Wanting to channel Ganni's signature style? This M&S checked dress is identical to the gingham seersucker wrap dress
If you're wanting to give off Scandinavian chic look no further than M&S


Your perfect summer and autumn staple may be closer than you think, with this budget-friendly dress that channels Ganni's signature style without the high price tag.
Finding the perfect dress can be a daunting task. With summer outfits for work and warm weather outings to consider, you need something that really ticks all the boxes. Plus, if you're looking to buy pieces that transition easily from season to season, that's another factor to consider—but don't dismay; we have just the solution.
As an avid fan of the Scandinavian brand Ganni, I am constantly browsing their collections, and consequently, looking for more affordable alternatives by other brands. And a dress from one of Ganni's previous collections, The Seersucker Check Wrap Dress, which originally retailed for £215 is a style which really stands out — making it a winning wardrobe staple in my opinion.
Classic yet stylish, this design is fantastic, and so versatile. However, this style has now sold out due to popular demand, and to be honest the price tag is a high amount of money to part with. However, we've found a delightful alternative dress that is almost identical, and that's less than a quarter of the price, the Pure Cotton Checked V-Neck Dress at M&S.

This dress is a true winner. It's checked pattern is both classic and on-trend, making it a versatile piece for any season. The V-neckline and wrap style are ultra flattering, also making it a top pick if you're looking for stylish dresses to hide a tummy.

And you could even wear your best white trainers for a casual outings. Plus in the cooler months tights and and a cardigan will be your best friend paired with this dress.
