While I’m not a particularly religious person, I do wholeheartedly believe in the power of the fashion gods. After all, what else could explain the miracle of instances like finding the perfect dress that fits like a glove and just happens to be on sale? Or the last pair of shoes in your size, just as you’re about to give up hope? Call it what you want (just a coincidence, perhaps?), but there are fashion miracles happening all the time.
Personally, I find discovering a new wardrobe hero item to be a little miracle in and of itself. And over the last few summers, I have been lucky enough to find a hero minidress that’s become a beloved wear-everywhere staple. Two summers ago, it was a tie-front gingham number, and last year, it was a yellow linen minidress from Aussie label Bec + Bridge. (I scored it on sale, and my size just so happened to be the only one left. Tell me that isn’t fate!)
Of course, this year, I’m hoping to find minidress success once again but have decided to take matters into my own hands, adding some extra research to the agenda. I’ve scoured countless websites and narrowed my search down to 24 wish list–topping styles. Between backless minis, embroidered options and enviable floral printed pieces, I have to say it won’t be an easy decision.
Luckily, I’m willing to share my knowledge so all this research will not have been for nothing. Keep scrolling for 23 minidresses I have my eye on this summer.
