With the changeable July weather, we’re all dreaming of escaping. But what to wear when you get there? A pretty dress that works for sunny days is a life saver. And there’s no shortage of them right now, either. From light blue dresses with a whimsical note at Marks & Spencer, to XL bows at & Other Stories, romance is top of the agenda. Meanwhile, dresses with a focus on shirring and bodice details are still trending: see the likes of Dôen and Reformation, where #gardengirldressing, is all the rage. What about if you like clean lines? We love the simplicity of the fit and flare black A-line dress, below, by Arket. Even if you don’t have a holiday booked, a scene-stealing dress can make for the ultimate in escapism. Hill House Home’s Ellie striped conveys a Positano state of mind, just add a basket bag and a sundowner. Shop an edit of pretty dresses below.
