As well as keeping up to date with the key looks and must-have items, at womandhome.com, we like to keep an eye on the smaller micro trends emerging on the high street too, and one of those is the 2-in-1 dress, which seems to be everywhere right now.

As the name suggests, a 2-in-1 frock is designed cleverly to look like a top and skirt but is actually just one piece, so you can create a full ensemble with minimal effort. It’s a savvy idea and means you can wear a top and skirt aesthetic without the hassle of tucking in, readjusting or worrying about your waistband riding up, so it’s no surprise that this style of dress has quickly gained popularity, and there are plenty of designs available right now to suit all kinds of plans and any summer capsule wardrobe.

Whether you’re on the hunt for an easy and comfy combination for the weekend or looking for something polished and pretty for a wedding, you’ll find some of the very best hybrid styles below.
