I Live In Dresses – This Is The Chic Style I'm Wearing All Summer

I Live In Dresses – This Is The Chic Style I'm Wearing All Summer

Graziadaily5 days ago
It seems as though we're having a maximalist summer. With quiet luxury brushed under the carpet for the warm-weather months, at least, more-is-more trends – from 'Sardine Girl Summer' to standout seashells – are taking centre stage. And when it comes to prints, you've most likely noticed you can't go 2 minutes on TikTok or Instagram, attend a wedding or even have a day in the office without seeing spots. While the likes of Hailey Bieber are backing dotty capri pants, there's a more wearable trend that practically any of us can wear: polka dot dresses. The retro trend has made a huge comeback, and with searches for dresses in this timeless print being up by 2640% (according to Mediavision) since the start of the year, it seems as though dotted dresses are sticking around for the duration.
While we've already told you about the black and white & Other Stories polka dot puff-sleeve mini dress we've seen on so many fashion insiders, there's a new style in opposing colours that we're seeing a lot of, and it's all thanks to French label Sézane. Creating a white and black linen-mix mini in the key print for 2025 was a clever move, but creating one that has multiple styling opportunities is genius. Below, content creator @maggie_mccormack shows how the A-line dress looks worn with the scarf tied around the neck as a halterneck. But, with the scarf detail being removable, it's more versatile than you may originally think.
Sézane Rosabella Dress
The dress that needs no further introductions – enter: The Sezané polka dot mini dress that's already proving to be the style of the season. The cut, the neckline detail and the light linen material are all part of what makes it a best-seller for summer.

French fashion insider @morganewaquez got creative, removing the scarf detail and draping across the neck to tick off the spring/summer look of the season. Dresses with scarves are a wedding guest favourite, but we love to see it worn as part of a holiday-ready outfit with sunnies, chunk flip flops and a beaded bag. A monochromatic look can do no wrong in our eyes.

And if you want to get more bang for your buck from these £165 Sézane dress, you could also remove the scarf and wear it as a simple bandeau. One dress, three ways to wear – of course this summer winner is already selling out fast so you'll have to be quick to get yourself one. Prefer longer lengths? There's also a black and white midi version and a brown and white maxi style you may also want to add to your wish list. Along with our edit of the other best Sézane dress styles this summer has to offer, it's time to get the French girl look we all admire.
Sézane Rosie Dress
If you're sold by the print of the polka dot Rosabella mini but prefer a midi length, you'll want to meet Rosie. Longline and straight-cut, this sleek spotty dress with side split and comfy shirred back detailing is one not to miss.
Sézane Welissa Dress
If polka dots aren't your vibe, you can always rely on classic leopard print to liven up your warm-weather dress collection. The square neckline with crossover straps at the back makes it 360-degree perfection.
Sézane Pearline Dress
Firstly, yes you can wear a black dress in summer. This Broderie anglaise version with its tie-front and scalloped-hem detail will easily be your plus one to brunch plans, dinner dates and after-work drinks.
Sézane Clotilde Dress
Here to romanticise the timeless white shirt dress, the ruffle collar and hemline is giving that Parisian boho vibe to an otherwise simple dress. No doubt you'll want to style this with knee-high boots and a suede jacket come autumn, too.
Sézane Dorothe Dress
How good would this checked dress with subtle floral print look down the streets of a European city break? Complete with ballet flats and an oversized straw bag, of course. Perfection.
Sézane Eliora Dress
If you have a beach location wedding to attend, or you're just planning upcoming holiday outfits then you'll want to pack this Sézane hot pink mini. The silk fabric and golden hardware elevates the one-shoulder style so it's ready for any fancy plans.
Sézane Fiorella Dress
Summer sequins are having a moment, and this pretty pink dress is an easy way to try out the trend. Not only will it work across the year for so many occasions, 100% of profits from these dresses sold on the first Wednesday of every month will go to Demain (the organisation supporting breast cancer survivors).
Sézane Giuseppe Dress
We couldn't complete our guide to the best Sézane summer dresses without, you guessed it, another polka dot style. Brown and white spots will always remind us of that Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman dress, and we love this fresh take with spaghetti straps and floaty maxi length.

Kelly Osbourne shares sweet 'best ever' moment with dad Ozzy days after death

Kelly Osbourne continues to mourn the death of her father, Ozzy Osbourne, and took to social media to share a sweet moment between the pair that was labelled "one of the best Ozzy moments ever' As the world comes to terms with the tragic death of Ozzy Osbourne, his daughter Kelly Osbourne has shared one of her favourite moments with her iconic dad. In an Instagram upload, the 40-year-old shows off the father and daughter duo enjoying a touching moment in a post labelled: "One of the best Ozzy moments ever!" ‌ The clip was reshared on Kelly's Instagram Stories and showed the family members enjoying a road trip together. In the upload, which came from realityTV show Jack & Ozzy's World Detour, Kelly takes to the driver's seat of the huge campervan. ‌ As Ozzy enters and sits in the passenger seat, wearing his usual dark attire, Kelly tells him she has a "song in my head and I'm going to have to play it for you". The Prince of Darkness appears intrigued as his daughter sets up the song. ‌ While Ozzy is strapping himself in for the ride, George Ezra's tune Paradise begins playing over the vehicle's speakers. Kelly begins singing along as her dad listens intently. After a short while it appears as though the tune has caught the Black Sabbath man's attention as he begins to dance and bounce in his seat. Beaming a sweet smile in Kelly's direction as she continues to sing the pair are then seen in a cute moment as they both dance together on the journey, copying each other's hand movements. ‌ The clip ends with Kelly heard telling her dad she loves him. "I love you more," he sweetly responds. Ozzy died earlier in the week aged 76 after a battle with Parkinson's disease. Days after his death was announced, Kelly broke her social media silence with a heartbreaking comment. ‌ In her upload, she described the rock legend as "the best friend I ever had". The father and daughter were inseparable, with Kelly staying by her father's side during his final days. Just two days before his death, she shared a heartwarming video of the musician and his grandson - her young son - at the breakfast table. Kelly wrote on Instagram: "I feel so unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had." The reference is a line from his hit tune Changes. In 2003, Kelly and Ozzy re-recorded the track together. The song was co-written by Ozzy with his bandmates and was first released by Black Sabbath in 1972. ‌ Kelly's version with her dad revised the lyrics to reflect her bond with her dad. The song was a No. 1 hit in the U.K., and they became just the second father-daughter pair to top the charts, after Frank and Nancy Sinatra in 1967. A source shared with People about Ozzy's last moments. They said: "Ozzy's final days were spent in England, surrounded by family, music and in the place he called home. He was in peace."
