Polka Dots have always been around and chances are that you will already have several items in your wardrobe with a polka dot print. I had a look and managed to find three pieces, all navy blue with small white polka dots – seems it’s the safe way to do dots, but I digress.
This timeless print saw a comeback last year on the catwalks with several designers showcasing polka dots for AW17 and again for SS18 with Rodarte and Carolina Herrera showcasing two of my favourite looks.
If you are not quite sure about this whole look but want to give it a go pick a smaller dot size. Smaller dots are safer and more wearable. The bigger dots are much more on trend and styled correctly will look fabulous. If you are brave go big!
Whether you’re a fan or not the polka dot will feature quite prominently alongside the florals and stripes this Spring / Summer. I have done some research for you and linked a few of my favourite items below.
