This spring, floral prints are on trend and Oasis is leading the pack with their new 'Floral Frocks' collection, four exclusive dresses based on original vintage prints from the mid 20th century and designed with a modern contemporary feel.

The collection includes Lily Lane, a strapless summer frock with a sweetheart neckline in crisp cotton flaunting a bold yellow and green lily print, and the Poppy Parker Jones, a day dress that embraces volume and shape. Belted at the waist and printed with bold cardinal red poppies, this dress is fun and flirtatious. With a net underskirt, this dress dips low on the back, embodying the spirit of the 1960s.

Rose Riley is a striking tulip dress in a lush print with rich cerise pink blossoms all over the cotton fabric and an oversized bow on the waist. Finally, Violet Valentine captures the feel of 1950's daywear in all its glory. The strappy sundress is adorned with sweet violets and soft floral prints. Gathered at the waist with a matching tie belt, the full pleated skirt falls just below the knee and, worn with layers of petticoats, creates an exaggerated hourglass figure.

The Floral Frocks collection are perfect for summer occasions and also includes a cute 50's style cotton knit cropped puff sleeve cardigan in matching green and red to complete the total look. This exclusive collection is available from Oasis now and is priced between €114 and €122.
