HOW TO STYLE CASUAL DRESSES FOR SUMMER

Already counting the hours to warmer days and lighter evenings, lunch-hour garden sunbathing and BBQs with friends? We don't blame you! Pack away the layers and welcome the return of casual summer dresses. Oh, how we've missed them. Our women's casual summer dresses are inspiring canvases for bringing out your style with jewellery and accessories, too. 


Elevate a looser fit with a statement belt or leave it oversized. Slim-fitting designs are a heaven-made match for baggy jackets, especially if you're dressing down for Sunday fundays. In our eyes, casual never means predictable – that's why our summer dresses brim with eye-catching colours, standout prints and irresistible designs. Here are our top summer dress styles and how to wear them this season.

PERFECT FOR A HEATWAVE


When the sun decides to make an appearance, flowy materials and light textures are key. Try an ankle-length dress with a bright orange hue for total prairie-chic vibes. The breezy shape will help you keep your cool in a longed-for heatwave – hey, a girl can dream. Pair yours with sandals for a garden brunch, or throw on a denim jacket and chunky trainers to transform this into an everyday look for park picnics. Trust us, eye-catching colours and softer silhouettes will keep you comfortable and confident, whether you're chilling in the garden or heading out for cocktails.

THE ULTIMATE GETAWAY COMPANION


Picture the scene: you're exploring a cobbled street lined with whitewashed houses and pops of bright pink flowers. No, we're not talking about your Instagram feed. Slip into a long-sleeved dress made from airy material and island-hop IRL to your heart's content. Pick out the white tones in the broderie trims and summery floral pattern by choosing a white bag to do matchy-matchy the right way. Statement details like long, voluminous sleeves or a pretty tie detail at the neck mean you can keep your accessories simple. Pop on pair of fashion-forward sunglasses and silver hoop earrings (not just for the club anymore, FYI) to transform this women's casual summer dress into a dinner-on-the-terrace evening outfit.

CASUAL CAN BE COLOURFUL


You've got an icy piña colada in hand, the sand underneath your feet and the sunset glow hitting your face. Our maxi wrap dresses will be your new beachside bestie, from a holiday morning stroll to the twinkling beach bar you've been dreaming of. Ramp up a glamazon-inspired look and pair a striking green dress with neon flat shoes for an outfit worthy of an Insta post.

With billowing sleeves and an easy-to-wear wrap, this dress hits both style notes.

PINK: YOUR NEW OBSESSION


Haven't you heard? Pink is the new black. It's the colour of the season, and we definitely can't get enough of it in our collection of ladies' casual summer dresses. Whether you're strolling through the market or sipping coffee in the sun, the day calls for a dress that can do it all. Look for one with a loose fit and light fabric to keep you cool. Pair it with white trainers and stacking rings for off-duty style. When you find yourself in a rush, this is the perfect throw-it-on dress. Swap flats for heels to take this A-line design to the dance floor, or slippers to take it to the lounge carpet (ssh, we won't tell anyone you stayed in with a boxset).

BACKLESS IS BACK


When the mercury soars, we're big fans of breezy silhouettes and cut-outs for days. Take a lightweight floral dress with a peekaboo back, for instance. Demure colourways like white and periwinkle blue let the edgy backless design do all the talking – and when it's so hot, who wants to stand around talking anyway? Pair your dress with woven flatform wedge sandals – that perennial summer staple – and an ever-on-trend rattan bag. It'll totally nail that "just got back from Greece" aesthetic.
