Summer is officially around the corner, and high street brands are unveiling new collections to breathe life back into our wardrobes.

Leading the charge is John Lewis. As expected, its latest collection is every bit as enticing as I had hoped, brimming with polished, sophisticated pieces spanning dresses, tailoring and accessories.

Alongside its in-house designs, John Lewis offers a selection of labels, including Reiss, Mint Velvet and Paige, cementing its status as a one-stop shop for effortless style.

This season, there’s a distinctly regal mood running through the range. In fact, it’s easy to imagine Catherine, Princess of Wales, stepping out in many of the looks – from the floral dress to the pleated midi skirt.

A standout green suit also caught my eye. The vibrant hue is one Kate has long favoured, and the universally flattering silhouette feels both modern and timeless.
