When it comes to summer fashion, it’s all about combining practical picks with trending styles, and a crochet dress manages to check all the boxes . It’s lightweight and airy enough to keep you cool, whilst still giving you a chic, boho-inspired look that can be worn everywhere from the beach to your favourite festival with just a few styling tweaks. Stripes are another major trend this summer, and this V by Very X Tara Maynard Stripe Pointelle Mini Crochet Dress, £35 here , manages to tick off every single box.

The dress comes from Very’s collaboration with influencer Tara Mayanard, which is packed full of colourful and chic summer-ready buys, including brightly coloured co-ords and bold prints to tailored neutrals and wardrobe staples like linen trousers. The Pointelle Crochet Dress is a chic way of wearing the summer-ready trend, and has a 60s inspired silhouette, with a knee-length fit and long flared sleeves. Rather than a skin-tight, bodycon fit, the dress has a relaxed, slouchy style that skims over your figure whilst still showing off your shape.



You can stick with the oversized look for a low-key beachside look, or accessorise with a statement waistbelt to create a more defined silhouette that’s perfect for heading to the bar. The dress has a timeless striped pattern and an open-weave pointelle style knit, and it’s worth noting that the dress is unlined , so you can choose how to style it. It looks fab worn over a colourful bikini at the beach or poolside;.
