This beautiful made in Italy piece is cut from lustrous silk-georgette decorated with ’70s-inspired blooms. Dress it down for the day with a pair of effortless sandals and a floppy straw hat, and dress it up for the night with a pair of wedges or pumps for an effortless evening look.

What screams summer more than a cherry yellow shade? Indulge in the lazy and carefree summer mood by donning this pretty wrap dress with a delicate floral print, V-neckline and ruffled detailing along the skirt. For the quintessential summer look, wear this with a pair of espadrilles.

For those unbearably hot days, a short mini dress is the answer. This playful one is perfect – featuring a fun patchwork, floral-print design, this layered frock has adjustable straps and feminine lace trims. Match with a trendy crossbody bag for an ideal brunch look.

If comfort is your number one priority, look no further than this super lightweight and breezy cotton dress. With a dropped waist, relaxed fit and tiered skirt that flares out gently, this comfy and versatile frock oozes a laid-back feel. We can think of nothing better than to hang out at the beach all day in this piece.

For a subtle pop of colour that is not too loud, pastel shades are the answer. And instead of going for just one colour, why not go for many? This long, multicoloured pattern dress is eye-catching but not too over-the-top; finish off with a pair of white sneakers or sandals.

You can’t do summer without at least one versatile white dress, and this affordable option from Zara is great. With a flattering A-line silhouette, V-neckline and pointed asymmetric hemline, this piece will look good on just about everyone. The lace detailing also adds a nice girly touch.
