I Love Dresses and Think These 9 Labels Are Worth Spending a Little Extra On

@francescasaffariStyle Notes: There's a reason so many influencers flock to Rixo come wedding season. The London label's designs are bold without being scene-stealing, ensuring the attention remains fully on the bride. That being said, you can expect a fair few compliments when you rock up in a Rixo number...

@so.candiceStyle Notes: Ganni is quintessentially Scandinavian, blending confident design with splashes of fun. The result is a colourful yet wearable selection of seersucker, silk and structured cotton dresses that can be styled for all manner of occasions (including the weekly shop).
I'd pick out either the blue or green and style this with matching accessories.
A classic Ganni design that will no doubt sell out quick.

@styleidealistStyle Notes: If you're lucky enough to have been invited to a black tie event, you'll be sure to make an entrance in an Aje dress. Based in sunny Australia, the brand's bold designs promise a good time. Who could stay in a bad mood while enveloped in bright pink ruffles?
Newsflash: Barbie pink is sticking around for 2023.
This dramatic dress is your way into the train trend.
Painterly prints always make me think of the Mediterranean.

@chrissyfordStyle Notes: Spending any amount of time on Reformation's website is dangerous, because your chances of spotting something you *need* are alarmingly high. The LA label has more than just its sustainable credentials to brag about—it's also one of the more inclusive dress brands around, creating flattering designs in UK sizes 4-28.

@lizzyhadfieldStyle Notes: Raey makes more than just dresses—you might also have spent the last four months lusting after its longline coats—but this is where the label's streamlined approach to design really shines. Expect pared-back pieces with interesting necklines, crafted from premium materials like silk and linen.
This would look so chic paired with a camel trench coat and clogs.
I love how Raey has styled this slinky dress more on the casual side.
If I didn't know this was Ghost, I'd think it had a much higher price tag.

@lucywilliams02Style Notes: It's only March, but Dôen's easy, breezy dresses have me dreaming of summers abroad. The free-spirited silhouettes feature bohemian prints, artful embroidery and cottagecore colour palettes, and yes, they're as beautiful as they sound.
The intricate details on this dress make it worth every penny.
I'm into the idea of wearing this one with cowboy boots and a neck scarf.

@katherine_ormerodStyle Notes: Central Saint Martins graduate Rejina Pyo founded her eponymous label in 2014, and it quickly became a celeb favourite. Her signature puff-sleeved dresses are impeccably constructed; perfect for formal soirées where you want to stand out.
That blurred floral print is very on-trend this season.

@oliviamarcusStyle Notes: Minimalists, look away— Zimmermann celebrates all things pink, frilly and floral, so if you have an affinity for feminine style, you've met your match. Keep your romantic frock as the focus and pair it with simple accessories.
When you want to go all-out, reach for this frilly number.
