The return of floral dresses is far from predictable. Despite forecasts of their decline, thank goodness they’ve resurged with a twist.
This season, the catwalks showcased a fresh take on florals for spring. Burberry flaunted daisies dancing across a sporty velvet dress, while Erden adorned off-the-shoulder sleeves and skirts with blue-tinged roses, injecting an offbeat vibe that defies the conventional “trad wife” aesthetic.

On the bustling high street, abstract florals steal the spotlight. Designers are boldly reimagining classic floral patterns with distorted, graphic, and silhouetted designs. Another noteworthy trend is the shift towards single stem motifs, departing from traditional wallpaper-like designs. Orchids, in particular, emerge as the star of the show. Louise Ballou’s slim maxi dress, for instance, features spiraled orchid petals in vivid hot pink, cascading from neckline to ankle.

For those content with their existing floral wardrobe, there are endless styling possibilities. At Paris Fashion Week, we witnessed the fusion of poppy print dresses with tights and Mary Janes. A similar effect can be achieved with black ankle socks and brogues, weather permitting. Alternatively, for an extra edge, try pairing your blossoms with unexpected accessories like a bucket hat, a bomber jacket, or a studded belt. Regardless of your personal style, floral dresses are flourishing in a myriad of innovative and captivating ways.
