Floral prints are one of the most timeless finishes and have remained on trend year after year for decades. With gorgeous variations circulating each season, such as dainty prints or bold blooms and vibrant pops of colour or pared back neutral hues, florals can be worn for almost any occasion.
A floral dress (or selection of floral dresses if you’re as much of a fan as we are) is a must have in any wardrobe and ticks all the boxes when looking for a versatile yet on trend piece. We’ve styled some of our favourite floral dresses to give you outfit inspiration for whatever your social calendar has in store, regardless of the season.

Beach Day

A flowing mini dress or breezy maxi dress is the perfect companion for long days spent relaxing on a white sandy beach, listening to the waves crashing and feeling the warmth of the golden sun against your salty skin. Slip a loose fitting maxi dress in a soft, drapey material over your bikini for when you’re commuting from the sand to the shade of a parasol at a local beach café. Complete your look with a woven oversized bag and coordinating sun hat.

Date Night

A floral dress is always a winner when it comes to picking an outfit for a date night. Vintage and ornate floral prints in deep, romantic hues of pink and red will see you through an early evening spent watching the sun set, long into a night of conversation under the stars. Look for a silhouette that skims your waist and flows into a gorgeous maxi skirt and pair it with a leather clutch and heeled mules. Add a lightweight jacket over your shoulders to keep you warm on cooler evenings.

Casual Weekend

Floral prints instantly add interest and style to any piece, making for a gorgeously put together outfit with minimal effort. For a casual weekend catching up with friends, enjoying a lowkey long lunch or spending the afternoon by the coastline, a floral mini dress ticks all the boxes for comfort and style. Look for gentle silhouettes and a colour palette that complements your natural complexion. Finish the look with a pair of leather ankle boots or slides.

Winter Getaway

Floral prints don’t have to be exclusively worn in spring and summer. For the perfect autumn or winter look, experiment with moody colour palettes of rich purples, burgundy and earthy browns reminiscent of crisp autumn leaves and stormy skies. A mini or maxi length looks gorgeous with dramatic blouson sleeves and pairs beautifully with leather western inspired boots and an oversized leather jacket.
