At the tail end of the year, all you need to feel complete is a great dress. Here’s our guide to the best styles out there.

Slip Away
With the ’90s resurgence still in full swing, there’s nothing more chic than a slip dress. Mix it up with colours and lengths.

Back to Black
You don’t want a little black dress, you need one. Whether slinky, figure-hugging or draped, the LBD is an essential item.

Drop it
If an elongated silhouette is what you’re after, a drop waist is what you need. Maxi, midi or mini, it works in every style.

Statement maker
From weddings to last-minute dinner reservations or just to liven up a boring Sunday, it’s important to have a bright and bold dress that makes you feel your best.
