11 Spring Dresses for Warm Days and Cool Nights
Refresh your in-between wardrobe with these chic staples.
Spring, in all its glory, can be a surprisingly tricky season to dress for. One minute you’re sweating in the sunshine, the next you’re wishing you’d brought a hat and scarf. We think that when it comes to layering pieces, lightweight dresses are incredibly underrated: you can go for something a little more covered up and just add a light jacket, or layer a skimpier piece with a thick sweater, tailored shirt or trousers. The material is key—you can never go wrong with a crisp cotton poplin, but don’t sleep on innovative recycled polyester and nylon for a surprisingly breathable, soft touch. And even your favorite cold weather staple, the knit dress, can be just right for warm-ish days. Here, 11 of our favorite spring dresses, at every price point:
