12 summer dresses that won't cost you (that) much to look on point

It’s not getting any colder any time soon, only more humid and sunnier. So it’s always a good time to get your summer frock-game sorted (after all, how often do you complain you’ve got nothing to wear?).

Whether it’s a floaty beach dress, a dinner-appropriate number or something fancier, the perfect summer dress should be figure-flattering and breezy enough for the hottest day.

This summer, florals and stripes are in and go for frills and ruffled hems for an extra feminine look. 

These are the silhouettes to go for to look on-trend and most selections, save for one, are relatively affordable so you won't hurt your wallet (that much) in your quest to get a wardrobe update. 

Scroll through the gallery for 12 breezy go-everywhere dresses.
