The start of spring not only means we finally have some warmer weather to look forward to, but it also ushers in wedding season. And Roisin Conaty's outfit for the Royal Television Society Programme Awards is one of my favourites to date.
A classic floral maxi is ideal for spring weddings and race days. They’re timeless, romantic, and perfectly in keeping with the season thanks to their botanical prints. Plus, they need very little extra styling, which makes them easy to wear.
Stepping out on the event’s blue carpet, Roisin wore the Rosa floral pleat maxi dress from Phase Eight and accessorised with no more than a pair of flesh-toned, embellished heels. This is all the dress needed, as the dress's vibrant green hue featured a pastel floral print that added to the romance.

Roisin's Phase Eight dress is a striking spring piece, with its green and pink hues creating a beautiful colour palette. Style it like Roisin with flesh-toned heels, or complement the pink tones with matching accessories.
A delicate, chiffon-style fabric gives this dress tons of movement, as well as a soft and romantic feel that's ideal for warm-weather weddings. The floral-esque, watercolour print is also striking, meaning it needs little styling to stand out.
The delicate floral print of this sage green midi dress is given added interest by the addition of striking lace panels. Breaking up the print on the skirt and adding texture to the sleeves.
The modest cut of this dress, with its high-sitting neckline, long sleeves and flattering but loose-fitting shape, makes elegant dressing easy. Plus, its vibrant floral print and sheer mesh layers add texture and movement.
The tones in this dress might be brighter than those of Roisin's gown, but a sparser floral pattern balances out the look. With long sleeves and a shirt-inspired design, with a belt at the waist that allows you to play around with the shape.
This maxi-length dress gets an ultra-feminine flair from its wrap silhouette, with a thick waistband highlighting the design. Add to that its frilled skirt detail and asymmetric hemline - plus its handy side pockets - it's an all-rounder.
When it comes to knowing what to wear to a wedding, if you’re in doubt, you cannot go wrong with a floral maxi dress. Roisin’s style is particularly flattering thanks to the wrap-style bodice, pleated skirt and blouson sleeves that create a romantic silhouette that nips in at the waist for an hourglass silhouette.
One of the best wedding guest dresses, Roisin proves, that a beautifully printed dress can make a real impact on its own, with minimal additional styling.
Roisin opted for footwear that would make some of the most comfortable wedding guest shoes. With a low heel and sleek silhouette, her embellished shoes are just the kind of style we want to be wearing to weddings, as they work effortlessly alongside busy patterns.
