There Is Now A Black Version Of The Zara Polka Dot Dress

Everyone knows someone who owns the Zara polka dot dress. In fact, it's hard to walk down the street or get on the tube and not spot at least one woman wearing it.

It's not an exaggeration to say that it's THE dress of the summer, it even has its own Instagram account, which currently has 18.5k followers.

And it seems the frenzy shows no signs of abating, as the dress has now been re-released, in a new colour way, which is perhaps even more wearable than the first one.

It now comes in black, but the slight hiccup is that it's only available in Australia at the moment, according to Grazia.

However, that doesn't mean it won't be available soon in the UK, and given the dress' incredible popularity, I'd be surprised if it didn't.

Shop now: PRINTED DRESS for £39.99 from ZARA

In the meantime however, you can still shop the original version in store and online at Zara.

Then all you need to do is keep an eye out on the Instagram account, it's probably a matter of time before you get tagged...
