It’s just the latest in a long line of different top summer pieces from the retailer that are now in stores.
Shoppers are set for a frenzy over the Gallery Alba Tunic Dress.
The dress is just €35, and is available in sizes 8 to 20.

It features mid-length sleeves with a plunging v-neckline, making it perfect to wear in the warm weather.
The skirt is flowy with a baggy waist, so it’s perfect for anyone who may feel a bit self-conscious.
In the official item description on the Dunnes Stores website, fashion chiefs said: “Crafted in a breathable cotton-linen blend, this tunic is cut to a comfortable, relaxed silhouette.
“It is designed with three-quarter length sleeves and pockets, and all-over embroidery brings the piece to life with abstract floral patterns.
“Gallery is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
The dress is perfect to pack for your holidays, and is super versatile.
Fashion fans could pair it with some high heels for a summer event or a night out.
Or, add some runners to make it a comfy but stylish outfit.
And the retailer is also selling the perfect sandals to wear it with, to create a stunning summer outfit.
The H-Front Slider Sandals are a major bargain at just €7, reduced from €15.
And they’re ideal for this week’s sunshine as temperatures rise to 29C.
Dunnes said: “These sleek slip-on sandals have crossover straps and a gently squared toe, designed for effortless summer style.
“The cushioned insole adds a touch of comfort, making it the perfect choice for everyday wear.”
The brown sandals are the perfect dupe for the Hermes versions which are priced at €760.
THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 – and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
