Minimalists and Maximalists Agree—Polka Dots Are the Print of the Moment
Chances are, if you open up Instagram right now, you’ll spot someone in polka dots. The French-girl fave has been stealing hearts all spring and there’s no sign of it slowing down. Whether your wardrobe leans sleek and simple or unapologetically bold, there’s one thing both camps can agree on right now: polka dots are having a major moment. The timeless print is back in full force, showing up on everything from flowy dresses to tailored separates. Read ahead to embrace this anti-trend, no matter your style.
MINIMALIST
If your wardrobe is defined by clean, neutral, and thoughtfully simple pieces, polka dots may seem like a bold detour, but the right version can feel entirely at home in any minimalist’s closet. Micro dots in monochrome colorways, or subtly spaced buttons on a structured and chic silhouette add just enough visual interest to an outfit without overpowering it. Minimalists through the ages have leaned on this tried and true pattern, and it is proof that you don’t need to shout to be heard.
Another gorgeous set option. And the price point? Yes, please.

MAXIMALIST
Maximalists, rejoice! Polka dots are the kind of personality-packed print that is practically made for your wardrobe. They seamlessly slot into a wardrobe brimming with unique textures, varying prints, and bold colors. Oversized dots in vibrant hues, or even in the traditional black and white on unsuspecting silhouettes add undeniable interest to any outfit. For the style adventurous, polka dots are less of a print, and more of a power move. They nod to retro-glamor, but feel entirely modern. Style them with other fun prints for the ultimate statement look.
The kind of top that makes you book a beach vacation. I'm picturing it over a white bikini paired with sandals, but it does come with matching shorts.
