    Words by Maisie Bovingdon

    Remember the polka dot pinafore dress Topshop released last year, which sent the entire nation into a frenzy? Let us jog your memory; it was released in white with black polka dots and sold out immediately, before it was released in black with white polka dots, a floral print and animal pattern.

    Well, it's FINALLY made a comeback.

    The high street brand has now launched two new designs of the Lace Pinafore Dress, and we have no doubts it will be a huge sell out this year.

    Topshop 80s Floral Pinafore Dress, £55

    The must-have wardrobe staple this summer comes in two colours, black and white, and is the exact same style as last year's version but with the added detail of lace around the neckline, back of the dress, as well as a panel down the front of the dress.

    The mid-length dress has a v-lunge neckline, as well as cut out back detail and thigh high split.

    However, eagle-eyed shoppers will notice a slight difference in the new creation in comparison to last year's version.

    The polka dot dress had ruffle detail down the front, which the new release has not included.

    Some will also notice the lace version has belt detail around the waist to accentuate your frame, and this was not a feature the original had.

    One more thing, the Lace Pinafore dress comes in sizes 4 to 18, and costs £69, but the Mix Spotted Midi Dress retailed for £20 less.

    In the words of Ariana Grande (kinda), we see it, we like it, we want it, we're gong to get it.
