20 Affordable Summer Dresses to Add to Cart—All Under $45 |Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing

last updated 16 September 2021

What can I say? This article is as straightforward as the title implies. Twenty warm weather ready dresses that are, indeed, as delightful as they are affordable—thanks, of course, to our very own Who What Wear collection. What more could one really be looking for two-thirds of the way through spring and with summer Fridays officially in full swing now that Memorial Day weekend has come and gone?

I guess you could say that there’s actually a bonus here in that below you’ll also find photographic evidence of just how perfect some of the dresses are, thanks to some of our favorite girls on Instagram. For me, that always helps to get a sense of what a piece really looks like in the wild and, most of the time, to narrow down my many, many options. So, to see how 13 of our shoppers are already styling their summer dresses and, of course, to shop the frocks for yourself, just keep scrolling.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
