Angelica Bell's coral evening dress is the elegant but comfortable choice for summer occasions
Her striking dress will have you event-ready in no time
Angelica Bell dazzled in the sunshine as she stepped out for the TRIC Awards last night. The TV presenter looked resplendent in a coral-peach dress that looked elegant and cool in the warm June weather. The vintage-inspired design featured full, billowy sleeves and a floaty maxi skirt that shielded the star from direct sun but remained breezy.
Featuring ruffled shoulders, a delicate button front, flattering V-neckline and defined waistline, the elegant evening dress exuded summer occasion style, and the pretty frock needed no accessorising, which undoubtedly kept Angelica that little bit cooler.
Angelica's Queens of Archive dress proved how timeless 70s silhouettes remain, and the elegant, floaty design could easily translate to one of the best summer wedding guest dresses of 2026. The bright colour ensured the star stood out, while the V-neck and button front helped to elongate her silhouette.
Queens of Archive has become quite the hit with the fashion and celebrity spot, regularly seen on the red carpet, the brand's timeless designs reference vintage inspiration and add a contemporary twist for classic buys you'll wear again and again.
With a similarly ruffled silhouette, tie neckline and directional colour, this sweet, silky dress is ideal for what to wear to a wedding this summer if you're still on the hunt. The blush pink hue taps into the fashion colour trends for 2026.
With a slightly more casual spin, this button through, floaty design features a defined waist thanks to a self-tie fabric belt. The wide V-neckline helps to balance out fuller hips and the fullness of the skirt, while the pintuck detail elongates the figure.
Slightly more tangerine in hue, this elegant maxi dress is ideal for an evening function in the coming months. The ruched, wrap and tie detailing through the silhouette will skim your middle, narrow your waist and help to elongate your figure.
For a much more laidback take on Angelica's look, this R. Vivimos dress is the perfect answer to what to wear in the heat. Easy and breezy, this throw-on-and-go design has a flattering, middle skimming A-line fit, and floaty sleeves that offer added coverage.
A shorter take on the style, I can't believe this dress is only £11. Full sleeves, ruffled neckline and warm-weather-ready floaty cut, this is the easy-breezy dress buy you can style with your best white trainers for a casual look, or swap to heels for a dinner date.
Angelica Bell is always on our fashion radar, as the TV presenter regularly looks super stylish at events and on her presenting duties. Her Queens of Archive dress is just the latest in a solid selection of elevated, easy to recreate looks that we've spotted, and it's a timeless aesthetic that you can turn to again and again.
By opting for a dress with a maxi skirt and billowy sleeves, Angelica gets some much needed sun coverage, but by opting for fuller shapes and A-line fits, she keeps her look breezy and more breathable too.
The colour is simply sensation, and while corals and salmons have had a bit of a bad rep over the years, they are very much back on the fashion radar and make for a sophisticated option for those who love rose and pinky hues.
