White mini dresses

A white mini dress carries a certain occasion energy. White is crisp, fresh and impossible to miss, which is exactly why it's the shade you reach for when the day is about you, hen dos, birthdays, graduations, or your own low-key wedding. It's also a summer staple, cool and easy when the weather turns. From delicate lace to a bit of sequin sparkle, there's a white mini for a celebration and a lazy Saturday alike. Sizes 4 to 20, free UK delivery over £135.

Made for your own celebrations

White has a way of putting you at the centre, so it's the natural pick when the occasion is yours. As a bride, a white mini suits a registry office ceremony, a beach wedding or an elopement, all the ease of a mini with a clearly bridal feel. For the lead-up, a white mini is practically the hen do uniform, and it works just as well for a bridal shower or an engagement do. Beyond weddings, white is a favourite for a 21st, a graduation or a milestone birthday, when you want to look fresh and celebratory. Keep it clean: barely-there nude sandals, a small bag and a piece of delicate jewellery, nothing more.

Lace, linen, or a little sparkle

The fabric decides the mood. A linen or cotton white mini is fresh and breezy for summer, a holiday or a beach day, while satin and sequin lean party and evening. For evening, a corset, strapless or halter style shows a bit of skin, while a long sleeve or sleeved mini works for a cooler night or a more covered bridal look. Prefer contrast? A black-and-white mini is crisp and graphic, and easier to keep looking fresh than pure white.
