Holly Willoughby wowed fans last Friday as she attended Glastonbury Festival in a vintage-inspired mini dress. The TV star, 44, put on a leggy display at Worthy Farm in the Lenna Set from Free People, which she styled with a pair of chunky brown boots, a western-style belt and a brown fedora hat.
She finished the look with some statement jewellery and chic sunglasses, forming the perfect festival look. Her mini-length dress is offered in a breezy, relaxed fit with lace details.
Costing £158, the flowy white number comes complete with a matching cropped lace jacket, both of which are inspired by vintage nightwear. Incredibly versatile, these pieces can be worn with pretty much anything this summer, helping shoppers create different outfits with ease.

Holly’s Free People dress boasts a retro shift silhouette, along with adjustable straps, and a V-neckline. It’s crafted from crepe satin that looks soft and comfortable. Lace panelling around the neckline adds to the vintage appearance of this piece, while the relaxed, slightly A-line fit means it skims over the body for a figure-flattering yet comfy fit.
Alternatively, if shoppers are seeking something more affordable, we’ve found this Reclaimed Vintage Mini Lingerie Cami Tea Dress at ASOS, £35.99, that provides a similar silhouette with lace details, but it doesn’t include a lace jacket. Another option is H&M’s Embroidery-Detail Playsuit, £46.75 (was £54.99), which resembles Holly’s look but with shorts underneath to prevent chafing in hot weather.
As seen on Holly Willoughby, the Lenna Set comes with two pieces; a mini dress and a cropped lace jacket, both of which are inspired by vintage bedroom sets.
For those who are keen on Holly’s dress from the Lenna Set, this summery frock can be styled with practically anything from a denim jacket to an oversized leather jacket depending on the occasion, but adding the matching lace jacket results in a retro boho look. The jacket features short puffed sleeves for subtle volume, as well as a rounded neckline and front tie closure, which can be left open or fastened.
Holly opted to wear the two pieces together, and appeared to be wearing the shade: “summer shower”, reports the Mirror. It comes in four other colours as well, including brown, black, pink and a cream shade that is perfect for those wanting a softer alternative to the white version.
There are mixed comments for the Lenna Set on freepeople.com, with one four-star reviewer saying: “Cute set, love the cut and fit. Definitely a bit pricey for what it is (rayon). Removed a star because “summer shower” is fully mint green and I expected it to be white? Super hard to tell in the photos. I’m keeping it only to dye it black.”
Someone else gave the set three stars and said: “I absolutely loved the set online and thought it would be perfect for Valentine’s, I just got it in the mail and I totally thought it was going to be white ivory but it is actually mint green.”
