Mark My Words: You'll See This Cute Dress Trend All Over Europe This Summer
We're finally entering summer-dress season and I've noticed an unexpected common thread amongst the pretty dresses I've bookmarked so far. Instead of shopping styles emblazoned with florals or splattered with polka dots, this season, my picks resemble my fruit bowl, and I can't get enough. Be it cherries, bananas, lemons or otherwise, all fruit is welcome in my summer rotation. Peppering dresses in both minimal designs and all-out prints, high-street and designer brands have ensured there are plenty of options on the market.
Adding a playful twist to your day-to-day styling, fruit-print dresses will see you through summer events from beachy wanders to late-night get-togethers. With a laid-back energy and flirtatious charm, these spirited dresses are the key to easy summer style.
The perfect addition to any warm-weather or holiday wardrobe, I need only look at a zingy citrus print and I'm immediately transported to the Amalfi Coast. And with fruit-print designs coming out of iconic Italian and French fashion houses this (and every) summer, this is a trend that I know will sweep Europe as temperatures rise.
From Reformation's sweet cherry dress to Damson Madder's citrus style, if you haven't already, now's the time to cut yourself a slice of the trend. Keep scrolling to shop our edit of the best fruit-print dresses.
