These are the 10 best dresses you should buy for summer, all under £100

Occasional spring showers aside, warmer weather is coming. With sunshine and highs of 23 degrees predicted for next week, it’s looking a lot like dress weather.

A good summer dress is one to keep a constant eye out for. Brands such as M&S offer an excellent range and regular drops that leave us drooling, often resulting in styles selling out in mere days. And you don’t want to let your dream dress pass you by.

We’ve selected these dresses based on their versatility. Modern details, such as drop waists and ruching, are in the mix alongside classics like shirtdresses. These summery prints and styles can be incorporated in your wardrobe now for spring and worn well into September. We also know the importance of a good bargain and with some as affordable as £36, these dresses the ultimate pick-me-ups just in time for payday.

The key is finding styles and prints that can work layered underneath a cardigan or white shirt now and then be worn on their own come summer or for a holiday abroad. Just switch your boots or trainers for sandals once the weather’s warm enough.

Brands such as Boden and M&S have plenty of well-made lightweight linen and cotton dresses on offer at reasonable price to help get you into the summer mood. Whether you’re looking for a burst of bold colour or a simple white style, this edit has a dress for everyone.
