The other side to the delicate Chinese ceramic prints are the Eastern influences inspired by bold colour. If pastels aren't your thing we think this dress is perfect for hot summer nights. Style with a skinny belt and peep-toe ankle boots

This silk fringed kaftan-cum-jacket looks great over a simple white cotton dress or thrown over a vest and jeans. Its vintage feel means it's a wardrobe classic to pass down to the next generation

A perfect investment piece. Great for a cool day look with cotton trousers and a useful jacket to throw on for cocktails or liven up a simple dress. We love a sequin detail

If you fancy trying out the eastern trend but don't really do busy prints, try this. The apple and white bold print is striking without being too busy. The sleeves are ultra-flattering if your 'house!'-calling days are behind you ...
