If there’s one label whose signature floral designs epitomise summer occasion wear, it’s Ted Baker. Perfect for weddings, barbecues, getaways and functions alike, the brand is a firm favourite for many owing to its feminine styles and meticulously crafted silhouettes that suit all body types. Now, the retailer has introduced a substantial sale which features up to 30 percent off selected summer pieces and up to 40 percent off outlet purchases.
While many of the most coveted items are disappearing quickly in various sizes, we’ve identified a bargain on a stunning dress that can be styled casually or formally depending on the event. The ENDRINA Floral Print Balloon Sleeve Mini Dress was originally £179 but has had a substantial 50 percent cut from the price, bringing the cost down to £84.

Showcasing romantic billowing balloon sleeves that provide lightweight arm coverage during warmer conditions, the dress also features a flowing a-line skirt that glides over the midsection making it ideal for bloated days.
The retailer describes the attractive crepe chiffon fabric as moving ‘like a dream’ while the gathered waistline cinches wearers in at their narrowest point. The finest aspect? This dress can be worn for special events, paired with heels or ballet pumps, and styled casually for daytime with boots or sandals. It is worth noting that the dress is only available in one length, meaning taller or more petite shoppers may find it difficult to achieve their ideal fit. Despite this, the garment has numerous advantages — including the fact that it can be ironed and machine-washed in line with the care label’s instructions.
Elsewhere, those eager to inject a splash of colour into their wardrobes ahead of the coming season may wish to take a look at Next’s Red/Pink Floral Pleated Mesh Print V-Neck Occasion Maxi Dress, which is priced at £69. One customer remarked of the style: “Beautiful dress, fits perfectly”, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Over at Marks and Spencer, the retailer also boasts an extensive selection of going-out dresses available to purchase online. One particularly eye-catching design is the £50 Satin Floral and Lace Midi Slip Dress, which features a fashionable butter yellow hue with a dainty floral print.
Returning to Ted Baker, and while the striking ENDRINA Floral Print Balloon Sleeve Mini Dress is unlikely to remain in stock for long, there are also plenty of other gorgeous pieces in the sale.

The Lilypad t-shirt is ideal for pairing with ballet pumps and a maxi skirt for barbecues, brunches and pub gardens. We also reckon it would immediately smarten up flowing holiday trousers for sightseeing or lengthy lunches in the sunshine, though it’s worth noting that customers who favour a looser fit may want to size up as it boasts a more form-fitting stretch design.
