DUNNES Stores fans are set to love new “trend-forward” barrel jeans for spring after they landed on racks.
The Gallery Barrel Jeans are available in stores and online now.
They are priced at just €30 and come in sizes 8 to 18.
The retailer said: “Crafted from a cotton-blend denim, these blue jeans from Gallery are constructed in a trend-forward barrel shape.
“They are finished with a five-pocket design and belt loops.
“Gallery is available exclusively at Dunnes Stores.”
The jeans can be easily styled with cute tops for a casual spring look.
Meanwhile, Dunnes Stores is making it easy for shoppers to start in the gym this year – with their gorgeous activewear range.
The range features some stunning pieces including jackets, flattering leggings and additional items.
With bargain prices, shoppers are rushing to the tills to pick them up.
One shopper has tried some of the new range, and shared her opinion on social media.
TikTok user Lauren Egerton shared a short video to the platform for her followers.
In the caption of her post, she wrote: “I got a few new pieces from Dunnes Stores and I decided to wear a few of them today! These are all still available to purchase, even the rest that I showed you!”
At the beginning of the video, she can be seen wearing a luxury pair of black pyjamas from Dunnes Stores, with white lining along the edges.
The set costs just €20 in total.
Lauren said: “A very basic outfit for today, it’s only Tuesday. I’m actually off, but I might take myself somewhere nice.”
“I have new bits, they’re very basic.”
The first thing she shows off is a stunning khaki-coloured padded jacket that is perfect for the cold weather.
Holding it up, she said: “Has anyone else bought these jackets in Dunnes?”
She notes that she bought it two weeks ago in black, but went back to buy the second colour.
The Hooded Quilt Jacket comes in four colours: black, blue, khaki, and winter white.
It is available in sizes XS to XXL, and is set to fly off the shelves as it costs just €30.
In the official item description on the Dunnes Stores website, fashion chiefs wrote: “Designed in a diamond-quilted texture, this jacket has a high neck, zip pockets, dipped hems, and a hood.
“Lightweight and shower-resistant, it’s a great option for transitional weather.”
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.
