Putting on your first spring dress of the season is practically a spiritual experience. Once we can finally let our legs loose (with tights or not), the green light is on for alfresco dining, outdoor concerts, and the break from the cold we’ve all been waiting for. 

Spring dresses are the ultimate one-and-done solution for putting together versatile outfits. And this season’s dress trends are bringing some fresh excitement — from drop-waist frocks and milkmaid styles to summery crochet maxis.

“I love that spring dresses don’t demand too much time or effort styling, especially after a long winter of layering and outfit building,” Emma Hill, founder of London-based brand Damson Madder, tells Refinery29. “The right spring dress makes getting dressed so much easier.” Layer your dress with stacks of jewellery, a coat or jacket, and your kicks of choice, and you’re ready to go — whether that’s for day-to-day life, a night out, or the next spring wedding in your diary.

To help you find your next warm-weather dress that will score high on their cost per wear, we asked fashion experts about the trends of the season as well as their styling tips to match. 

Ahead, find six dress trends that will see you through spring — and then some.

Spring 2024 Dress Trend: Drop Waist

A hero on the fall 2024 runways, ’90s-inspired drop-waist dresses have staked their claim in modern dressing. The lower waistline gives off a retro, feminine vibe and works across all hemlines. According to Net-A-Porter market director Libby Page, “we expect that drop waist dresses will assert themselves as core components in our everyday capsule wardrobes.” If you want to go even bolder, opt for a bright color or a printed style.

Spring 2024 Dress Trend: Crochet Maxi

Ring in spring (and warm up for summer) in a crochet maxi dress to bring out your inner Italian summer, White Lotus aesthetic. “Crochet dresses are perfect for summer and instantly update any wardrobe,” says Virginia Olaso Bilbao, head of design at European brand MAKSU. Layer a crochet coverup over a slip or knickers (for the naked dress effect), or opt for a dress with open knit detailing for more coverage. “We also love unexpected styling, like a midi ecru dress with red cowboy boots,” Bilbao suggests.

Spring 2024 Dress Trend: Milkmaid

Milkmaid dresses mix regency style and balletcore, with their cinched waists, A-line skirts, and common features like bows, dainty laces and puff sleeves. “I love that this dress is super versatile,” says Hill. “You can easily chuck it over a shirt or tee with ballet flats or loafers for a daytime look, and then dress it up with a heel in the evening,” Hill says. 

Spring 2024 Dress Trend: Asymmetric

Asymmetric dressing applies to various styles, from one-arm necklines to eye-catching embellishments to asymmetrical hemlines. “We love an asymmetric neckline. It’s fresh and playful but still super chic,” says Jess Kaye and Rosie Williams, founders of the wedding and eveningwear brand OWN Studio. “Our Take a Bow dress [pictured here] in lemon is one of our favorite pieces, The crystal bow on the shoulder means it doesn’t need much styling.” Pro-tip: Use the asymmetry as a focal point; if the look feels unfinished, match your shoes with your jewellery to bring it all together.

Spring 2024 Dress Trend: Ice Blue

Ice blue is another big color trend that’s made its way from runway to consumer, thanks to spring/summer 2024 collections from brands like Fendi, Prada, Tod’s and more. Though you may not want to think about any sort of iciness after months of winter, this hue brings a whole lot of heat, too. “Ice blue is the color of the moment,” says Henry Graham, creative director at Wolf & Badger. He suggests spicing it up by “layering a structured biker jacket or boyfriend blazer over a sheer ice-blue dress for an impactful and chic look.” 

Spring 2024 Dress Trend: Printed

Flourishing aesthetics like leopard print and Western styling have perfectly primed us for the printed dress trend, which leans towards bigger, more playful prints. “Leopard is still a big trend at the moment,” says RIXO co-founder Henrietta Rix. “It has always been a much-loved part of our RIXO aesthetic, and leopard is one of those prints that is eternal,” she says. Beyond animal prints, experiment with big florals, abstract graphics and large screen prints.

On the practical front, the tee is made in the cult-favorite Nulu fabric that wicks away sweat and dries quickly.

Lululemon quite literally has you covered from head to toe, and that includes tons of hats to keep your face protected from the sun. You can opt for one of the brand’s bucket hats or visors, but we think a baseball cap may be your best (and most versatile) bet for your travels this summer.

This Skims T-Shirt Is A Best-Seller: How R29 Editors Are Styling It

.disclaimer{width:90%;margin-bottom:1rem}.disclaimer__lines{width:100%;margin:0 auto;border-bottom:1px solid #999;padding:0;max-width:150px}.disclaimer__copy{width:100%;max-width:355px;font-family:Brown Regular,sans-serif;font-size:.9rem;font-weight:300;line-height:1.3em;color:#333;padding:0 0 .4rem;margin:1rem auto;text-align:center}
All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission.

While Skims has long been a go-to for undergarments, more recently, the Kim Kardashian-owned brand has become beloved for its loungewear and everyday basics, too. For proof, see the viral Skims slip dress, as well as editor-favorites like the Fits Everybody bodysuits and ribbed tank top. 

The Cotton Jersey T-Shirt is one of those best-selling products, with a 4.7, out of 5, star rating and 1,823 reviews. Made from a lightweight and stretchy cotton-spandex blend, the tee comes in sizes XXS through 4X and six core colorways. 

In our quest to determine whether this T-shirt is worth the hype (and its $48 price tag), five editors took it out for a spin, styling it for the springtime. Whether keeping it casual with statement denim and cargo bottoms or dressing it up with blazers and pointed-toe heels, we have a lot to say about the Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt. Our review ahead.

Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt in Bone, $48

“I will happily give this T-shirt a 10/10. As someone with E bra cups and a curvy waist, the fit of a baby tee is everything for me: the sleeves can’t be too short (otherwise my chest will pull the fabric into my armpits), and a super-cropped length is a no-go. After a day of wearing this T-shirt to the office, I’m going to (maybe prematurely) say that Skims has nailed it. 

This tee is satisfyingly soft; the material is perfectly stretchy, thanks to its 90% cotton, 10% spandex blend; and it snatches my waist comfortably. I’ve found Skims products to be hit-or-miss in the past (I love their Seamless Sculpt shorts, but the Fits Everybody thongs definitely don’t fit me), however this T-shirt gets an A-plus from me.” — Ebony-Renee Baker, Fashion Editor

Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt in Mineral, $48

“I’m a sucker for Skims cotton — I regularly wear the brand’s ribbed cotton tank top and cotton jersey underwear — so I was excited to try this T-shirt. I ordered the Mineral colorway and love how it looks with my red-dyed hair. This top isn’t as buttery soft as many other Skims offerings, but it has a nice high-quality thickness.

I decided to pair it with a cargo mini skirt, straw purse, and cork wedges, and I think it made the cutest casual daytime look. I can see myself wearing the top with similar short or skort combos again. And for a comfy lounge-around-the-house look, I plan on pairing T-shirt with my matching Mineral cotton jersey boy shorts.” — Victoria Montalti, Associate Fashion Writer

Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt in Soot, $48

“When I first pulled the shirt from the packaging, I couldn’t help but think how small it was. But while it looks like it came from the children’s department, it stretches and molds to the body when you put it on. While the shirt is a little tight for my taste, it’s incredibly soft and hugs the body nicely. Bonus: no bra is necessary thanks to the double-lined design.

That said, I will use it as a layering tee, underneath sweaters and blazers (as seen here), rather than on its own as I still prefer more oversized tees with my jeans and skirts.” — Irina Grechko, Fashion Director

Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt in Kyanite, $48

“I’ve tried a Skims tank top and underwear in the past and loved them, but, after trying this shirt, I am a confirmed Skims fan. I normally wear size medium or large in shirts because of my bust and broader shoulders; I tried this in a medium, and it fits great. I love how, with the stretchy material, the shirt forms to your shape. I’d even maybe wear the shirt braless — and I never ever go braless.

I styled this with jeans and liked how the bagginess balanced out the tight fit of the crewneck. I imagine as the weather heats up, I’ll gravitate toward pairing this shirt with skirts and an oversized jacket.” — Becca Sax, Affiliate Coordinator

Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt in Light Heather Grey, $48

“Say what you want about the Kardashians but one thing we can all agree on is that Skims is that girl. Everything from the swimsuits to the undies is quality, and the Skims Cotton Jersey T-Shirt is no different. I don’t know about you, but I love a tight shirt moment for the spring and summer, and I’ve already worn it three times since I’ve gotten it. You can layer it or wear it on its own and dress it up or down, which makes it versatile. The material is super comfortable, breathable, and has just the right amount of stretch.

I love that I could wear this shirt around the house without a bra for a comfy and chill vibe or dress it up by pairing it with shorts, boots, and fun accessories. I also love that the material is thick enough, so that it won’t snag or rip easily, but also doesn’t feel hot or dense. 10/10 recommend.” — Cortni Spearman, Director of Social
