Party season will look a little different this year with restrictions in place but it doesn’t mean you can’t dress up. Our editor Greta has pulled 14 of her favourite summertime party looks to inspire you for the socially distanced party season, Christmas day and beyond.
Cross Back Organic Cotton dress by Karen Walker
This organic cotton dress by our friends at Karen Walker is a ray of much-needed sunshine. And we love the surprise back cutaway vee back (hit the link below to see). It’s fun, fresh and will be the dress you reach for again and again throughout the summer months.
St Agni Origami Dress at Sisters & Co
The height of elegance. This St Agnes dress from Sisters & Co is cut perfectly to flatter the figure with a clever stripe placement to add impact.
Ana Dress by Juliette Hogan
Our favourite print of the season – the sherbet floral. Juliette designs all of her prints in-house usually in collaboration with florists or artists. So you really do get to wear a piece of art.
Avery Button Front Dress by Max
An elegant not to the 1950s the Avery button dress is sophisticated, fun to wear and will make a statement at your summer event.
Verona Dress in Lilac
The colour of summer! We love this punchy mauve, which is suited perfectly to this dropped waist sundress.
Perfect with flats and could also be worn with a woven waist belt too.
Moira Dress by Harris Tapper
For those who prefer a long sleeve option, you can’t go past the Moira dress with its waist or necktie. We also love the wide cuff shape.
Tiered Poppy Dress by Karen Walker
Classic linen with a bow. Perfect for summer days, nights and everything in between.
Newport shorts and Tulip crop by Caitlin Crisp
This cheeky little ensemble is perfect for a fun New Years Eve party but will also take you to the beach the next day too. We adore the fun floral print.
Cherish Dress by Blak
A strong hue of the season is certainly mauve. Floaty and feminine with a bow to be worn done or undone this versatile piece would suit any event.
Solstice Dress by Kowtow
The photographic print had our hearts. Make from fair-trade organic cotton this dress not only looks good but like all Kowtow pieces it will have you feeling good about your purchase decisions too.
The Simmons dress by Marle
Our editor has this dress in black silk from a couple of seasons ago. It’s been a well-worn staple and a welcome come-back, this time in linen for a slightly less formal look.
Rei Tiered Dress in Citrus Lilium from Sisters & Co
A print like this can be hard to find but once you find it you know it will never date. Reminiscent of the seventys but with a modern take. This fun dress will be a favourite for years to come.
Marle Elisa Dress
A sensual slip that can be dressed down with flats for slow sunshiney days and then dressed up with bold gold earrings for the evening. Also perfect for layering with a shawl or blazer for the cooler hours.
Oriella Dress by Camilla & Marc
The structured lines of this gorgeous gown will turn heads for years to come. This would be perfect for a cocktail party a formal Christmas day or an elegant New Eears Eve soiree. It also comes in white.
