As a fashion editor, I spend a lot of time both online and in stores checking out the latest collections from a wide range of brands. Recently, amongst all the swimwear, sandals and new warm weather clothing, I keep spotting colour block dresses, and it’s a trend I’m very happy to see back on the summer agenda.
The panelled, multi-coloured dresses were really big news back in the mid to late Noughties, and used cleverly placed contrast tones to make a statement while creating an illusion effect that would flatter your figure in the right places. They ticked all the boxes at the time, and after seeing some of the latest designs, I can confirm that it’s a trend that still works very well now too.
