Maxi vs midi dresses
Midi and maxi dresses are what is currently trending, so jump on board with these cool and carefree styles.
The midi length refers to mid-calf which is below the knee but above the ankle. Midi might also be just below the knee or just above the ankle. This is in contrast to a mini dress which hits above the knee.
A maxi dress is a full length dress, finishing at the ankle. Both styles are relaxed and easy to wear, plus perfect summer options!
Trending Colours to Add to Your Wardrobe
Our new in range of dresses capture the latest styles and trending colours you’ll be wearing all season. We have shift dresses with a short sleeve and sleeveless smocks in plain neutral shades and floral prints for styling with flats and a bag.
A print dress does all of the talking for you - just add some simple accessories! Discover floral dresses with a v-neck and midi or maxi length as well as paisley dresses with long sleeves in softly muted shades that are perfect for pairing with cardigans and boots in the winter.

Dresses and Shoes
Heels, wedges, flats, slip-ons and even boots are the perfect shoes to pair with a dress.
Discover the cool confidence that comes with slipping into a dress with a cute pair of flat sandals or slip-ons and winter dresses with ankle boots when it’s time to show your don’t-mess-with-me side.
Tip: Heels and even wedges can elevate a dress from understated to a little more dressy as you transit from day to night.
Dresses with Jackets
A short-waisted jacket pairs perfectly with a summer dress. Choose a white denim or blue denim jacket or a lightweight jean-style jacket for a casual covering.
A cute cropped knitwear cardigan or jumper is easy to throw over a dress when there’s a slight chill in the air, while button up shirt dresses over pants or shorts can be a jacket themselves. If you’re wearing your dress as workwear, layer them under a structured blazer for a sharp, professional look.
Accessories
For a sassy look and sun protection, add a straw sun hat with a cute across-the-shoulder bag and keep your jewellery suited to the dress and the occasion. In the winter, keep warm in a knit dress with our range of scarves in seasonal colours.
