Spring has sprung and it’s time to celebrate with an alfresco activity. Whilst I’m partial to a long afternoon in a buzzing beer garden, my first booking of the season will be to my favourite brunch spot to enjoy some enjoy a serving of vitamin D alongside my pancakes.
Excited to indulge in my favourite weekend activity, you can bet that I already have a very clear vision of exactly what I’ll be wearing to my forthcoming brunch dates. Now that the spring sun shining down, I’ve noticed an uptick in interest in “brunch dresses” on Google Trends, so, below I’ve rounded up four of my favourite dress trends to see me through my booking.
During the selection process of this edit I made sure to prioritise comfortable silhouettes that will see you through the course of a long brunch with loved ones. Prioritising voluminous silhouettes, breathable fabrics and new-season trends, read on to discover the best brunch dresses to style this season.
