anything to go by, the dress won't be hanging around for too long either.
