This is not a fashion moment for the faint hearted. From bold statements to bright prints and the most difficult-to-wear skirt length of all time, it's a jungle out there. Karen Dacre offers a guide to style survival.
The midi skirt: Spring’s calf-length skirt is a tricky look for non-supermodels to master: Oh dear.

Avoiding dark-coloured tights will help elongate the appearance of your legs, as will the highest pair of heels in your wardrobe. (£35, topshop.co.uk)
