Dresses

Dresses, dresses, dresses, we can’t get enough of them. And if you thought they were more of a summer thing, thing again, because the autumn offerings are so good. We’ve got cosy knitted styles, satin and sequin iterations for any upcoming parties, and then there’s jersey. Yep, that’s right, we consider jersey dresses to be up there with the best of them. Because we can all remember how incredible that ruched £25 H&M version (which sold out within hours and is back in stock now) looked, right?  The best part about anything jersey is the stretch, which means instant comfort. It also means they can work for just about any occasion, with the ability to be dressed up or down with a simple swap of shoes and accessories. In fact, some of the best dresses we&...

It’s our job to pore over the trends so that you don’t have to, separating the sure-to-be-short-lived from the enduring, and that’s exactly what we’re presenting you with here. Cue four key styles of dresses (because who doesn’t love the ease of a dress?) that we tipped as winners in our autumn 2022 trend report and that are looking like they’ll go the distance. As we know all too well, the good weather on our shores can be short-lived, and before we know it, those temperatures will be cooling right down, so we’re thinking about dresses that can take us into the transitional time while still ticking off the trend-conscious box. From fuchsia hues to maxi hemlines, discover what styles our money is on below. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates On...

I’ve been working in this industry as a stylist and fashion editor for almost a decade and having dressed stars for glamorous magazine covers and red carpet events, I can, by now, pinpoint the traits of an enduring gown that turns heads but always feels elegant. One that is unique yet timeless— and appropriate for the majority of formal occasions. My advice? Look out for unique, elevated details—things like a cape-effect, a feathered trim or interesting neckline. Even an unexpected colour (of course, black or white remain the most classic but opt for a bright hue that looks incredible on you and you’re bound to be remembered) or textured fabric. Either that or channel Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and go extremely minimalist.  Keep scrolling to see the thirty best gowns that I, as a s...

Though the sun is still making its appearance providing warmer days, there’s definitely the first feel of chilly autumn in the air and with cooler days pressing in, there’s no time like now to plan for the cooler months. And if there’s one item I’ll be wearing once the temperature starts to drop it’s a chic knit dress. Whether it’s a classic black knit mini dress paired with flat knee-high boots or a trending ribbed knit silhouette paired with sandals, the cosy piece is ideal for taking you into the new season in comfort and style. It’s easy to layer and ideal for when you want to feel comfortable yet put together. Knit dresses come runway-approved too. They were spotted in all styles and silhouettes on the runways these past few seasons&...

“What a surprise—she’s wearing another dress,” say people who are probably fed up with following me on Instagram. If, however, you haven’t muted me and my ridiculously expansive collection of dresses, maybe it’s because you share the same shopping passion (and therefore you should check out my monthly column of the best new-in dresses). Which means you might enjoy this story, as it’s dedicated to the places where I buy my favourite ones from. I’m talking, of course, about the brands I have confidence in going back to time and again for both the special-occasion dresses but also the day-to-day ones I like to wear to the office. If there’s one item I know I can feel myself in, it’s a relatively modest, long-sleeved, probably bright o...

We spend a pretty significant amount of our time talking about cult bags and shoes, but cult dresses? They’re entirely rarer. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that there are only ever a couple of dresses that meet the criteria needed to deem them as such. Cast your mind back over the last six months; do any dresses come to mind? Shoes, I can think of Gucci’s crystal slingbacks, The Row’s fisherman sandals, and basically every New Balance trainer ever created. But dresses? Only one stands out, and that’s Loewe’s stretch, tie-dye dress, which you may remember from Kendall Jenner and just about every other fashion person wearing it. That dress? It sold out faster than you can say “must-have”, but the clever people at Loewe saw they were on ...

If there is one thing we will always remember about summer 2022 (the prominence of Crocs aside), it will be the return of the mini. As one Miu Miu micro skirt kicked off a wave of teeny-weeny miniskirts that the street style set took to with great enthusiasm, it wasn’t exactly the most wearable trend to make its way off the runway. If you’re like me, the mini wasn’t top of your wish list in summer, and I have good news for you. There’s another hero hemline this autumn, and it’s the antidote to the micro mini. The modest maxi may look simple and elegant, but it is anything but boring.  From ACNE Studios to Alaïa, Chanel to Givenchy, sweeping black maxi dresses dominated the autumn collections, and unlike the other great season...

On the cusp of a new season, I’m keen to update my dress roster. So naturally, I’ve turned to M&S to try on its best-selling dresses right now. In the interest of being transparent, I’m 5’3″ and a pretty true size 12 with curves and a 32G bust. However, M&S is one of the few high-street stores where 10s are an option for me, so if you too are between sizes, I recommend opting for the smaller. All the dresses you see me in below are a 10 (save for one style which I accidentally grabbed in an 8, but all is not lost).  Now that we’ve got the facts straight, let’s turn our attention to the dresses that truly impressed me. Some tap into my penchant for neutral tones, while others, well, I was surprised at just how much I love...

One of those brands we’re finding ourselves particularly impressed with right now is at the lesser-known-and-more-affordable end of the scale: Nobody’s Child. Since launching in 2015, they’ve focused their efforts on creating responsibly made clothes at an accessible price point, promising to use conscious fabrics, reduce waste and always be transparent with its processes. It also helps that the designs are joyfully bright and made for actual day-to-day life. Tick, tick, tick.  You may well already be familiar with the brand, especially since it’s now stocked on the M&S website and counts the likes of Holly Willoughby, Fearne Cotton and Britney Spears (yep) as celebrity fans. In case you’re not, the collection includes cute tops, co-ords and denim, b...

Cardigans and dresses might just be my new favourite combination. As we transition into autumn, a cardigan feels like a little nod to the cosy days that we know are coming, but when teamed with a dress it’s giving just the right amount of summer vibes. For me, the twosome of a little knit and a nice dress provides a safe option when I’m bored of jeans but still want a smart-casual look. Whether I’m wearing a Reformation-style slip dress or a bandeau billowing maxi, a cardigan is fast becoming my go-to cover up.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.
