We’re officially in spring – hoorah! And with that we’re starting to say goodbye to our trusty jumpers and joggers that formed a big part of our winter lockdown wardrobes – because frankly, we can’t wait to slip into something a little lighter and brighter.
Providing exactly that is Next’s new-in section, which is bursting full of gorgeous floral dresses, aka the perfect antidote to months of drab WFH outfits.
Now, thanks to The Devil Wears Prada‘s Miranda Priestly, we know florals for spring aren’t exactly groundbreaking. But they just work – spring flowers are bursting out of the ground and we want them all over our outfits, too.
It’s a versatile print – from big graphic blooms to tiny ditsy flowers, muted tones to bold colourful iterations – that works across a variety of dress styles, including shirt dresses, floaty dresses and tiered dresses in midi and mini lengths.
Essentially, there’s a floral dress out there to suit everyone – and right now you’ll likely find your new fave at Next. Here’s our top picks of Next floral dresses, which you can buy online now at next.co.uk.
8 Next floral dresses perfect for spring:

Sweetheart Neckline Midi Dress, £36, Next
Pale pink with a sweetheart neckline and shirred detailing on the bodice, this one is perfect for spring.

V-Neck Belted Dress, £38, Next
The dark green background and longer length sleeves mean this dress will look good now and right through to autumn, too.

A ditsy print on a maxi length dress can be a lot, but the muted colour palette strikes the right balance.

The busy style of this floral print is reminding us of hundreds and thousands (which then has us dreaming of ice creams…).

Button Shirt Dress, £26, Next
The mini dress is making a comeback and this tea dress with soft puff sleeves is a great re-entry to the shorter dress length.

Button Front Midi Dress, £28, Next
A colourful confetti-style floral – ideal for a seaside break.

V-Neck Belted Dress, £38, Next
This bright pink lightweight dress comes with a brown leather belt to cinch it in.

Frilled hems bring an extra feminine touch to this floral dress.
