Ghost's new summer dress collection is pretty epic

Introducing Ghost London's epic new summer dress collection, a capsule collection edited by Notting Hill-based model, photographer and editor Laura Bailey.

It features all the details you've come to know and love from the London label, but with a bit of a twist. Think eight vintage-inspired styles, adorned with ditsy and retro floral prints.

These include tea dresses in vintage poppy, wild garden and delicate rose prints which add a romantic feel to proceedings, as well as a more 90s-inspired bias-cut slip in a gorgeous buttercup-coloured satin that will be ideal once the rumoured heatwave finally kicks in.

Another hero piece includes the sailor-inspired Izzy dress, embellished with a white-ribbon trimmed collar, as well as the Lucy dress, a sleek bright white number.

Of her edit for Ghost, Laura says, ‘Ghost, for me, evokes an iconic British style and sensuality – easy, fluid shapes and modern romance. Bare-legged in the sun or layered up against the elements, Ghost dresses are timeless and beloved elements of my wardrobe, and my edit and campaign this season, from the classic buttercup satin slip to the navy Izzy sailor dress, embodies the endless summer mood I love’.

The edit is available to shop now, with prices ranging from £129 to £149.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
