Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past few months, you probably know that animal print is having a major moment this season. This zebra-stripe dress is a great way to immerse yourself in the trend. We're predicting this will be your day-to-spontaneous-night-out go-to for the season.

This vintage-inspired number is giving us some serious 40s vibes. Top tip for making a short-sleeve dress like this one work for work? Layer with a black tailored blazer and slip-on mules – add a pair of statement earrings to really top off the look.

A monochrome dress is always a win in our books, mainly because it goes with everything. Plus, the long sleeves and floor-skimming length of this one makes it oh so fresh. If it’s too girlie for you, dial it down with lace-up boots and a leather jacket.

We don't know what we love about this dress more, the polka dots or the slinky wrap silhouette. Plus, with party season just around the corner, this one is perfect for your work shindig. Just add some fancy red strappy heels and statement earrings and you've got your grown-up evening look sorted.

You just can't beat a floral mini dress on a summer's day. Fact. This style is making a case for cute with the long-sleeve silhouette and button up front, and can we talk about that fabric? Silky-silky lightweight jacquard is screaming the vintage vibes, and we're into it.
