DOROTHY PERKINS Orange Animal Short Sleeve Jersey Midi Dress 10

This midi dress is the kind of piece that earns its place in your wardrobe season after season. The v neckline and flared skirt strike a balance between modest and polished, making it an ideal choice for occasions where you want to look put together without overdoing it. Wear it to a summer wedding or garden party with strappy heeled sandals and a woven clutch bag for a refined, occasion ready look. For a baby shower or brunch with friends, keep things relaxed by pairing it with flat sandals - just as the model has styled it here - and a pair of delicate drop earrings. The stretch jersey fabric ensures all-day comfort, so you can move from ceremony to celebration without a second thought. Layer a tailored blazer over the top as the evening cools down, and you have an effortlessly versatile outfit that works across a whole host of warm weather events.
