While we can all pretend to have our own individual sense of style - and many of us do, on occasion - we all come back to the floaty (often floral) dress every. Single. Summer.
There is something impossibly alluring and irresistible about that care-free, slip-on number that makes the age-old 'day-to-night' infinitely easier.
Work in a corporate office? Wear it with some court shoes and swap them for a sassy sandal for drinks with friends later on.
Work somewhere a little more relaxed? A white trainer will do the job, before you change into a little ankle boot for a summer evening festival.
The sartorial opportunities of a little floaty dress are endless, but we'd be lying if we said it wasn't the comfort and one-hit-wonder nature (no one likes 'curating a look' in 35°C) that sees us reaching for yet another every other morning.
So which ones are proving the most popular this summer? We caught up with Topshop to discover their bestselling dresses this month, and while they're no doubt known for having a smorgasbord of sexy 'OUT out' pieces, it's their floaty day dresses that take up all five top spots.
1. The Floral Ruffle Midi, £49, Topshop
5. The Satin Pleat Shirt Dress, £39, Topshop
"Dresses are a key focus for us as business and we’ve been creating new pieces in a variety of different prints, fabrics and styles", revealed Anthony Cuthbertson, Topshop's Global Design Director.
"Floral dresses in particular have been selling out fast - in fact they're so popular that they are searched for over 200 times a day online."
So how many of the top five have you got? Or, rather, how many floaty summer dresses have you got altogether? Possibly time to start streamlining that wardrobe...?
