So it’s Valentine’s day once more. But singles do not despair. Whether you’re aiming to get a date for the day or simply go out and put two fingers up to it, these dresses will most certainly help.

Whether it’s a figure hugging true freakum number or a hark-back to the illustrious housewives of the 1950s, there’s something for everybody. Valentine’s day outfits for singles can go one of two ways: they can either be designed for male attention, or a celebration of the fact that you are only dressing for yourself! So even if you are not looking for somebody for next year, make the most of it! If you are sartorially aware then having only yourself and your other fashionista friends to impress is one of the best freedoms around. You don’t have to feel a neckline is too high or that a print is too extravagant.

So whether you’re single and looking or comfortably your own woman embrace it this February 14th, because there are worse things to be than fabulously dressed with your friends.
