I’m convinced the Tove Lauryn dress may just be the hardest working dress in fashion. Nearly every influencer on my feed seems to have worn it at some point or another however each time I see it, it still feels fresh. Most recently, Hannah Stafford-Taylor took to a yacht in St Tropez in this season’s coral offering, proving this dress isn’t just for chic day dressing or even summer occasions, it’s yacht girl summer approved too.
If you haven’t come across the Tove Lauryn dress before, and if that’s the case I can guarantee you’ve probably spotted it on your evening scroll without taking in the details, let me break down for you. First launched in 2023, the strapless style features an artfully pleated bust which gives the dress an ultra feminine feel alongside the flattering figure-hugging bodice. It then falls into a midi length skirt which, thanks to the slightly dropped waist and delicate draping, gives off a more relaxed energy. The result? An ultra chic dress that can work for everywhere from days out in the city to drinks on the beach. I’ve even seen it re-worked as workwear through a clever use of layering.
