Known for its electric, colourful prints that bring a pop of eye-catching colour to your wardrobe, the brand Scamp Dude is loved by celebrities such as Alison Hammond and beyond - especially on the set of The Great British Bake Off. The fashion brand is even endorsed by our very own group editor, Georgina Terry. So, of course, we decided to put some of the best Scamp Dude dresses to the test.
Brimming with personality, the brand is characterised by its recognisable lightning bolt logo and playful animal prints that make dopamine dressing a touch easier all year round. First launched in 2016, founder Jo Tutchener-Sharp designed her first product while away from her children during a hospital stay - as she wanted to bring comfort to other children who have to be apart from their loved ones, too.
Having developed into a range of clothing for children and, later, a purpose-led fashion brand for women, Scamp Dude has gone from strength to strength. Now, the brand stocks a whole range of dresses, midi skirts and more - all of which can be worn for an occasion or as part of your daily workwear wardrobe.
Group editor of heat and Closer, Georgina Terry, reveals her favourite thing about the brand, I absolutely love Scamp Dude and have (five!) of their dresses in various shades of wow. Theyre just so easy to wear, meaning that theyre both super comfy and a one-stop shop to looking cool. I am always - always - complimented on them, whichever one Im wearing. I pair them with trainers because all other shoes are a lie, and some Tatty Devine jewellery.
You can see Georgina in her Teal with Rainbow Shadow Leopard Maxi Dress from Scamp Dude over on Closers TikTok.
As a result, weve rounded up some of our favourite dresses from the fashion brand. From budget-friendly picks in the sale to occasion dresses to treat yourself to. Here are the best Scamp Dude dresses, tried, tested and recommended by us at Closer.
SHOP: Best of Scamp Dude as chosen by Closer 1. Teal With Rainbow Shadow Leopard Maxi Dress
Chosen by Group Editor of Closer, Georgina Terry
Scamp DudePrice: £110scampanddude.com
View offer This style is especially easy on the body and the eye. It would be great to wear at a picnic or in any situation where you might find yourself sitting (for example, on a chair) as the skirts are so voluminous. No hint of flashing your kickers here.
2. Pink With Blue And Black Shadow Leopard Blouson Sleeve Midi Dress
Chosen by Samantha Price, Senior Commercial Content Writer
Scamp DudePrice: £110scampanddude.com
View offer Im not someone whos massively into bold colour and print as such anymore, so I couldnt quite understand why I was so drawn to this new-in pick - but something about it really called my name. I imagine wearing this to an event with a chic updo or loose waves, styled with equally bold colour-blocking accessories. Im thinking a bright pink fuchsia handbag and matching square-toe heels.
3. Authentic Indigo Zip Detail Tiered Short Denim Dress
Chosen by Charlotte Roszko, Deputy Commercial Content Editor
Scamp DudePrice: £115scampanddude.com
View offer You can’t beat a denim dress, and this gorgeous tiered number definitely caught my eye. I love the zip detailing on this dress, which adds a stylish touch, whilst it also looks super comfortable, thanks to the elasticised waist and puff sleeves. This dress is perfect for dressing up or down, and would look great paired with some tights, a leather jacket and Dr. Marten boots.
4. Dark Khaki With Rainbow Shadow Leopard Full Length Active Leggings
Chosen by Group Editor of Closer, Georgina Terry
Scamp DudePrice: £55scampanddude.com
View offer Ive recently been upping my PE kit (okay, gym wear) game, so the next step for me has to be these leggings. They just need a side pocket to be perfection.
5. Midnight With Teal Snake Print Foil Chiffon Tiered Short Dress
Chosen by Piper Huxley, Commercial Content Writer
Scamp DudePrice: £57.50 (was £115)scampanddude.com
View offer Get on your dancing shoes. I love this dress. It feels like a go-to party number - with plenty of sparkle. It feels a little 70s, a little boho chic, a little iridescent and whimsical - which is totally my vibe. Though teal is not my usual colour, Id love to take this for a little twirl.
6. Neutral With Black Cheetah Split Front Skirt
Chosen by Samantha Price, Senior Commercial Content Writer
Scamp DudePrice: £70scampanddude.com
View offer I love skirts and dresses with a double split seam, and this cheetah print skirt definitely caught my attention. Imagine the endless number of ways you could style this - ugh, the DREAM. Personally Id wear this with a white tee and a pair of white chunky trainers for an effortlessly stylish spring/summer outfit. Throw on a denim jacket for colder days, and youre good to go.
7. Pink With Blue And Black Shadow Leopard Scallop Edge Swimsuit
Chosen by Group Editor of Closer, Georgina Terry
Scamp DudePrice: £65scampanddude.com
View offer And look - look! - how cool is this cossie? Ill be able to splash about with my kids in the pool without fear of a boob or bit of bum falling out as I fall off a slide:
8. Black With Lace Trim Satin Puff Sleeve Midi Tea Dress
Chosen by Piper Huxley, Commercial Content Writer
Scamp DudePrice: £57.50 (was £115)scampanddude.com
View offer Dark lady vibes (!) This black number feels like such a wardrobe staple to me. Its super dark, sleek and a little mysterious, too. I can see this flattering dress worn for any occasion, from parties to a day in the office - with the right accessories (of course). Plus, its made from an eco-material, which is a bonus for me. I love to prioritise sustainability in my fashion choices.
9. Indigo Wash Scallop Strappy Denim Sundress
Chosen by Samantha Price, Senior Commercial Content Writer
Scamp DudePrice: £67.50 (was £135)scampanddude.com
View offer As we step into spring and, later, into the summer, I dont think theres a more appropriate time to add this to your basket. This denim sundress can be styled in so many different ways. For spring? Layer with a cream turtleneck, tights and boots. For summer? Wear as-is with a pair of mules or strappy sandals. The choice is yours.
