Introducing: The Shopping Show You Didn’t Know You Were Missing

Let’s say you RSVP’d yes to a wedding this summer. The only problem: The dress code says “fancy goth ranch”…which is supposed to mean what, exactly? Decoding wedding guest dress codes and solving other real-life sartorial dilemmas are just a couple of things that our new R29 Fitted shopping show, done in partnership with Amazon Live, will tackle.

In our five-episode series, we’ll be giving our five-star recs, doling out advice and hacks (like how to sweat-proof your look or hem a dress at a moment’s notice), and spotlighting the trends we’re loving right now. 

First up: an entire episode dedicated to piecing together a summer capsule wardrobe. Yes, you need one. Yes, it’ll streamline your getting-ready process. Yes, your life will change forever (no, we’re not being dramatic). In the segment, co-hosts and styling duo Danielle and Alix will show you how to build (and wear) the ultimate, non-boring 29-piece capsule that’ll reflect your personal style.

21 Linen Dresses to Wear All Summer — From Vacations to Weddings

When it comes to warm-weather dressing, linen dresses are the MVP. Lightweight, breathable, and built for heatwaves, linen does what other fabrics can’t — it keeps you cool without clinging. Sure, it wrinkles. But that’s part of the charm.

This year’s standouts? Drop-waists with a hint of romance, floaty maxis ready for your next vacation look or festival outfit, and refined cuts that double as the ultimate wedding guest dress. Color-wise, the lineup runs from grounded neutrals and earthy solids to more playful picks like gingham and trending butter yellow — all highly closet-worthy.

Ahead, 21 summer-ready picks — from crisp and structured to soft and flowy — in every length from minis to midis to maxis, all waiting to be paired with your go-to summer sandals.
