23 Chic Crochet Dresses That Have Me Dreaming of Holidays
There’s one recurring dress theme that keeps cropping up this summer—crochet dresses.
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.
Perhaps it's because it feels like we're teetering on the edge of spring and 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.
White crochet dresses seem to be one of the most popular styles.
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 an extra ease to this breezy style. Sheer styles will show off swimwear underneath, and easily transition from beach lounging to dressy dinners. There's also plenty of more opaque options for those who want to embrace the bohemian fabrication all year round.
However you style it, I've found the best crochet dresses for summer.
