New Look shoppers love 'amazing' £28 summer outfit which skims over 'mum tums'

Fans of retail chain New Look are raving about a "perfect" summer outfit that is ideal for anybody with a mum tum.

New Look's £27.99 Black Floral Strappy Tie Waist Jumpsuit has been given five-star reviews from fans who have praised it for being "comfortable" and easy to iron.

The popular item of clothing is crafted from a soft woven fabric that will keep you cool on warmer days. The jumpsuit is cut in a cropped fit, and features a soft v-neckline. Its tie waist will bring the waist in and skim over bloated stomachs and 'mum tums' - a feature which is complemented by its wide-leg design. Wide legs will flatter chunkier legs during the summer months.

According to the Manchester Evening News, the budget £28 New Look Summer jumpsuit is a stylish and comfortable alternative to summer dresses. It can easily be dressed up or down with trainers, sandals or wedges for summer events such as picnics, BBQs, bottomless brunch, beer gardens, nights out, the races and weddings.

One five-star reviewer wrote of the £28 New Look jumpsuit: "Absolutely love this jumpsuit. Love the wide leg very floaty and breezy. I'm a 16 but bought a 18 as I have quite chucky legs so if your the same size up. I think it looks cuter a size up anyway as it looks super floaty. I'm 5ft 1 I would say this is more ankle length on me but platform cons were helpful. Only negative is the dress looks more green on the pic but in person its more black base with green flowers so it looks a lot darker."

A second said: "Love this jumpsuit, gorgeous pattern and colours, fabric is loose and floaty so super comfy! Only downside is the straps will need shortening for me, but I often have this problem often anyway and nothing a needle and thread can’t fix."

A third wrote: "So comfy, easy to wear and love the print. I'm currently in between sizes so went up a size and I could have probably purchased the smaller size but still looks good." "Super cute and comfy, can dress up for work or down for the beach. Cool and airy, perfect for Summer," said somebody else.

Another fashion fan raved: "Amazing buy. True to size & amazing colours. Had so many compliment’s wearing it already." "Great materials. Really comfortable," penned somebody else.

Another New Look fan said of the £28 jumpsuit: "Comfortable and fits lovely!" Someone else agreed: "Perfect for summer. Love the wide legs as they work perfect to hide mum tum. Great material and washes and irons well. I've had to shorten the straps as it sat a bit low on my ample bosom."

A similar wide leg wrap jumpsuit can be found at River Island for £70. Alternatively, Marks and Spencer's Pure Cotton Cropped Jumpsuit costs £39.50 and comes in regular and long lengths.

New Look's Black Floral Strappy Tie Waist Jumpsuit is £27.99 on the brand's website. New Look currently has 25% off hundreds of Summer styles, including dresses, shorts, tops, shoes and accessories - you can shop the full Summer sale here.
