If you're searching for an effortless spring style, look no further than the tiered dress. With a flattering, airy silhouette and horizontal seams that add movement and volume, they're perfect for all body types. Not only that, but they're extremely versatile, and can be dressed both up or down for either casual occasions, like a picnic in the park, or more formal ones, such as a wedding guest look.

For those looking to add the staple to their wardrobe this season, there are *so* many ways to wear the tiered dress in a spring style. The breezy pieces (whether midi or maxi) look stunning with sandals or espadrilles, and pair perfectly with a straw bag for ultimate warm-weather vibes.

And, because we know UK temperatures can be a bit hit and miss during spring, it's good to know how to layer this kind of dress, too. If you're expecting some April showers, but are adamant about sporting the look, cropped denim jackets or blazers can help to balance out their voluminous shape.

One high street brand that consistently drops the most beautiful tiered dresses is Zara, and this new £36 chiffon offering in pastel pink is the only (imo) piece you need this spring. Complete with a round neck and thin adjustable straps, the dress also features elastic shirring on the chest, ruffles and a tonal inner lining. The whimsical style of the dress is perfect for those cottage core girlies, and is so on-brand for frolicking in a meadow, Wuthering Heights book in hand. *Cue Charli XCX's 'Chains of Love' on repeat*
