When Topshop launched its Monochrome Spot Pinafore Dress earlier this year, it was immediately hailed as one of those pieces that was just bound to sell out. On-trend mixed-pattern polka dots? Check. Flattering ruffle details? Check. Wedding guest outfit perfection? Double check. True to form, it did sell out, leaving a flock of disappointed fashion fans all over the country. Sob. Those who left Topshop empty-handed will be thrilled to learn, then, that the high street store have just relaunched the dress - in a beautiful blue silky material - and it's gorgeous.

But at a slightly pricier £59, the new dress launched on Tophop's website on Wednesday morning - and four sizes have already sold-out. The brand announced the new piece on Instagram on Tuesday night, and shoppers were already pledging to buy it as soon as it went on sale. "The cult dress, now reimagined. Avoid the blues & get ready to add to your basket tomorrow before it's gone!" the post said.
