The Best Spring Dresses From Zara, & Other Stories and Mango

last updated 21 May 2019

Summer is nearly here and we are beside ourselves with excitement. We've wasted no time in whipping out our tan sandals and unearthing our favourite floaty midi skirts, all in anticipation for those hot British days. Okay, so we might be getting a little ahead of ourselves, but one thing's for certain: It's legitimately dress weather, and we are already stocking up.

While the midi might've been our first point of call in 2018, this year, we're seeing a more eclectic range of styles proliferate on the high street. For one thing, the mini has made an unexpected return, but this time it feels distinctly grown-up and more elegant than ever, and we've seen plenty of influencers try out thigh-grazing hemlines with knee-high boots over the last few months.

At the other end of the spectrum is the maxi, which is still feeling fresh for summer. But these aren't your average bohemian linen looks—these are chic, city-ready showstoppers. Just look at Zara's achingly cool tie-dye dress, which we are all desperate to have in our wardrobes.

However, we know that regardless of whether minis are in or out, you'll still buy the same styles that flatter you and make you feel your best (and quite rightly), so we've put together an edit of the best minis, midis and maxis from three of our favourite high-street stores.
