Sienna Miller Has a Great Eye for Dresses—5 Trends She Can't Resist
Be it summer, autumn, winter or spring, I'll turn to Sienna Miller throughout the year for her valuable style inspiration. Favouring relaxed and wearable cuts with a distinctly boho edge, the actor's day-to-day style is one of the most iconic out there, and as we're finally moving into the warmer weather, I'm naturally turning to the star for a mood board refresh. Having done my time in heavy trousers, coats and jumpers, I'm especially interested in seeing how Miller's summer dress rotation is shaping up this year.
I came back from my research brimming with inspiration. Enamoured with Miller's ability to make new-season trends feel timeless and wearable, I've narrowed down her best dress looks to five of my favourites, all of which speak to Miller's excellent style as well as some of the season's chicest pieces.
Read on to discover the dress trends that have Miller's seal of approval for summer 2024.
DISCOVER THE DRESS TRENDS THAT SIENNA MILLER LOVES:
1. PUFF SLEEVES
Style Notes: This summer, the ultra-pretty puff-sleeve dress has been climbing the ranks. Spotted across designer and high-street brands, the structured silhouette is a refreshed favourite. Miller chose a style in a light purple hue, but I've seen them in just about every colour over the past few months, and they all look endlessly elegant.
SHOP THE PUFF-SLEEVE DRESS TREND:
This pretty floral dress is perfect for wearing to summer weddings.
Wear with polished Mary Janes or style with a strappy heel.
The linen composition is naturally breathable and comfortable enough to wear on warm summer days.
2. FRILLY
Style Notes: With an enduring love for the boho aesthetic, Miller's wardrobe is brimming with frilly finds. Reaching for the floaty trend for red carpet events and casual outings alike, frilly dresses make up a notable portion of Miller's collection—and reappear every summer like clockwork.
SHOP THE FRILLY DRESS TREND:
Rixo's occasion dresses are a fashion-person favourite.
3. WHITE BRODERIE ANGLAISE
Style Notes: This airy dress trend is ideal for keeping you cool and comfortable throughout hot summer days. Composed of a rigid cotton fabric, the broderie detail adds a lighter touch that offers both a pretty detail and breathability. Styling a typically boho-inspired look, Miller accessorised hers with a statement belt and oversized earrings, but the trend looks just as elegant when styled with fewer add-ons.
SHOP THE WHITE BRODERIE-ANGLAISE DRESS TREND:
The subtle pocket details are both comfortable and convenient.
The puff-sleeve detail adds an elevated edge.
Style with an oversized raffia bag or a large straw hat.
4. BLACK
Style Notes: No wardrobe is complete without an LBD, and Miller certainly understands the importance of this crucial buy. Choosing one with a strapless neckline, the actor crafted an elegant outfit that was easily accessorised with a black bag and shoes.
SHOP THE BLACK DRESS TREND:
Dress this down with strappy sandals or up with a pointed-toe heel.
Layer this up with plenty of necklaces or style with statement studs instead.
5. SHEER
Style Notes: Celebrities love the naked dress trend, and Miller is no different. Wearing a typically "feminine" style emblazoned with floral details, Miller's floor-sweeping dress played into her preference for delicate details and flowing silhouettes.
SHOP THE SHEER DRESS TREND:
The cotton and silk composition makes this dress lightweight and comfortable enough to wear throughout the summer months.
This flowing dress has a slightly sheer finish.
This pretty dress offers an easy way to work some colour into your summer rotation.
