This Morning host Alison Hammond often wears stylish yet accessible looks, with many pieces from high street brands. Today, her dress was a chic winter-ready knitted number from Karen Millen in a lovely burgundy colour. And the good news is not only have we found the dress, but it’s also on sale!
On Thursday’s show, Alison wore the knit midi dress, which her stylist, Rachael Hughes, later said was from Karen Millen. Although it has sold out in the shade worn by the TV star, it’s still in stock in Rust, a dusty rose/brown that is the closest to burgundy.
Even better, this shade has been reduced by 50%. Originally retailing for £119, the dress is now just £60. It’s also on sale in blue and olive, but only those two shades are discounted by 20%, bringing the price down to £103.20.
Right now, Karen Millen also has an additional discount code that can be used at check-out to bring the price down even further. Shoppers can get an additional 15% off knitwear with the code KMKNIT15. But, like most discount codes, it’s likely to run for a limited time.
The smart dress has a sophisticated, elegant cut, with a draped neckline and batwing sleeves that add some dimension and drama. It’s midi length, and is made from a ribbed wool-look knit fabric that gives it a luxurious feel.
With the cold weather still lingering, this is a great dress for the season, as it’s a fairly versatile piece that can take you from the office to special events while keeping you warm, depending on how you style it. Alison’s stylist paired the dress with pointy black heels, but it would work just as well with ballet flats or ankle boots for a more casual look.
It could be dressed up with some statement shoes and big jewellery, but would also look equally lovely with more understated accessories for a minimalist look.
It doesn’t currently have any reviews, though perhaps one of the main downsides is that, because of the fabric and cut of the dress, it isn’t versatile enough to be worn year-round and is probably only for your winter wadrobe.
