Florals are a trend that reappear every year without fail. Like nautical navy and white, or the little black dress, there’s a variation of floral print that suits every body shape and budget. Petite ladies should opt for smaller print which won’t overwhelm their figure – people should see the woman first, then the dress. Likewise, it’s better if curvy women stick to medium or larger print as it’s most flattering. However, no matter what your shape, it’s worthwhile experimenting with florals, especially when it comes to mixing two different prints on top and bottom. Just remember that the overall colour palette should be the same. Clashing prints are much harder to wear, but prints that complement each other can be very flattering. It’s also a great way to get more wear out of floral dresses. Team them up with a skirt or wear them as a top.
