The wait is over

It seems as if the UK and Ireland are in the bane of Australian brands, and to be honest, we don't blame them.

There's just something about an Aussie design that looks so effortlessly chic.

With the holidays approaching, we may have found the perfect Christmas party dress, and one that’s the very image of Rebecca Vallance’s iconic Australian designs at that.

Fashion fanatics have long been gushing over Rebecca Vallance's designs, including Princess Beatrice, Pippa O'Connor and Doireann Garrihy.

Although the Australian brand is available to order in Ireland, it comes with quite the hefty price tag, and that’s where one of our national treasures, Dunnes Stores, steps in.

Dunnes Stores have dropped a stunning mini dress, and it's giving major designer vibes. And best of all, it's affordable!

The Savida Jacquard bow dress is fitted and ends mid-thigh, featuring a slight cinching at the waist, giving it a very flattering shape.

However, it's the puffed sleeves and three velvet bows across the chest area which take this dress to a designer level.

This gorgeous number doesn't need tons of accessories to jazz it up, however, pair it with some patterned tights and a pair of kitten heels, and you'll be sure to turn heads at that upcoming Christmas party.

The Savida mini dress is available in Dunnes Stores and is priced at €50.

However, keep your eyes peeled, as fashion fanatics have been anticipating this drop and is therefore certain to fly off the rails.

Now, if you want to get your hands on a Rebecca Vallance–esque dress and you’re ready to spend your Christmas bonus on something special, why not just buy the real thing?

You can buy the Kaylee bow-detail minidress by Rebecca Vallance on MyTheresa for €600.

If you prefer a bit of a longer model, the Eliana puff-sleeve midi dress by Rebecca Vallance, priced at €623, is definitely worth looking at.
