I'm in my dress phase right now, which isn't all that surprising considering my love for the style and the warm-weather season it calls for. As a fashion editor, I constantly have my eye on what dress styles, trends, and brands the fashion crowd is wearing from season to season. Today, I'm highlighting 10 brands that are hugely popular among our editors and the fashion set in the summer (and that keep popping up on my Instagram).
Are you ready to find your next summer frock? Keep scrolling for the stylish brands you'll want to be seen wearing this summer, plus plenty of shopping picks to inspire your next dress purchase.

Known for nostalgic and striking silhouettes and prints that evoke the spirit of California from decades past, Dôen has garnered a cult following among people who appreciate breezy and romantic frocks. There's a reason Dôen dresses are all over my Instagram feed right now.
