As the countdown to the June 20 solstice narrows down and calendars become full with vacation plans that call for tons of swimsuits, we're especially excited to add fresh summer dresses to our wardrobe this season. The traditional piece is a one-and-done outfit choice that's both stylish and practical for extreme temps, which makes getting dressed even more effortless and peaceful.
Many retailers have contributed to our love for summer dresses, from Zara's budget-friendly offerings that keep up with fashion's ever-changing market cycle without fail, to Net-a-Porter's sophisticated designer picks specially curated to specific occasions that make the shopping experience even more seamless. For those fashion lovers who are stuck in their minimalistic ways, but still want to nail the season's biggest trends, stores like Reformation offer chic midis and sundresses that will meet all your shopping needs. And for the sustainably-minded, The RealReal has a vast collection of second-hand luxury pieces at more affordable price points, contributing to a greener industry.
