I know, I know: the style of the Parisienne is a cliché. But clichés don’t just happen. Plop down on a terrace in Le Marais and within five minutes you will have enough outfit inspiration for the rest of the summer. One woman is even better dressed than the other. What do you see remarkably often? A romantic one floral dress. And at Mango I spot a copy with a high French girl-content.
This new dress from Mango looks French
Who Jeanne Damas follows, know that a fitted floral dress should not be missing in any summer wardrobe. It is a signature of her fashion label Rouje, and the French brand Sézane also knows exactly how to make a romantic dress feel modern. And Mango? He participates. This new dress could easily have hung between the racks of a Parisian boutique.

Mango’s new midi dress is made from a supple viscose fabric and has a long, straight silhouette with a flattering V-neck. The lace details along the neckline and sleeves give the dress a subtle vintage feel, without being frumpy. Mango combines it with flat flip-flops, but you can just as easily wear slingbacks or a pair of elegant ballerinas underneath.
Why a black summer dress actually works
Bee summer dresses you might think of white, butter yellow or a bright color. Black feels less obvious, but is secretly one of the chicest choices you can make. It looks elegant, is practical on hot days (sweat spot-proof) and can be combined endlessly. No wonder the black summer dress returns every summer.
In fact, I would like this one floral dress from Mango even attract to one summer wedding. Thanks to the refined floral print, lace and feminine silhouette, it feels festive without it overdressed to be. There’s a good chance you’ll keep reaching for it all summer long – and well beyond.
