How To Wear Spring Dresses

Maxi Dress & Boots

Winter might be behind us, but there’s still plenty more temperamental weather waiting for us in spring. And when it comes to seasonal dressing, that means long skirts and layers. Team up a maxi dress with a lightweight jacket (alongside a jumper, if the forecast doesn’t look too promising) and a sturdy pair of boots.

Light Knit Layers

A contrasting knit can go a long way to elevate (and warm up) an early spring outfit. A jumper or a cardigan will do the trick, but one trend the team are loving this season is a long-sleeve dress styled with a chunky sweater vest and loafers.

Sugar Pastels

Neutrals and mocha mousse might be the timeless choice for colour palette, but spring is the perfect time for sugary indulgences – like a little pastel number. Shades of pistachio, lavender, coral and baby blue are all colour markers of the season (and are sure to help you get into the feel of spring).

Florals

Yes, yes, florals for spring – pretty groundbreaking, we know. But when else are you going to wear them? Lean into the season by opting for petal-clad prints that bring a pop of colour to your typical two-dimensional outfit.

Bold Prints

And if florals are decidedly not your thing, don’t fret. There are plenty of other patterns to try this season – although if you want to stay on-trend, it seems animal is the way forward. If leopard was the star of 2024, this year it’s all about cow, tiger and zebra prints. Maxi dresses offer one of the best ways to show off a good print, and can be easily teamed up with trainers for a casual-chic look.
