Nothing says "I'm ready for summer" quite like a breezy white dress. Whether it's a crisp poplin shirtdress for the city, a breezy linen dress for the beach, or a silky slip for evening cocktails, the versatile frock can serve as a blank canvas for any type of accessory, bag, or sandal style, evoking effortless elegance no matter how you style it. In addition, designers featured little white dresses all over the spring/summer 2025 runways, from Jil Sander to Bottega Veneta, so you'll surely look on-trend by wearing one this season.
Summer is the perfect time to refresh the white dresses in your wardrobe for the warm weather, and below, I'm sharing 50 of my favorite fashion-forward styles worth considering this summer, from Zara's vintage poplin lace dress to Posse's sweet mini. You're sure to find a hero LWD to suit your taste and budget.
