By now you're probably aware of our love for dresses. From linen styles to trending designs, we spend a lot of time searching for the best dresses that are worthy of adding to your wardrobe. And during my most recent research I found my wish list filling up with one specific style: Crochet dresses.
Style Notes: There’s one recurring dress theme that keeps cropping up this summer—crochet dresses.
Perhaps it's because it's finally summer that this easy style has truly caught my eye. The intricate detailing, boho feel and breezy fabrication has me dreaming of upcoming holidays at home and abroad. This style can be thrown over beachwear for a stylish cover-up, or simply add a slip underneath to make this restaurant ready. Either way, it's a style that you'll fall for year after year.
Style Notes: Of all the crochet dresses white seems to be one of the most popular colours.
There's plenty of variation between the best crochet dresses. Minimalist styles repeat the same stitching for a clean look, while other styles create patterns through clever construction. Hemlines go from trending mini styles to wafting maxi lengths that add extra ease to this breezy style. Sheer iterations will show off swimwear underneath, and easily transition from beach lounging to dressy dinners. Plenty of more opaque options exist for those who want to embrace the bohemian fabrication all year round—you can even find crochet styles with linings.
However you style one, I've found the best crochet dresses for summer.
