1. All in white – spotlight on white dresses for summer
White dresses are a timeless classic that reappears every season. They add lightness and freshness to many outfits, so every fashionable woman should have at least one white dress for the spring-summer season. The latest collections feature a variety of styles: classic shirt dresses, ones with ties, embroidery, lace, and even sheer models. If you don’t already have a white dress, we recommend opting for a minimalist version that works both for daily wear and evening dinners. Notable collections from brands like Camilla and Deha include interesting options. Oversize linen white dress is a versatile choice for a busy day in the city. Pair it with a denim jacket or a leather biker jacket and sporty shoes. For a boho chic look, a maxi dress with fringe suede jacket and wedge heels will guarantee a wow effect!
2. Metallic dresses in the spotlight
Do metallic colors only remind you of carnival? Not this time. This season, we’ll shine even in the summer. Metallic dresses will be the most fashionable dresses for summer 2024. Take a look at Sportalm’s collection – an incredibly feminine gold dress will add lightness and femininity. If you have a rectangular figure, the creasing on the dress will add volume to your silhouette, and if you want to hide your belly, thise unique creasing will do the trick.
3. Trendy dresses with cut-outs
While cut-outs in dresses are not new, they are making a strong comeback this season. The result? Ultra-feminine and elegant options that will dominate the streets in summer 2024. These are ideal candidates for important outings, but we think they will also pass the test for everyday wear. The latest collections feature dresses with cut-outs around the stomach, back, or collarbones.
An excellent choice is the black linen dress from the Italian brand Deha, perfect for warm spring days and summer. The flared skirt accentuates your feminine silhouette and boosts your confidence. Pair it with slides in the summer or trendy white or black sneakers in the spring.
4. Floral and patterned dresses on the must-have list
Summer floral dresses are a classic, but this season, brands are taking a step further and offer colorful and energetic designs. You can’t overlook them. A great example is Sportalm’s maxi dress with Aztec patterns, which catches the eye not only with its unique print but also with colors that add energy.
Linen romantic summer dresses are another must-have. Positano Couture, a new brand in S’portofino, offers delightful flowing dresses perfect for summer evenings. Their collection stands out with floral motifs, girly colors, and elegance – choose Positano Couture!
You can also opt for dresses with stripes, polka dots, classic floral motifs, or tropical prints. If you’re looking for more elegant options, you’ll find them in the collections of the Australian brand Camilla.
Nautical patterns will dominate this summer, so check out the navy and white striped dress from Helly Hansen, perfect for hot days. Pair it with classic white sneakers or platform slides, which will be a hit this summer.
5. Minimalist fitted dresses
Minimalist fitted dresses are perfect for women who value elegance and simplicity in fashion. They are a symbol of subtle style and femininity and work well in both everyday and more formal outfits. Usually made from smooth materials like cotton, linen, or viscose, they beautifully highlight the silhouette. The color palette often includes neutral shades like black, white, gray, beige, and light blue, making these dresses easy to style.

You’ll find classic dresses in beige, white, and light blue shades, perfect for daily wear, accentuating the feminine silhouette. Pair them with sporty shoes or slides or sandals in the summer.

The biggest advantage of tennis dresses is their versatility in styling.

How to choose the right dress for your body type?
We’ve shown you the trendiest dresses for the season; now it’s time for a brief guide on how to choose a dress that highlights your best features. Here are some tips to help you pick the perfect dress for spring and summer.
- Apple body type: opt for dresses with a loose top and fitted bottom. Empire waist dresses also work well. Avoid tight dresses that draw attention to the waist.
- Pear body type: characterized by a narrow waist, wide hips, and narrow shoulders. Choose dresses that highlight the upper body, like those with decorative necklines or puffed sleeves. Avoid peplum styles that emphasize the disparity between the chest and hips.
- Hourglass body type: Known for being the most proportionate. Pencil dresses or those with a belt at the waist work best. Opt for round or V-necklines.
- Banana body type: lacks a defined waist with shoulders similar in width to the hips. Aim to add volume with dresses featuring ruffles, creasing, or lace. V-neck or sweetheart necklines are great choices.
- Inverted triangle body type: narrow hips and broad shoulders. Choose flared dresses to balance the proportions. Avoid wide sleeves or large decorations that make the shoulders look broader.
