When it comes summer purchases, dresses rank pretty highly on our wish list. There’s just something about slipping on into a frock that has the power to make your style feel fresh and new—which is especially helpful when you feel a little out of practice dressing for the warmer temperatures. And this latest streak of glorious weather seems to have brought on a bout of dress wearing on social media, with influencers showing off their latest additions to the world. Incredibly easy to style (all you need is a couple of key accessories), a dress always makes for a foolproof outfit solution, and these women know that.
While there are plenty of options out there to choose from, there are a few trending dresses we and our fashion friends are especially into this season, all of which I’ve detailed for you below.
They all look different at first glance, but many share design signatures. For the most part they look pretty comfortable to wear and generally fall into the “throw-on” category. You’ll also notice a recurring theme of bandeau necklines. This is something we saw over and over again on the spring/summer 2023 runways, so it should come as no surprise that it’s now infiltrating our real life dress collections, too. What I also love is that so many of them are just plain fun! From bow details to stone embellishments to vibrant colours, these dresses are a visual feast for the eyes, too.
From not one but two incredible options from one high-street brand to designer investments you’ll wear for a lifetime, scroll on to discover 2023’s line-up of trending summer dresses. You won’t be disappointed.
