Gingham – your summer-go-to-print
When I think of gingham I think of the gorgeous Judy Garland wearing the iconic gingham pinafore dress as Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz with her bright red shoes.
Gingham is one of those prints that seem to work so well across the summer, along with florals and polka dots. This year the gingham trend is HUGE and the high street stores are brimming with dresses, skirts, shirts, shoes and bags sporting this classic print.
You will find the gingham dress in lots of different styles from universally flattering wrap dresses to smock-style, puff sleeves and mini style dresses. There is a gingham style dress for everyone. If you’re not keen on a dress why not opt for a sophisticated gingham skirt that can be suitable for work or play.
If you love a blazer, why not pick up a gingham-style one? Whether bright coloured, classic mono chrome or other, you will find your favourite brand stocking their own version right now.
Don’t be afraid of this print. The gingham dress is the easiest one to style, pairing effortlessly with a woven basket bag and your favourite summer footwear. Gingham works well with many colours such as pastels and if you love bright colours go for neon. If not a dress, go for a suit or a blouse or even a bag.
A timeless print that can be worn year after year.
