SPRING DRESSES: THE 5 ESSENTIAL STYLES OF THE SEASON

A staple fabric of the 1990s, denim is once again making a comeback this season in dress form! Timeless, the denim dress continues to establish itself as one of the must-haves in wardrobes year after year. A sure bet.

For Spring 2023, various alternatives are available: with straps for a more modest and 90's look, in a shirt dress version, forthe perfect touch of the wild westor in white denim for a chic vibe! All that's left is to choose THE dress that best expresses your personality.

This season is all about colour. Celebrating the return of the sun and of warmer weather goes hand in hand with bright colours. So, add a touch of pep to your wardrobe with an energised palette. Pick from confident shades like lime or Granny Smith, vivid turquoise, lemon yellow, bright orange or bubble gum pink.

If pastels have been in these past seasons, in 2023, fashion is all about intense colours. Case in point: The draped Coperni dress, already worn and approved by Angèle aux Victoires de la Musique

Just because spring is here doesn't mean it's all sun and games. Spring can bring a chilly breeze along with it, making knits just the thing. As opposed to thick winter knits, it's finer knits for this fair season, bringing just enough heft to keep you covered and warm.

With long or short sleeves, or even sleeveless, the knit dress is here. Tighter knits are perfect for hugging those curves for a touch of sexiness. That's why some designers like Ester Manas are betting on knits with contemporary twists, like cut-outs or metallic fibres, to dust off a style that is often dismissed as fusty.

What about a bit of romance for a breath of fresh air this spring? Another major trend of the season: the puff sleeve. Whether oversized and exaggerated or more discrete and long, sleeves this season are taking on baby doll proportions.

A style that has traversed time, the puff sleeve is back yet again. The Irish designer Simone Rocha make a strong case playing with volume to give the puff sleeve a dose of modernity. This season, the puff sleeve is chic, not chichi.

Maybe you're the more romantic type. This season, that's good news, because we are seeing floral spaghetti-strap dresses everywhere. The latest looks are ankle-length, providing contrast to exposed shoulders and their thin straps.

With their defined waistlines and soft floral patterns, the dresses are giving us British garden party vibes. Real symbols of spring, this trend is already in full bloom and ready to spruce up your wardrobe.
