And shoppers have been in a frenzy over them – as they are both versatile and perfect for summer.
Now, Dunnes Stores has released a new waistcoat that is perfect for summer.
The Savida Jersey Waistcoat is a bargain, selling for just €15.
It comes in a beautiful light pink shade, making it super versatile to wear with any outfit.
Shoppers can pick up the waistcoat in sizes XXS to XXL.
Though shoppers should be warned that the largest size has sold out online.
The waistcoat features an elegant round neckline, with short sleeves.
And for an added style element, there are large buttons up the centre.
It is perfect to wear over anything this summer – either as a style choice or to layer up when temperatures drop.
In the official item description on the Dunnes Stores website, fashion chiefs said: “This button-through waistcoat from Savida is crafted from durable cotton-rich jersey fabric for ultimate comfort and structure.
“Designed in a relaxed fit, it’s a chic layer that pairs perfectly with denim for a stylish, everyday look.
“Savida is available exclusively at Dunnes stores.”
And it’s not the only piece that has shoppers racing to the tills.
Dunnes Stores fans are loving a new “sleeveless” ribbed dress for summer.
The Jersey Ribbed Midi Dress is available in stores and online now.
It costs just €12 and comes in sizes XS to XXL.
And all sizes are currently available on the Dunnes Stores website.
VERSATILE DRESS
The retailer said: “This sleeveless ribbed dress is cut to a flattering, form-fitting silhouette that falls to a midi length.
“The stretch fabric hugs the body comfortably, making it perfect for both casual days and dressed-up evenings.”
The Jersey Ribbed Midi Dress comes in four colours: Black, khaki, red or stone.
The dress is very versatile and can be easily styled with a pair of sandals or white trainers for a cute holiday look.
Shoppers can add the waistcoat on top of the dress for a nice pop of colour, or layer it over when the temperatures drop for some added warmth.
THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 – and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
