Summer Dresses - Floral Dresses, Milkmaid, Sundress & More

Okay, so, what's the best part about the summer minus the sunshine? If you didn’t say ‘summer fits’, then you’re wrong! Especially when you’re in the UK, we barely get a chance to wear cute dresses and light clothing; we are sun deprived so of course the summer is when we’re gonna skin out! Take a look at some of our favourite summer dresses to model when the sun is shining!

1. Floral dresses

Sometimes patterned clothing can be a little too much, too out there. But something about a floral dress during spring and summer just works! Is it just us? The way it encapsulates the season is like you are the garden, without all the pesky bees and pollen. It makes you want to twirl around and frolic through fields of daisies as you embrace your feminine side.

The pattern itself can be a little overwhelming to wear at first but the key is moderation - stick to solid coloured shoes or sandals and simple accessories. Floral dresses can range for various occasions, whether you’re going out for a date, a picnic in the park with your friends or heading off to work but still wanna look cute.

2. Boho dresses

Bohold! We’ve got more styles for you! If you’re a free spirit and embrace artistic expression, then a boho style is your thing. A mixture of patterns with an emphasis on elements and nature, the loose-fitting style and flowing fabrics make you feel like a modern-day earth-witch come back to life, accessorising with your trinkets.

This style exudes comfort while making a statement with bold prints, flowing fabrics that’s layered in creativity! If huge patterns aren’t your thing, then we got you! You can also have a more subtle approach to this style and let your jewellery, shoes and accessories do the talking. We’ve got a ton of styles to choose from on site, so why not try a new version of you this year. If there’s one thing you should manifest, this is it!

3. Sundresses

What a vague description, am I right? It could be literally any dress you wear in the summer and that’s what we're going with. A sundress is made from light, breathable materials to keep you cool under the hot sun. From spaghetti straps, backless designs and flowy ruffle sleeves, there’s a summer dress out there for everyone; so, take your pick and then take your pics.

Not to mention, it’s so easy to get dressed when there’s only one thing to wear – one dress and the outfit is complete and from there it’s so easy. Just find some shoes; sneakers or sandals usually go, a cute bag, your favourite jewellery and you are ready for a picnic, a date or a casual day out! The point is not to underestimate a classic summer dress, they'll end up as your go-to fit for any occasion

4. Milkmaid dresses

Ah, the cottage core aesthetic. The way this style took over felt like it came out of the blue, but boy are we glad that it did. It has a modest feminine charm that is flattering. Usually, a milkmaid dress is all about a midi length, but you can find ones that fall above the knee too. You can recognise them by their puffy sleeves and a square or sweetheart neckline. They tend to be a little more fitted around the waist and feature a side slit while incorporating fun colours and floral designs for a delicate touch! Check out our deals on site now and embrace the soft peasant girl vibes this summer.

5. Maxi dresses

This one is for those days where your legs aren’t shaved, and you just don’t want to shave them – I know we all have days like that. The best kind of cover-up dress is one that you can wear when you’re not feeling 100% but still want to look cute and a maxi dress ticks those boxes. They tend to be a bit more fitted around the waist and flowy at the bottom, making them casual enough to feel relaxed whilst still looking sophisticated for events that require a little dressing up.

Complete the look with other clothing like a denim jacket, blazer or a cardigan – depending on the mood for the day and the occasion. Maxi dresses are versatile pieces that are available in many styles such as formal dresses, professional, boho style, everyday casual and more! Put your faith in a maxi dress this summer, for those lazy days looking cute is a must.

6. Bodycon dresses

For those days where you want to feel a little sexy and show off your curves, a bodycon dress is just the thing you need! This style of dress is usually made with a stretchy material and designed to be close-fitting to show off the body’s natural silhouette. The lengths can differ and depending on what you want, you can opt for a maxi length to make you look taller, a midi length for a more refined look, or a mini length for that extra sex appeal.

Pair a body con dress with some heels or boots for the perfect date night outfit or cute trainers for a casual look. The outerwear really makes or breaks an outfit too so just be mindful of that. A leather jacket is a classic, a plain or flannel shirt you can tie around the waist can add dimension, or a light cardigan. The options really are endless! Just feel it out, see what works for you – remember that confidence is key, head out of your home strutting your stuff!

7. Shirt dresses

Oh shirt. You can’t go wrong with a simple shirt dress, there’s something about the button up with collars that leaves you feeling like you’re ready to take on the world. The subtle masculine energy gives “Boss B***” and can be worn for work or even as casual wear – if you know how to style it. A summer hat, simple trainers or sandals and a tote bag can be your staple summer outfit.

Alternatively, pair with some boots or pumps, a simple jacket and your favourite purse and you’re ready to get that raise in no time (yes, outfit matters)! They tend to be on the looser side so if you don’t want to look too boxy then add a statement belt to bring in that waist to show off your curves! Incorporate a shirt dress into your wardrobe and get that effortlessly refined look whenever you want.
