It's time to trade in your parka.&nbsp;

As we shed our <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/a-guide-to-finding-the-perfect-winter-coat-lisa-tzuyu-style" target="_blank" rel="noopener">winter layers</a> in favor of linen and chiffon, brighter days are finally upon us&mdash; and we&rsquo;re ready to dress like it. From&nbsp;&lsquo;60s drop waists and &lsquo;70s plunges to slinky <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/90s-nostalgia-the-schoolgirl-chic-celebrity-style-trend-at-paris-fashion-week" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&lsquo;90s</a> slips, this season&rsquo;s dresses are full of <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/mina-le-on-vintage-clothing-and-the-importance-of-sustainability-in-fashion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vintage</a> references. Since <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/our-favourite-streetstyle-looks-from-paris-fashion-week" target="_blank" rel="noopener">street style</a> last fashion month ran the gamut in both silhouette and palette, keep your eye out for a spectrum of <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/colours-runway-fashion-trends-spring-summer-2023-photo-look" target="_blank" rel="noopener">colour</a>. Dress trends include equal parts soft pastels, bright shades, and as we spotted all along the <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/academy-awards-2023-oscars-red-carpet-celebrity-looks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oscars</a> champagne carpet: white. Spring/Summer 2023 collections showed rather on-the-nose details like lace and floral embellishment, but period fashion remixes gave them a contemporary spin.
Despite the excitement of novel trends, a <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/best-spring-2023-dress-trends-runway-style-fashion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spring</a> dress should ultimately be effortless, and given the fluctuating hot-cold weather, easily layered. Whether you prefer a flowing maxi or an itty bitty micro mini, your new favorite spring dress is awaiting ahead.

Yes, groundbreaking we know. Although florals in spring are nothing new, the unique pointed hem on this <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/staud-models-strut-their-stuff-fall-2019" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Staud</a>&nbsp;minidress provides an avant-garde touch on a familiar print.
