Many a fashion pundit has declared that—in terms of trends—the dress is dead. But as warm weather approaches, few garments possess the frock's transformative powers and ease of use. In short, the dress's all-in-one outfit advantages can come in handy whether you're on a weekend getaway or just in the mood to keep it simple. Here's a few key picks as you shape your summer wardrobe.
Florals, SquaredMiuccia Prada has a knack for hinting at trends in a subtle way—in this case the massive spring/summer florals influx. But Miucca takes a less obvious route by eschewing prints, instead using a variety of amethyst, violet, green and gold sequins to form flowers on this Miu Miu cream dress. Break this one out for the cocktail hour.
Color FieldFor those who just can't abide florals, this See by Chloe dress is the perfect arty alternative. Reminiscent of an Ellsworth Kelly painting, it's printed with swaths of pale green, pink and purple, and makes a breezy style statement whether you're in Malibu or the Maldives.
Mormon ChicWith polygamy making headlines of late, the conservative attire of Mormon women has become a bit of a fashion sensation. If you want to channel the look without delving into the dowdy, this A.P.C. floral-print dress hits the (conservative) mark. And with the hemline hitting just above the knee, there's no need to worry about looking like Nicky from Big Love.
Back It UpIf you don't mind calling a little attention to your derriere, this Bernard Wilhelm camisole dress is just the trick. It's dip dye shade and ruched pockets will certainly draw stares, but the real point of interest is in the rear, where a gathered rose detail begs for notice. Credit to : Robert Cordero
