These six frocks will have you looking as fresh as a flower

Garden party season is finally here, which means refreshing cocktails, yummy finger foods and pretty floral arrangements—now all your need is something fabulous to wear!

We’ve rounded up six of our favourite picks so you can be both comfortable and elegant at your next backyard spring soirée…

 

1. Wilfred Beaune Dress from Aritzia, $195

This beautiful chiffon dress by Wilfred is a perfect choice for a day in the sun. We love the yellow floral print, and the wrap style will complement any body type. Throw on a pair of nude wedges and you’re ready to go. As a bonus, the permanent pleats won’t lose their shape, even if you put this outfit in the wash.

 

2. Daphins Wrap Dress from Club Monaco, $268

Feel stylish and flirty in this red-and-white number by Club Monaco. We love the classic stripes and ruffles—and the off-the-shoulder cut adds just the right modern touch. Add some classic pearls, sandals and a denim jacket for your next outdoor celebration.

 

3. All-over Eyelet Dress from J.Crew, $186.50

You can never go wrong with a cotton dress for the warm weather. From the big bow to the simple detailing, this sophisticated style by J.Crew has afternoon tea written all over it. Want to add more colour? It’s also available in red and navy.

 

4. Twik mega ruffle bare-shoulder dress from Simons, $49

Twik’s exclusive garden party frock is a must-have this season. Casual and comfortable, it’s a fabulous dress which can be worn both day and night. Not to mention, we also love that it’s made from natural eco-friendly lyocell weave. Tie a silk scarf around your neck as a statement piece or pair with lace-up wedges for an extra trendy look.

 

5. Asymmetric Checked Dress from Zara, $79.90

Relaxed and easy-going, this pretty bohemian style dress from Zara gets our top pick. The A-line cut will have you moving around effortlessly, and the earthy colour is a great option for any hot day. Show off some leg with gladiator sandals, throw on a sun hat and off you go.

 

6. Patterned Wrap-front Dress from H&M, $39.99

This fun blue number by H&M is super feminine, and you can’t go wrong at this price. The subtle ruffles on the front and the longer length accentuates the body perfectly—totally luncheon ready!
