I’ve been living in dresses lately. It’s too warm for jeans and, honestly, a summer dress just makes everything easier. You throw it on and somehow it all looks put together, even if you’ve done nothing special.
There’s always that one you reach for first, isn’t there? Soft fabric, nice colour, doesn’t cling. You wear it on repeat and call it your favourite without even realising. That’s the one.
Go for Fabrics That Feel Like Air
If the fabric’s thick or stiff, it’s not for summer. I stick to cotton and rayon. They breathe, move with you, and never feel heavy.
The Farrah Cotton Kaftan Maxi Dress has been a favourite of mine for a while now. It’s soft and light with the prettiest hand-painted florals. It feels like something you’d wear on a slow, sunny morning when the world’s still quiet.
And then there’s the Ana Midi Rayon Dress. It’s bamboo rayon, which basically feels like wearing a soft cloud. You can walk, sit, move — it just flows with you. Have a look at our Dress Collection and you’ll see more pieces like that.
Let Summer Dress Prints Reflect Your Mood
Some days I want calm, other days I want colour. Prints do that for me. They sort of match how you feel before you even realise it.
The Daisy Embroidered Dress always makes me smile. Bright stitching, white cotton, a little sunshine in dress form.
If I’m craving that beach feeling, I’ll grab the Sardinia Andiamo Dress. It’s blue and breezy and makes me think of being somewhere by the coast with a drink in hand.
Length Really Changes Everything
I’ve always loved midi dresses. They’re easy. You can run errands, meet friends, and still feel put together. The Alyssa Midi Dress is perfect for that — simple but flattering.
But when the day’s really warm, I go for a maxi. The Farrah Kaftan has that floaty shape that catches the wind just right. It’s one of those dresses that make you feel free without trying.
Don’t Forget the Sleeves
Sleeves might sound small, but they change a dress. The Ana Midi Rayon Dress has flutter sleeves that feel light and soft. The Farrah Kaftan has short sleeves that give just enough coverage while keeping you cool. I didn’t realise how much I cared about sleeves until I started noticing which ones I wore most.
A Summer Dress That Fits Real Life
The best summer dress is the one you actually wear. The one that works when you’re heading to the market, or meeting someone for coffee, or even sitting outside doing nothing much. Some of our New Releases are exactly like that. Just change your shoes or throw on earrings and you’re ready to go.
A Little Thought to End
The perfect summer dress isn’t about price or trend. It’s about how you feel in it.
Maybe it’s the Farrah Kaftan that moves with the wind. Maybe the Daisy Embroidered Dress, bright and happy. Or maybe it’s the Sardinia Andiamo, that lovely ocean blue that makes every day feel like a holiday.
Whatever you choose, make sure it’s something that feels good the second you put it on. That’s what summer dressing’s really about.
Love,
