These Eyelet Dresses Will Make Summer 2021 More Lovely - Vogue

Fashion-wise, there is nothing more synonymous with summer than a delicate eyelet dress—the breathable fabric, enhanced by embroidered holes and creative patterns, is just one of many things to love about warmer temperatures. This time each year, we see eyelet details on just about every piece of clothing, from billowing blouses to shorts, but this style has been in the back pocket of summerwear for centuries. The eyelet, or broderie anglaise, is a technique that originates from 16th-century Europe. Presumed to be from the Czech Republic, its popularity grew during the Victorian era as a trim on dresses and underwear.

As ubiquitous as the LBD is to eveningwear, an eyelet dress steadily holds its place as the summer dress of choice. The same dress can be worn on daytime errands and then easily transition to a sunset-drenched dinner. There really is no summertime occasion when a broderie anglaise dress doesn't suit—take it from Brigitte Bardot, who wore one on her wedding day.

Depending on how you style it, your look can veer toward preppy, bohemian, or Victoriana. Wear a classic white midi silhouette (see LoveShackFancy and Ganni's lovely versions below) with heeled espadrilles for garden parties or pair it with flip-flop sandals or Birkenstocks for casual hangs around the city. Or if you're looking for something in eyelet that's a bit more eye-catching, consider a brightly colored version—we like options from Zara and Vita Kin. Don't think you can't wear prints, either. Zimmermann and PatBo offer options splashed with florals.

You can find these and more of the best eyelet dresses below. But no matter which you choose, make sure to wear it with an Aperol spritz in hand!

The Best Loose Dresses That Won’t Cling to Your Body, Even on the Hottest Summer Day - Vogue

Posted: 15 Jun 2021 02:54 PM PDT

We revel in summer weather and the fashion that comes with it: barely-there strappy tops, pedicure-baring sandals, woven totes. But on the thickest, most searing days, the best loose dresses are our saviors. The kind so lightweight and effortless, you nearly feel uncovered without actually revealing anything. We're talking breathable cotton and linen fabrics, airy silhouettes that bare skin (though not too much), and more importantly, dresses with empire or no waists at all that float around your body rather than cling to it. Dresses that don't constrict and give way to breeziness with every step.

Now, before you presume all non-clingy dresses to be shapeless, let us detail the stylish variety on offer. Firstly, it's about fabric. Cotton poplin, hemp, and flax are among the top natural fibers for heat-proof style. Each one boasts breathability with structure, pulling away from the body for a comfortably airy feel. And then there's linen, which is really the best fiber to wear on the hottest of days. We like a floral option from Johanna Ortiz, a hunter green dress by Reformation, and a loopy strapped dress from Jonathan Simkhai—all in linen and linen blends.

Silhouette is another primary factor. Spacious kaftans and empire waists are, indeed, quintessential for scorching days—labels like Merlette and Hill House Home are goldmines for such styles. For a more ventilated feel, you might size up in your preferred design—the sweaty havoc of extreme humidity is no match for it.

Even styles with sleeves can feel refreshing in floaty fabrics and a-line silhouettes. We like shirt dresses from Veronica Beard and Marques'Almeida that offer all of the polish of a crisp oxford with all of the breeze of a caftan. And speaking of caftans, they're the ultimate stay-cool garb. Tory Burch makes a great one.

No matter where your summer takes you, ahead, discover 42 stylish dresses sans cling.

No Waist Dresses

The best loose dresses are able to float around your body because they have no waist at all. Consider these zero-waist frocks ideal for summer's dog days.
