Following its cyber attack in April, Marks & Spencer has finally reinstated full online shopping, and just in time for its latest partnership with Dame Joan Collins
After hitting pause on all online shopping back in April after an unprecedented cyber attack, Marks & Spencer has been gradually reinstating all of its online shopping to customers. Now, as of July, customers are able to order from the whole website, and it couldn’t have come at a better time, as the high street fave has just teamed up with another icon.
Partnering with Dame Joan Collins – one of M&S Food’s ambassadors – you can now shop a beautiful flower bouquet designed by the Dame herself. The Dame Joan Collins Bouquet with Vase is the second arrangement designed by the actress following the success of her first last year, and features some of her most-loved flowers in a beautiful, timeless bouquet.

The Dame Joan Collins Bouquet with Vase (£75) contains a huge variety of white flowers, with 40 different stems including avalanche roses, oriental lilies, freesias, laurel sprigs, and gold eucalyptus stems. Dame Joan Collins said: “From London to Los Angeles, I always mark special occasions with my favourite flowers – the timeless elegance of white lilies and roses make them the perfect gift.”
Thanks to the white, gold and green colour combination, the arrangement looks elegant, full and is definitely a showstopper, making it perfect for a table arrangement, centrepiece, or somewhere prominent like a hall table or coffee table. The flowers arrive in bud, allowing them to bloom in the following days so you get more from your arrangement.
The Dame Joan Collins Bouquet with Vase also arrives with the perfect sized vase for the bouquet, so you don’t need to hunt around for the right shape or size to display them at their best. Instead they arrive ready to go, so you can enjoy them for longer.
You can pick up a similar bouquet at Prestige Flowers, with the Rome arrangement also featuring avalanche roses, calla lilies, lisianthus, thistle and eucalyptus, combining elegant all-white colours with contrasting greenery. The bouquet is priced at £49.99 for a standard bunch, with an additional £5 charge for a medium arrangement or a £10 extra cost for a showstopping large bunch.
If you want something seasonal that’s guaranteed to bring a little joy to your home, Bloom & Wild’s The British Sunflowers Bouquet is currently on sale, down from £42 to £33.60. It contains 16 stems of sunflowers, agapanthus and solidago, and arrives hand tied and delivered directly to your doorstep.
The M&S Dame Joan Collins Bouquet with Vase also arrives directly to your doorstep inside a protective ribbon-tied box, with gold and purple tissue paper. All you need to do is trim the steps and arrange them in the included vase with some water and flower food to create a bouquet fit for a Dame.
