It may have been a few seasons since gingham had its moment in the sun, but this summer it’s well and truly stealing the spotlight, and is seen everywhere on dresses, skirts, trousers and accessories. With many options out there, we’re loving pastel-toned takes on the print, with this & Other Stories linen midi wrap dress in yellow gingham catching our eye. For a cheaper alternative, snap up this ZARA gingham dress (currently on sale!), or we love the relaxed shape of Mango’s pastel pink offering. Not into pastels? You can still tap into the trend and go classic monochrome with this gingham button-front midi dress from J. Crew.

Animal print has long been a favourite of ours, and the print is proving to be continuously popular this season. Whether you’re enjoying a weekend away, heading to the beach or attempting to stay cool in the city, this Rafa Zebra Print Midi Dress by Faithful The Brand is top of our wish list. We also love this Reformation Toulouse Dress which can be dressed up or down and take you from day to night, or opt for H&M’s casual zebra print button-front dress for a way to tap into the look.

Another print that’s having a serious moment this summer is floral. While not exactly ground breaking, florals for 2019 are going bright and bold, with our top pick being this printed midi dress from ZARA. Though if you’re looking for a more muted take on florals, we’ve also been seeing prairie-style dresses everywhere, so for a subtle take on the print, go for this New Look button through midi prairie dress in white floral print. More muted tones can be found in Mango’s floral print dress. Available in both sky blue and yellow, it’s sure to have you covered for any occasion this summer.

If you’re into a slightly retro style, look no further than polka dots. Joining the array of prints on offer this summer, dots are being seen everywhere from high street to high end, and our pick of the bunch is Faithful The Brand’s Billie Midi Dress in green polka dot. With a standout colour, v-neck and ruffle hem, we’re also dreaming of wearing ZARA’s Ruffled Polka Dot Dress for seasons to come. And though we love the trend for coloured prints, you can count on Topshop to offer a monochrome alternative with its Black And White Starlight Spot Smock Dress.

For a perfect summertime option, feminine ditsy prints are always a go to. Easy to throw on whatever the occasion, we love the bohemian vibes of Faithful The Brand’s Matilda High/Low Peasant Dress, and we can imagine wearing Lost + Wander’s relaxed Fields Ruffle Midi Dress to summer garden parties with simple sandals. Though for more budget friendly alternatives we’re counting on this Reclaimed Vintage inspired square neck midi dress and H&M’s floral calf-length dress to tick all the boxes. For a pop of colour, we also like ASOS DESIGN’s button through maxi tea dress.
