Dress season is finally back in full swing. And you know what that means: more colours, more prints, more cuts and most of all, a lot of cool spring dresses. Our new collection 'Sunkissed' has some sparkling cocktail dresses in store for you. Do you always have a signature drink in your hand at a party? Find out which dress is the perfect match. Or vice versa, of course!
Boho Mojito
Lover of casual chic? This green maxi dress has a solid bohemian touch, which means you can wear it to a variety of occasions: from a sunny brunch to a night out with friends. Not only do the dress and the cocktail share the same colour palette, they are also both all-round: perfect for both a sunny beach bar and a chic restaurant.

Casual Cosmopolitan
While it's hard to call a Cosmopolitan casual - it's not Carrie Bradshaw's favourite cocktail from Sex and the City for nothing - it's a perfect match for our pink maxi dress. Throw on a pair of gold sandals and you're ready for a laid-back christening or birthday party in the garden or on the beach. La vie en rose? A votre santé, tchin tchin!

Miss Margarita
The margarita is not for the faint-hearted, and neither is our white cocktail dress. The halter top with a cross at the back shows off a bit of bare skin, but is very classy at the same time. The subtle relief print gives that extra touch of spice, just like that shot of tequila in your margarita. Bottoms up!

Lady Violet
Purple, lavender or lilac: the range of shades of purple is almost endless. Good news: they are all very on-trend this season. Just like butterfly sleeves. Two trumps that this cheerful wrap dress has to offer.
