All our summer dresses

What exactly is a summer dress? Well, it’s that colourful kaftan that billows in the breeze as you stroll along the beach. It is also that floral creation that carries you across the midsummer dancefloor or that patterned piece that brings festive vibes to an evening barbeque. They all have something in common – they’re soft, comfortable and cool. Which is just what you need when the mercury is rising and you want to enjoy every moment of glorious sunshine.

Summer dresses are versatile creations too. Teamed with the right accessories, your summer dress takes you from desk to dinner with friends. Imagine a solid-colour cotton dress with a simple silhouette. Match it with elegant and comfortable leather sneakers and a colourful fabric bag. If the day calls for a style that works for the office, simply pull a lightweight linen jacket over your summer dress. Slip out of your sneakers into a pair of sandals or ballet pumps for the evening. Accessorise with a neat necklace, a small handbag over your shoulder and you’re instantly ready for a sparkling summer soirée.

Which fabrics should you look for when choosing summer dresses? Cotton and linen are fantastic on warm summer days. Our summertime superheroes – breezy, breathable and bewitching. A loose fit dress lets you move with ease and keeps you cool through the midday hours. A sleeveless, organic cotton jersey dress will quickly become a summer go-to. Let’s not forget this season has cooler evenings too! This is when a knitted cardigan or a shawl comes into play, ideally in a shade that picks up a colour or pattern on the dress. And talking of colours and patterns – lots of our summer dresses are like candy for the soul. Flowers, stripes, dots – everything is allowed. Find a summer dress that reflects your unique personality. Maybe in a seaweed shade of green with a printed floral design? How about a long, cerise dress with gathered tiers and lace inserts? Or perhaps a dress with a checked pattern, softly puffed sleeves, side pockets and side slits? Summer is the season to indulge in bright colours and artistic patterns. But let’s not forget that little black dress. A short, black dress with a deep frill hem can be exactly right for the occasion. Wear it with an underskirt to add more length and a cardigan to provide more warmth. How about a velour dress with beautifully embroidered red roses? Whether you’re looking for a relaxed-style kaftan, a playful floral dress or a black creation, you’re sure to find the perfect piece for your summer adventures when you browse our exciting selection.
