Our We Try Before You Buy series aims to take the stress out of shopping and eliminate the number of post office visits you make each month to return failed online orders. We test new-season buys and styling ideas so you don’t have to.
On the day the country begins to reopen, there is a new sense of optimism and finally a reason for us to dress up once again. Dresses had become redundant for many over the past 12 months—apart from those who took the bins out in ball gowns, of course. However with weddings rescheduled and restaurants back open, dresses are the joyful item we’re certain will end the loungewear era.
Our We Try Before You Buy series sees us try on items to give a closer look at the pieces that we truly love and explain why we think they are worth it. As many plan their re-entry looks, dresses was an obvious focus for this month. We video called some of our favourite fashion friends from Ghana to Surrey, and asked them to answer our call wearing their favourite dress for 2021. There was no grey jersey in sight—the one thing all of these dresses have in common is they are all designed for fun and for a summer spent making memories. Think colour, loud prints and statement silhouettes.
