Floral frocks aren’t groundbreaking for spring, but designers are offering a wide range of takes on the tried-and-true print. From Erdem’s vintage-inspired green and yellow scheme to Mary Katranzou’s neon field of tulips, there’s something for everyone.
A unique take on the colorblock trend and graphic enough to completely escape the “sweetness” of most floral prints. (Mary Katrantzou silk-satin dress; $1,050)

A perfect summer day-dress with a print straight from the ’60s. (Erdem jersey dress; $925)
Even with the ruffled skirt, the winged motif on the bodice gives this dress toughness—like armor. (Roberto Cavalli silk-satin and silk-chiffon dress; $2,770)
