They've been back in vogue since last season, and we've gone head over heels for girly dresses. We're seeing more and more inventive styles, ultra-flattering cuts and killer décolletés.

This season's dresses are totally fun, in retro or romantic styles, trendy prints, in light cotton or comfy jersey. We love them because you can create a complete look with just one piece, and they're sexy but not overly so - you could still wear them as part of a casual look as well as on a night out.
