The season of the maxi dress is officially upon us. Light enough for the summer heat whilst covering up a multitude of sins (i.e. sunburnt legs – we’ve all been there), the boho item is a must-have piece for easy seasonal dressing.

We’ve picked out this vibrant, kimono-style gown from Issa, which is a more formal interpretation of the trend. In a romantic take on spring/summer’s Americana theme, the silk-chiffon dress features white and grey stars on a red background and plunges at the neck for a stunning evening look.

Keep accessories to a minimum and let this bright and beautiful dress do all the talking.

£620 / $725 from Net-a-Porter.
