We’ve recently rounded up our favorite gorgeous maxi dresses for every occasion — so you can just slip on your sandals, grab your summer tote, and brace yourself for the compliments!
1. Reformation Winslow Dress Es, $378
We’re LOVING this option for weddings and special occasions! This functional wrap dress comes with an adjustable waist tie, so you can wrap it tightly for a fitted look, or opt for a looser, boho silhouette.
2. Free People Ultraviolet Dress, $192.40
Available in three colors, this smocked maxi comes complete with puffed sleeves and *probably* the prettiest strappy back detailing we’ve seen this season.
3. Vince Camuto V Neck Jacquard Maxi Dress, $117.17
You just can’t go wrong with a black jacquard v-neck! This versatile option can be worn with sandals or switched up with colorful heels.
4. Madewell Plus Lucie Tie-Strap Tiered Midi Dress in Florentine Floral, $189 $133
If you’re not all about that floor-sweeping maxi silhouette, this longer midi should be calling your name. We love the sweetheart neckline and tiered, pocketed(!) skirt.
5. Plenty by Tracy Reese Checkered Maxi Dress, $248
PSA: You won’t have any issue finding shoes and accessories to match this technicolor beauty!
5. Farm Rio Mixed Pink Prints Maxi Dress, $400
Farm Rio always delivers vacay-worthy prints and patterns, so it’s no surprise that their maxi dress selection is totally on point right now.
6. ASOS DESIGN Scoop Neck Maxi Sundress, $45
For those of us that are obsessing over the Y2K-inspired styles right now, this high-slit maxi is for you! We love how it’s casually styled above, but it could easily be worn with a metallic heel for a special event.
7. Ace & Jig Nadia Dress, $625
Ace & Jig always offers some solid patterns for every season, but we’re especially obsessed with all of the bright boho designs for summer!
8. A.L.C. Rhodes Dress, $495
