Autumn fashion trends: Dark floral dresses set to be big for 2019 – goodhousekeeping.com

While we’re not quite ready to say goodbye to summer *just* yet, we are excited about all the new season fashion that’s already started to hit the high street.

There’s one print in particular that is popping up everywhere right now, ideal for seeing you through the end of the summer and into the colder months.

It seems it might be time to pack away your favourite pink and white floral dresses and instead, add some dark florals to your wardrobe.

An edgy twist on classic summer florals, this trend is set to be everywhere in the new season and it’s so easy to style…

“Florals were a huge trend over summer and they aren’t going anywhere for autumn/winter – but next season, they’re set to be bigger, bolder and richer,” Good Housekeeping’s Fashion Editor, Gabriella Michella says.

“Think a touch of Gothic or a dash of Renaissance with blooms in wine reds, deep greens and vibrant purples.

“The hero piece for this trend is the new dark floral maxi or midi; you can easily dress it up or down.”

That’s right, your dark floral frock really can work for almost any occasion. We’ll be enjoying the last of the nice weather by wearing ours with heeled sandals or white trainers, before switching to boots when autumn arrives.

Here are a few of our favourite dark floral dresses on the high street right now.

What’s more, it’s certainly worth the investment, as a dark floral dress is much more likely to take you from season to season than your light-coloured frocks.

As the autumn ranges hit stores, it’s not just dresses that are set to be covered in the trendy print. We’ve already spotted a few other pieces featuring dark floral prints that we’re tempted to snap up now in prep for our autumn wardrobe.
