And relax: These are the roomy summer dresses we'll be wearing this year
Flowing comfortable dresses are here to stay.
Restrictions may be loosening but our love affair with comfy clothing remains the same. As all things slouchy and supersized retain their rightful place in the post-lockdown fashion hierarchy, the roomy gúna amplifies its sovereign status. It would appear when it comes to frocks, bigger is, indeed, better. If that’s the case, best make room for one of these beauties in your closet.

: Create a low-key look with high-tops or chunky trainers. Add a straw bag for a twist.
: Kemi Telford is a Nigerian designer whose eponymous line of dresses and skirts is quickly winning favour with fashion insiders. Fall for her real wax print frocks made from top-grade 100% cotton yarn. Wear now with flats and bare arms or later with a turtleneck and boots.
: Dilute puffy sleeves and frilly hems with a V-neck or look for empire or A-line styles that allow for a belt.
: Shirt dresses and bougie kaftans look great over skinny jeans and decorative slides.
