You may not have realised it due to the back-to-back heatwaves we’ve experienced, but we’re fast approaching the end of the summer. And with this comes the (very sad) realisation that I’ll soon be packing away my linen trousers, basket bags and, most devastatingly to me, lightweight dresses. So, with that at the top of mind, I’m determined to get the absolute most out of dress season before the temperatures drop in August. Of course, this means I’ve been on the hunt for some newer styles to add into my outfit rotations, and after spotting a particular high-street find on the forever-elegant Pippa Middleton, I think I’ve found the perfect one. And I was shocked to realise that it was the same style I missed out on last summer. Enter Reformation’s Naira Dress.

Spotted at Wimbledon wearing the red-and-white floral iteration with white court heels, a raffia hat and clutch, Pippa Middleton showed how simple Reformation’s Naira dress is to style for formal occasions. But rest assured that it can just as easily be styled with a pair of minimal trainers and a shoulder bag for more casual days out. Me personally? I’ll be wearing mine with a pair of suede loafers and a leather tote as an easy throw-on office outfit on those days I don’t know what to wear. With its subtle puff sleeves, deep V-neckline and maxi length, it strikes the perfect balance between ease and elegance.

Last year, it was the white-and-black polka dot iteration that took social media by storm, and although it sold out fast, summer 2026’s selection has five no-less-chic patterns to choose from. And trust me when I say—it’s selling fast.
