Polka dots are the It print of summer 2025. While the classic pattern never really goes out of style, it certainly goes through waves of influence and popularity through different fashion seasons. It's trend-forward yet timeless, and this summer, the fashion set is embracing the print via dresses, capri pants, tops, and swimsuits as well as mixing and matching polka-dot prints within an outfit. Whether you go for classic small dots or a bold color, you're guaranteed to look on-trend wearing a polka-dot piece this summer and into fall.
Its overall prominence this season proves playful dots are a savvy investment to shop right now. Below, I'm sharing my favorite polka-dot pieces from three retailers we love: Nordstrom, Revolve, and Shopbop. After scouring all three, I've found some of the chicest pieces you can easily wear now and into the new season.
Revolve
This set is at the top of my wish list.
Shop the matching Carla Skirt ($169).
A polka-dot bikini will always be in style.
