Saturday 5 April saw the biggest event in the horse racing calendar – the Grand National – take place at Aintree racecourse, with racegoers from all over the country attending, including actress Helen Flanagan. The former I’m A Celeb star arrived wearing a very glamorous pink gown – we’ve found the exact one, and it’s from one of our favourite high street shops.
In a sponsored reel posted to her Instagram account, 34 year old looked stunning in a long pink dress with an asymmetric hem, a red side panel and a dramatic cape feature over one arm, and we’ve found out that it’s the Soft Tailored Colour Block Cape Detail Full Skirted Maxi Dress from high street hero Karen Millen. Usually priced at £289, it’s now half price, down to £144.50 – and it’s still available in all sizes.

Also featuring an asymmetric neckline, high-low hem and tailored fit, this stunning maxi dress is the perfect attire for the races, and also makes a great dress choice for weddings, graduations and other formal events. And if pink’s not your colour, you can also buy it in this bold cobalt blue colour, also reduced in price and fully stocked.
The former Coronation Street actor, who attended the popular sporting event with boyfriend Robbie, paired this statement dress with a red fascinator, also from Karen Millen: the Asymmetric Disk Fascinator With Feather Detail, now also reduced by 50% from £99 to £49.50. Helen kept the rest of her accessories simple with red strappy heels and a beaded clutch bag.
If you’re looking for other occasionwear options on the high street, Coast is a great place to shop; we love this pretty pink midi dress, which we think looks a lot like designer brand Self Portrait – but for £119, or £95.20 when you use the code EXTRA20.
We also love ASOS DESIGN for affordable dresses for any occasion; this £75 pale green maxi dress has a frill neckline similar to Helen’s dress, while this simple £30 navy silk halterneck gown is a gorgeous choice for evening or blank tie events.
