Floral Print Dresses - The Spring Favourite

Florals bring a fun and feminine flavour to spring outfits. After all, spring is all about casting off the heaviness of winter and celebrating those new season blooms! In spring, we feel a little lighter and are ready to be more daring with our outfits. We might go shorter with our floral dresses and show more flesh (think women's floral mini dresses), or we might opt for modest midi or maxi length flowery dresses in sumptuous colours.

Flowery Dresses All Year Round

Floral dresses aren’t the reserve of spring. They also work during summer, autumn and winter, though you might adjust the colour palette according to season (the colder months, ask for richer tones whereas pastels and citrus colours are a hit in spring and summer).

Here are some tips for choosing a floral dress according to season:

Spring
In spring, we’re going for light and fresh vibes. Opt for floral dresses in lightweight fabrics (viscose, cotton, polyester) with soft, romantic florals in pastel shades. Daisies and roses are popular in spring. In terms of design, flowy, feminine styles work well, especially wrap dresses.

Pair your spring floral dress with a lightweight cardigan or denim jacket. Choose shoes according to the occasion (heels for a special event, or sandals, ballet flats or white sneakers for more casual affairs). Add delicate jewellery and a light-coloured shoulder bag or handbag.

Summer
Due to the heat, it’s a good time to try out sleeveless, off-shoulder, or strappy floral dresses. Also consider floral mini dresses if you want to keep your legs cool. If you want more coverage from the sun, opt for a floral midi dress or floral maxi dress.

Material-wise, opt for floral dresses in breathable fabrics like cotton, viscose or linen. Bold and bright florals in vibrant colours are a hit in summer.

Styling summer floral dresses should be effortless. Just wear the dress on its own, and keep accessories to a minimum. Pair with sandals or wedges, and don’t forget your summer hat and sunnies!

Autumn
Rich tones (rust, burgundy, olive) with smaller or vintage-inspired prints work well in autumn. As the weather cools, you also might want a little more coverage, and opt for long sleeve floral dresses, or dresses in heavier fabrics like viscose or polyester. Long floral dresses paired with boots and a suede jacket is a classic look.

A classic look for autumn is a floral in earthy tones dress paired with boots and a suede jacket. Alternatively, rock your floral dress with a chunky cardigan or faux leather jacket. Swap out those lightweight summer bags for bags in heavier materials, like faux leather and suede.

Winter
Winter calls for dark, moody floral print dresses in heavier fabrics. Velvet, lace, wool blends, and dense polyester work well. Consider deep, dramatic colours, or even dark neutrals paired with colourful outerwear. 

Layer your winter floral dress with tights, boots, and jackets for warmth.

Enhance the warmth of your outfit by wearing your floral dress over a long sleeve-fitted top, and with tights or leggings. Pair with heeled boots and a faux leather jacket or structured winter coat. Add accessories like scarves and gloves as needed, and a statement bag in a jewel or dark tone.
