Summer is in the air! Fashionable classics, like shorts or Maxi skirts are already making you want to head into the warm season.

We know the trends for 2026.
The most beautiful floral dresses for summer 2026
In my opinion, every woman needs a floral dress in her wardrobe. Put on quickly, it simply puts you in a good mood and can be worn for everyday life, but also for the next garden party Wedding style. A versatile classic that gets a modern twist this year.
#1 Playful details: floral dresses with ruffles
We’re tired of minimalism and are opting for flounces and ruffles in floral dresses with eye-catching prints. There can be a lot! But we combine more reserved jewelry and shoes that let the dress speak for itself.
#2 Short & Sweet: Mini floral dress
Little women, be careful! This year, short dresses are trendy and we wear them with high boots or sandals. This lengthens your legs and makes you appear taller. The trend is for models with voluminous puffed sleeves or playful flounces, which form an exciting contrast to the short hem length.
#3 Maxi dreams: Flowing fabrics
We hardly feel more feminine than in a beautiful floral dress and in 2026 we will be relying on flowing fabrics such as silk, chiffon or viscose that gently sway with every step. To give the romantic character of the dress a modern edge, you can combine it with oversized leather jackets and boots on cooler days. A great break in style!
#4 Body-hugging: Tight-fitting floral dresses
Mesh or jersey hug the body like a second skin and are perfect for body-hugging floral dresses. Feel free to show what you have! An oversized blazer that is loosely draped over the shoulders goes perfectly with a body-hugging dress.
#5 3D applications: floral dresses with flowers
If prints alone are no longer enough for you, this trend will delight you: 3D flowers will be the absolute highlight of floral dresses in 2026. Instead of just being printed, the floral elements bloom three-dimensionally on the fabric. Particularly popular? Organza applications, opulent fabric flowers on the shoulder or delicate embroidery.
