Alison Hammond’s leopard print dress is so flattering – and it has pockets

Alison Hammond is absolutely nailing it in the style stakes at the moment. From Alison’s This Morning outfits to her off-duty looks, Alison’s confident fashion choices are easy to emulate as more often than not, Alison relies on the British high street for her ensembles.

Alison’s latest look, worn to host a Bridgerton screening event, is a step away from her usual chic co-ords or jersey dresses, but not without the usual Alison accents – think a leopard print dress with pockets. Swoon!

Alison’s bold leopard print piece was a reminder that statement style doesn’t have to sacrifice practicality. The addition of pockets added that rare functional twist that us shoppers love, and the look strikes the perfect balance between glamorous and useful. 

The dress, called the Anna Leopard Print Midi Dress, is a new-in dress at Monsoon. It has plenty of flattering details, including the square neck and cap sleeves (great for hiding bra straps), a nipped in waist and a full, flared skirt.

 Available in sizes 8 – 24, it’s a solid buy to have on hand for many an event, from smart soirees to the office. 

I love how Alison styled it a little edgier. Shunning strappy heels or heeled courts, she wore a pair of black heeled knee high boots from Boden. 

Alison proves leopard print really can be a neutral, and it’s a design she goes back to time and time again.

Last week, Alison wowed viewers in a leopard print shirt from Next and leather skirt, an outfit formula she often wears for her This Morning presenting duties; colourful, patterned shirt or blouse with a midi skirt.
