How to Style Our Bestselling Gingham Dress

It was last summer that we first set our eyes on the new era of gingham, with the high street and – of course – our Instagram feeds offering a fresh perspective on the perennial print. Fast-forward to SS18 and the tablecloth-check print is still dominating the style radar, eschewing its folksy feel for a considerably cooler aesthetic. Want to try the trend? Here, we explore how to wear gingham with our bestselling dress of the summer, proving that this season’s ‘it’ print is as versatile as it is fashion-forward.

Once synonymous with school uniforms, picnic blankets and Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, gingham has most certainly stepped it up a gear – and these bloggers know it. Giving the print their own cool spin, both Ella (left) and Natasha (right) have shown us that this button-up mdi can work in any warm-weather rotation, whether on holiday or running errands on home ground.

A Summer’s Day

Gingham prints are a fresh alternative to florals, exuding classic femininity in a very modern way. Embrace it in full with statement-making checks in red and white, paring back the colour palette with natural, textured accessories.

Talk of the Town

Hesitant about wearing gingham or want to play down its prairie-girl persona? Monochrome checks offer a slightly safer – but by no means less stylish – take on the gingham trend, making them easier than ever to wear. Style with white sneakers, adding a punch with a statement red bag.
