DUNNES Stores shoppers are set for a frenzy over a “stylish” new denim jacket after it landed on racks.
Earlier this year, fashion fans were racing to the tills to get a gorgeous denim waistcoat.

The Savida City Girl Denim Waistcoat was on sale for just €30 and came in sizes XXS to XXL.
The retailer said: “This indigo wash cotton denim gilet from Savida showcases a beautiful quilted design.
“It features two tie fronts that allow you to layer it or wear it on its own.
“Savida is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
And now, the retailer is selling a long-sleeve jacket version which is set to sell out fast.
The Savida Denim Quilted Collar Jacket costs just €40.
It is available in sizes XXS to XXL, and comes in a dark denim colour.
The jacket features a folded collar, with crisscross detailing across the material.
Similar to the waistcoat, it features two ties in the centre to keep it closed.
In the official item description on the Dunnes Stores website, it says: “Made from durable cotton denim, this Savida jacket features diamond-shaped quilting, an exaggerated collar, two tie closures, and roomy patch pockets.”
“Pair it with a white tee for a stylish look.
“Savida is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
It is the perfect piece to layer over an outfit during the summer when the temperature drops in the evening.
And it’s not the only piece that shoppers are racing to get.
Dunnes Stores fans are rushing to get their hands on a new pair of summer sandals that cost just €30.
The Savida Leopard Footbed Mule Sandals are now available online and in shops around the country.
The sandals have arrived at just the right time as shoppers are getting their hands on summer bargains early.
As punters look ahead to June and July holidays, it’s always a good idea to be prepared.
And the new sandals are ideal for holidays, as they are built with comfort in mind.
Because of the thick footbed sole, the shoes are ideal for wearing when exploring a new place.
And they can easily be dressed up for a nighttime outfit by pairing them with a cute summer dress.
TREND FORWARD
The sandals cost just €30 and come in sizes 36 up to 41.
However, there’s bad news for some fans of the shoes; sizes 36, 40, and 41 are already sold out due to high demand.
But some lucky shoppers might still find the size they are looking for in store.
They’re the perfect way to embrace the leopard-print trend that blew up last year.
Fashion bosses called the shoes “trend-forward”.
An official description of the item reads: “These slip-on sandals from Savida are a stylish, trend-forward addition to your summer wardrobe.
“They feature two straps with adjustable buckles for a customisable fit, and contoured footbeds that provide ultimate comfort.”
And the sandals are from the exclusive designer line Savida, which is only available to Dunnes Stores customers.
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.
