We love to look stylish all summer long - and in the midst of a heatwave it comes in handy to have easy-to-wear dresses that are unfussy and washable AND look great. Enter, the strapless summer dress!

Teamed with sandals or white trainers with this summer's must-have no-show socks, you'll look instantly stylish. Bandeau dresses are the easiest piece you'll have in your closet!

So what we've looked for are practical but super cute summer dresses to wear anywhere from the back garden to a sunny holiday. And what better choice for summer fashion than a bandeau dress – whether colour block, leopard print, floral or gingham – that’s easy to slip into, universally flattering and won’t break the bank!
