The Updated Slip

Rohe’s white slip dress does lace differently. Instead of the usual trimming, this style places delicate lace intentionally and asymmetrically for a stylish take on the slinky silhouette.

The Tiered to Perfection

Leave it to Hill House Home to offer yet another breezy sundress in a fresh new print.

The New Knit Dress

Shown on the spring 2024 runways in a bold red, Proenza Schouler’s Lara boucle midi offers two chic ways to wear it—with or without sleeves.

The Embroidered Floral

A rose is a rose is a rose… Magda Butrym’s tank dress puts a sweet spin on the label’s signature 3D floral.

The Expressive Minimalist

A.W.A.K.E Mode’s two-tone pleated maxi is effortlessly cool. With its draped neckline and bicolor pleating, slip this dress on for a one-and-done outfit.

The New Day Dress

All-over pleats lend an easy elegance to this long-sleeve teal midi. Finish off with silver-tone jewelry for a sharp, minimalist look.

Another Tomorrow

A Jackson Pollock-esque print gives edge to this otherwise simple silhouette from Raey. Tall leather boots and gold earrings complete the ensemble.

The Seasonal Blues

Róhe’s clean-cut satin maxi, with its delicate, cascading straps, is what spring dressing dreams are made of.

The Micro-Dotted Mini

Tulle, ruching, and tiny polka dots? The perfect minidress truly does exist—just add knee-high boots or tights and heeled sandals.

Saint Laurent

The Bow-Adorned Belt

It’s Monday morning and you have nothing to wear to your 9 AM meeting. Oh, wait—now you do!

From the pastiche-like animal print to the red and white contrasting trims, this silk Victoria Beckham maxi is high up on Vogue’s global head of fashion network, Virginia Smith’s fashion month wish list.

The Date Night Dress

After-hours details, like airy mesh draping, make this slinky black dress stand out.

The Velvet Rose

Are you thinking florals for spring? Because we definitely are.

The Chocolatey Brown Slip

Blame it on Willy Wonka (or Valentine’s Day!), but there’s no escaping the chocolate brown trend. Try it for yourself with this simple slip from Zara, which works well under a blazer or oversized mohair knit.

Here, Altuzarra’s 2024 version of the dip-dyed dress is a welcomed update to the classic shirt dress silhouette. Just add leather knee-high boots.

The Square Neck Midi

It’s no wonder Ganni’s assortment of easy, breezy midi’s are the kind of silhouettes we return to for day dressing; this one has a lovely square neckline.

The Tiered Shirt Dress

While often associated with the warmer months, we’d argue the white poplin dress is just as much an all-year-round wardrobe staple. Layer a long sleeve beneath or blazer over the top now, and wear as is later; just swap for seasonally appropriate footwear.

The Something Blue

A soft draped jersey midi in a refreshing seasonal blue shade spotted all over the Spring 2024 runways—sorry LBDs!

The Cool Occasion Dress

Another Tomorrow’s sleeveless turtleneck midi mixes professionalism and power dressing in one–corporate to cocktails anyone?

The Day Dress

Contrast trim adds visual intrigue to this classic silhouette—a perfect pre-spring dress if we ever did see one.

The Color Field Masterpiece

You might not own the Rothko painting (yet!), but you can own this color-blocked dress. A long pendant and dramatic earrings complete the look.

The Double-Wrap

Is it a coat? A dress? A poncho? It’s all of the above and we absolutely love it.

The Modern Zebra Print

With plenty of winter-to-spring styling potential, consider this flowy dress from Proenza Schouler an excellent addition to a minimalist wardrobe.

The Cool Crinkle

Popcorn-like fabrics that stretch and conform to the body are the perfect base for letting other statement pieces—be it a cropped jacket, bold jewelry, or embellished flats—shine.

The Accordion Pleat

Box pleating, reminiscent of vintage Alaïa, gives this cashmere dress plenty of movement without compromising on arguably the most important thing: warmth.

The Painterly Blooms

Whether you save it for spring or have a warm-weather getaway planned, you’ll love having this artful floral dress on hand for the occasion.
