Ladies, say hello to the new LBD. I know what you’re thinking, and your eyes are not deceiving you. This French Connection Sugar Candy Dress is in fact…white. White is on serious trend right now, black may be the safe option but white is the HOT option. If red wine or bolognaise is your thing then you may have to substitute it for martinis and carbonara, but hey, small price to pay for an uber hot look.
French Connection’s Sugar Candy Dress keeps things simple and elegant with floral patterned beading along the v-shape neck line, complimented with beaded detail along the cinched cuffs. The long sheer sleeves add a touch of lady-like glamour and if your arms are not your favourite part then this dress will be your new best friend.
The sugar candy dress is available on line from the French Connection website in sizes 6-16 for £135.
Not sure on what to wear with the Sugar Candy Dress?
White is always quite tricky to accessorise, being a neutral colour it can be easy to throw yourself into colour over drive, so just keep to certain tones. It is also essential to note, do not go accessorising your new beautiful white dress with a big stain, so be careful with food and drink! White can be very unforgiving when you spill steak sauce down it!

Black tights can also be a grey area when it comes to white dresses. Not all of us like bearing our legs and tights don’t have to be ruled out, just make sure you up the denier so they are good and thick. If you do opt for black tights then black shoes are certain chic!
If you’re rocking the bare leg look then keep tones neutral, nudes are a sure fire hit with white! Office has a new range of shoes perfect for any fashionista and their minted court nude patent shoes will compliment this dress better than strawberries compliment champagne.
The beaded detail around the neck-line and cuffs means you should keep jewellery to a minimum, don’t risk looking too blinged out. Small drop earrings will add a touch of sparkle and girly glamour.

Do you like the French Connection Sugar Candy Dress but you’re not too keen on paying the £135 price tag? Fear not, Rare have an alternative cream shift dress that is a fraction of the cost but just as hot.
