The 35-year-old beauty recently stunned style lovers with a snap where she was wearing Alora Puff Sleeve Mini Dress by the French Connection.
But don’t let the more high-end name put you off – the gorgeous frock, which usually retails for an eye-watering £85, has now been slashed to a purse-friendly £34 at John Lewis and rival Marks & Spencer (£43).
The dress, which is both simple yet versatile, comes in three different colours – white linen, a more vibrant coral, as well as black, which will never go out of style.
Topped with a crew neck and the on-trend long puff sleeves, this frock comes without pattern or print so you can set your imagination and creativity free when it comes to accessorising.
Whether you’re heading out for a date or a boozy brunch, the styling options of this wardrobe staple are indeed endless – and you could even wear it during the cooler seasons paired with tights and chunky boots.
Meanwhile, for a more elegant outfit, rock the affordable garment with sleek heels, golden jewellery and a bright lippy – and you’re sure to make heads turn.
Love the silhouette of this dress just what I was looking for for my holiday

Speaking on the designer ensemble, the mum-of-two said: “Simple for the win! I just love this look for a summers day brunch and relaxing outside with the girls and a glass of prosecco!
”Throw on pieces like this mean no stressing about putting a look together.
”The minimalist style of the dress is so versatile and can be worn with so many accessories in your existing wardrobe.
”I’ve added leopard print shoes for a fun touch.”
It’s not just Frankie who loves the summer must-have – on John Lewis’ website, delighted fashionistas have given the frock an impressive 4.3-star rating.
One happy shopper wrote: “Love the silhouette of this dress just what I was looking for for my holiday in Greece.”
While another added: “I loved this dress so much I bought the same style in salmon pink! Unusual design and perfect for summer.”
A fashionista who’d bought the frock from French Connection said: ”Great fabric, quite shiny and stiff which gives it body.
”Fits nicely although I had to go down from a L to an XS as I am quite petite. The design is trendy and stylish.”
How to find the perfect DD+ dress for summer
Looking for the perfect summer dress to fit your bigger bust? Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has the perfect solution.
Looking for the perfect summer dress to fit your bigger bust? Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale has the perfect solution.
Finding a dress that flatters your bigger bust can be hard, often dresses can leave your bra showing, squash your bust and just be ill fitting in general.
However, there are a few things you can look out for that will make dress shopping easier.
A V-neck is a really flattering neckline as it gives your chest some more space, however, don’t discount a square neck also, not only is this a trendy neckline, but will also give your bust the room it needs.
Empire line fits are also super flattering, you just need to make sure they fall underneath the bottom of your bra, that way your bust will sit nicely before the rest of the dress skims your body.
Wrap style dresses are also a great option but just make sure to look for an added popper detail, so that you don’t have to use a safety pin to hold the dress in place and stop your bra from showing.
Extra shirring detail on the back will also give the dress more room for stretch around your chest.
And if you’re looking for a backless dress then make sure there is one with a tie detail at the back that means you can still wear a bra.
If all that sounds like something you’re interested in then here at Fabulous we have created a collection specifically designed for DD+ boobs that ticks all of these boxes.

However, whilst the garment was gleaming in mainly positive reviews, not everyone was raving over the frock, which is said to fit true to size.
One customer, who’d given the dress just three stars, warned: “It’s one of those tops where you have to keep tying the belt and rearranging.
”Fabric does crease.”
Shoppers can bag the fabulous dress in sizes XS to XL, however, some sizes are out of stock on some retailers, so it’s best to check them all to avoid any disappointment.
