On our w eb travels yesterday, we discovered the jersey, maxi dress being touted as a must have item for spring/summer 10. Asos have listed it in their ‘if you buy only 5 things’ list. This is not the floaty, colourful, hippychick style maxi we know and love – it’s clingier and comes in mostly in grungier shades of grey and black. The look is simple and summery, mostly accessorised with a pair of gladiators and a bangle.

We have to agree this seens to be a clever and versatile little number, especially when it comes to holiday packing. If you’re feeling self conscious about the clinginess, a denim shirt by day or long line blazer by night will take care of that.

We can see Miranda Kerr above trying the look with a cropped denim jacket and a with a blazer and Topshop have put together a 3 ways to wear the jersey maxi dress for us – make it boho with scarves and jewellery, make it sporty with a sweat top and back pack or make it cute with a little tie top and pendant. Topshops strappy, jersey, maxi is just £18, so it’s an inexpensive way to be on trend too! Click the images for more details.
