Remember the eighties resurgence of last Spring? It seems like things have gone a bit asymmetrical again, with one-shouldered dresses and blouses being back on the fashion agenda for this season.

This time around, the look is less eighties-glam and more Grecian goddess, as at Lanvin, where a toga-like cocktail dress complete with drapey sleeve, was belted at the waist and accessorised with vampy lips and scraped-back hair. Over at Rodarte, the queens of ethereal elegance – sisters and creators of the label, Kate and Laura Mulleavy - did what they did best and magicked up a delicate wisp of a dress in a creamy chiffon fabric, fit for a fairy. Other designers took a more rock n’ roll approach: Proenza Schouler’s LBD was bodycon, constructed of a sheeny, leather-look chiffon, and paired with punky accessories, and at Gucci, Frida Giannini presented an asymmetrical dress splashed with black and white paint flicks.

Every girl needs a trusty LBD, and Topshop’s one-shouldered version is on-trend and on budget, at £38 ($75). Bring out the Grecian goddess within and reference the dip-die trend by donning ASOS’s fabulously feminine chiffon number, £38 ($75). Peacock’s asymmetrical cocktail dresses come in emerald green and black, but at only £14 ($28) each, you might be tempted to get both! If you’re more of a pants and blouse kinda gal, Miss Selfridge’s one-shouldered top in a rich indigo (£25/$49) might be more your style.
