Summer dresses Hearts & Roses

Summer dresses are made from breathable fabrics such as linen, cotton, viscose and chiffon. A linen summer dress or a cotton summer dress is breathable and keeps you cool on warm days, while viscose drapes well for prints and chiffon is perfect for occasionwear. Broderie anglaise adds eyelet texture to lightweight cotton. If you're looking for natural fibres, choose linen or cotton – and help keep pre-loved dresses in circulation for longer. Many listings include the fabric, so use the Material filter to choose the weight that suits your summer.

Floral is the defining summer-dress print, alongside gingham, polka dot and pastel shades. White and black are the staple colours, while brights such as yellow, red, blue, pink and green fill out the palette. A floral summer dress reads as the season's classic, while a crisp white summer dress or a sharp black summer dress works from beach to evening. Filter listings by print or colour to find what you want faster. Narrow down used summer dresses by the shade or pattern you want – whether it's a tropical print for a beach holiday or a colour that suits a special event.
