Vivid bold colour through to sorbet shades, bring mouth-watering style to any garden party this summer season. Jane Ramsay reports

'Michaela Louisa sets pulses racing this summer with a glamorous collection of short, figure hugging dresses and elegant long maxi dresses both styles available in sizzling summer colours from coral through to midnight blue and aqua green.'Hilary Haresign, Snooty Frox

'There are choices galore this summer. Tap into the sea life trend with pearl bracelets, metallic sandals and delicate shell earrings. Think pastel metallics, marine shades, beaded sparkles and head-to-toe prints. You can still get the look with a bold print but team it with chunky heels, neutral macs and bare legs – not quite such a scary prospect. Most of all just enjoy the bright colours.'Lucy Curtis, Sugarbird
