Tiered maxi dress, £25 by Dorothy Perkins

Fabulously Seventies, this tiered maxi echoes Abigail's Party yet stands firmly on-trend for 2007. Lily Allen is a fan of the block-brights maxi and teams hers with trainers – a look that's brave but undeniably cool.

Check out the hottest maxi dresses for summer 2008 here.
