White is BIG for spring and summer: it’s versatile, luxe and looks good on everyone. Plus, since it’s technically a neutral, it goes with absolutely everything (just be careful of red wine spills).
Here’s how to wear it this season…
Ways to wear: spring whites

The dress-up-or-down white dress
The good news is that white is so versatile you can wear it absolutely anywhere, especially in spring and summer. We love this White Stripe Ribbed Tank Midi Dress, perfect for laidback sunny days with a pair of strappy sandals or trainers, and with an oversized tote bag. Add some sunnies and a hat, and you’re good to go. The stripes keep it casual, and the midi length makes it ready to wear anywhere.
For something that’s just as easy to wear, but gives a totally different vibe, this White Embroidered Tie Neck Smock Mini Dress has the perfect breezy warm-weather shape. Accessorise with a skinny belt and switch between styling it with heels or flats.
Nothing says summer like a white maxi dress. And this Blue Vanilla White Crochet Tiered Maxi is perfect for summer days out, holidays or beach trips. Add some sandals, a straw bag and a cute sun hat for sun-ready style.
The wear-anywhere white top
You need at least one white top or bodysuit in your wardrobe, whether it’s a classic T-shirt, body or a cami top. They’re perfect for layering, go with any colour and you can style them up or down. Pair this Petite High Neck Bodysuit with shorts or jeans, and add a cardi or blazer over the top.
If you’re feeling like trying a white top with a twist, a waistcoat like this Petite White Linen Blend Waistcoat paired with some linen trousers is a gorge look for spring and summer. Or you can quite literally go for a twist with this White Ribbed Twist Front Vest styled with a maxi skirt or some high waisted shorts and flats.
We love this White Ribbed V Neck Vest, too. It’s perfect for holidays, chilling or going for drinks after work. Wear with some ankle-grazer jeans or a mini skirt and slingbacks for a simple look that’s extra easy to dress up with the right accessories.
The classic white shirt dress
Every capsule wardrobe edit says you need a classic white shirt in your wardrobe, and we totally agree. But they don’t need to be boring or basic. Instead of going for a straightforward shirt, try a shirt dress. You can tuck it in to get the look of a shirt, wear it as a dress or wear it over your outfit as a layering piece. The White Poplin Long Sleeve Oversized Mini Shirt Dress is perfect to get the look, whether you’re going to work, shopping or for food.
You can also play around with texture and fabric to get a warm-weather-ready layered look. This Off White Cotton Broderie Front Shirt works just as well over jeans and a vest top as it does over a dress or as a standalone piece. You can even wear it as a beach cover up.
The minimalist white blazer
Clean, crisp and goes with absolutely everything – what’s not to love about a white blazer? Whether you go for something cropped, longline, fitted or oversized, there’s nothing better than a blazer for adding a luxe feel to the simplest outfit. And they go with absolutely everything, from jeans and trousers right through to dresses and workwear.
We love this White Textured Jersey Blazer to add some simplicity and style into your spring and summer outfits. Roll up the sleeves a little and pair with some straight leg jeans, a vest and ballet pumps for a look you’ll absolutely love.
For instant it-girl energy, try the White Pinstripe Single Button Blazer - the pinstripes make it perfect for work, too.
The effortless white trousers
Nothing says quiet luxury quite like a pair of tailored white trousers. These White Wide Leg Trousers are the ideal summer style, with a comfy elastic waistband and swooshy wide leg. Wear them with a simple bandeau and a layered shirt or a denim jacket for a relaxed but dressy vibe. We love.
If you’re not feeling a wide leg, these Off White High Waist Tapered Cotton Trousers are super flattering on everyone, and they’re a little bit easier to dress down. Wear with trainers and a tee or sweatshirt for that laidback look.
White jeans are also *made* for summer. Our White Waist Enhance Quinn Bootcut Jeans are made from comfy, high-stretch denim that’s nice and light for the warmer weather. They’re a slim fit bootcut that work with absolutely everything in your wardrobe, whether you want to wear them with a nice top, a hoodie or something in between.
