6 Ways to Wear the Draped Dress This Season
Dresses were the prevailing category on the spring/summer 2025 runways. And it makes sense—it's an effortless yet effective item of clothing that can be worn for daytime or throughout the night, at work, and for play. For those who gravitate toward the more dramatic one-and-done styles, the draped dress is the silhouette to embrace this season. Vogue's Favorite Draped Dresses: There was Mattieu Blazy at Bottega Veneta with his bright orange, cascading ruffled jersey dress, and then Stella McCartney with her frothy, lavender-blue option, featuring a cape! At first glance, these styles can appear more fanciful than everyday, but there's a way to combine the runway and the routine. The chicest draped dress outfits bridge the gap between fanciful and casual, offering an artful twist on an otherwise easy wardrobe staple. There's a one-shouldered asymmetric option from Abadia that can be paired with cotton tote bags and mesh flats. Slip into a floral midi from Victoria Beckham, then add pearl earrings and strappy suede sandals for summer date nights. Go the off-duty model route, and style a draped white mini dress with clogs and a woven basket bag—an ensemble we feel Bella Hadid would approve of. Those are just some of the options to play with. Ahead, find six draped dress outfits to carry you through this season and the next. With Mesh Flats and a Cotton Tote Abadia's black dress is cut into a one-shoulder asymmetric shape, making it require little else, besides fishnet mules and a big cotton tote bag, to complete the look. With Pearl Earrings and Chocolate Brown Accessories The perfect base? A floral-print, floor-sweeping dress. Go high and low by pairing it with pearl, dangling earrings, Everlane's strappy sandals, and a leather and woven raffia top-handle bag from Neous. With a Braided Bag and Flip-Flops A bohemian-inspired maxidress from Zara and minimalist flip-flops strike the perfect balance between put-together and effortless ease. With Macramé Details and Sporty Sneakers Toteme's T-shirt dress is the item of the summer, if you were to ask us here at Vogue. Add an element of interest with a crafty macramé tote, then ground the look with a trending cord pendant and classic white sneakers for practical polish. With Ballet Flats and an Oversized Tote Bag Róhe's cobalt blue dress is vivid enough to be a statement-maker on its own. Keep the accessories pared-back with Khaite's classic soft ballerina flats and The Row's work-appropriate tote. With Clogs and a Braided Bag Jane Wade's draped, asymmetric white dress offers an edgier, cool-girl take on the dress style. A woven shopper and wooden clogs give it a Euro summer feel.

What to wear to the races this summer
While the tweeds of Cheltenham don't seem a moment ago, the summer social season is here. This means there's no time to waste dusting off the hats and fascinators, and deciding what to wear to the races, polo or summer weddings. Decoding Royal Ascot's dress code is always a task in itself, with each enclosure upholding its own set of distinguishing rules. However, there is a running theme: dresses or skirts should fall just above the knee or longer, shoulder straps should be a minimum of 2.5cm in width, trouser suits for women are allowed but should be of matching material and colour, and hats must be worn. Fail to uphold the standard and you may be denied entry, be asked to leave the enclosure, and at the least receive a judgmental stare from fellow racegoers. While rules apply and should be respected, that doesn't mean there isn't room for individual style and creativity. To ensure you do both, stick to our curated guide on what to wear to the races this summer. • This article contains affiliate links that can earn us revenue Lightweight linen lends itself to the warm weather and a shirt silhouette is always timeless. The colourful floral print on Zimmerman's dress also means there are accessory options galore — keep it simple with matching baby blue bag or choose to pick up on the pastel pink or deep red hues. £795, Zimmermann at Harrods The open back on this ethereal design from Stella McCartney makes it a little more risqué for Royal Ascot. However, rest assured this style is permitted as long as it does not feature a strapless or Bardot neckline. The high neckline keeps things feeling balanced, and we think it would look particularly smart with a boater hat and wedges at garden parties. £1,990, Stella McCartney at Mytheresa Bring the sunshine to the summer races with Roksanda's taffeta midi dress. Keep accessories simple and let the statement bow silhouette do all the talking. £2,795, Roksanda at Harrods You can avoid fussy frocks altogether and instead opt for a tailored trouser suit. Crafted from silky-soft tweed, this boxy jacket and flared trouser set from the new-brand-to-know Nomadissem will feel joyously retro with added pearls and a silk neckerchief. Jacket, £1,790; trousers, £1,350, Nomadissem at Harrods The beauty of Edeline Lee's polka-dot co-ord is when worn together the set looks like one flowing maxi dress — but it is far more comfortable thanks to the wide-leg trousers and deep inverted pleats that give the illusion of a skirt. Blouse, £495; trousers, £785, Edeline Lee at Harrods While many Ascot outfits are only acceptable for certain soirees, Carolina Herrera's trouser suit is surprisingly versatile. Not only can you wear the bow-adorned blazer and wide-leg pants as separates, said bow is also detachable for less formal occasions. Blazer, £2,140; trousers, £1,245, Caroline Herrera at Net-a-Porter Sometimes simple is the most effective and this wide-brim silhouette is a race day classic for good reason. £1,450, Emily-London at Harrods Although hats must be worn, a new series of nattily named hatinators bridge the gap between fussy fascinators and potentially overbearing hats. This Vivien Sheriff design features a sinamay mesh trim, a bouquet of orchids and curled ostrich quills. £1,050, Vivien Sheriff at Harrods A smaller but in no means less showstopping offering is Maison Michel Bibi's striking red rose fascinator, from an exclusive capsule collection designed for Royal Ascot 2025. £960, Maison Michel Bibi at Harrods It might seem obvious, but just like other events comfort is key. A block heel is a safe bet as stiletto styles are likely to sink into the lawn and are far less stable. Gucci's preppy pumps should be your shoe du jour — the signature horsebit buckle feels particularly apt for any equestrian event. £755, Gucci An espadrille wedge is actually the perfect shape for divot stomping — the act of repairing the field at half-time of a polo match by treading on the small patches torn up by the horses' hooves during play. £690, Chloe Topped with pretty bows and featuring the brand's signature plissé-organza, Loeffler Randall sandals will see you through every summery social occasion — from wedding guest looks to garden parties and race days. £320, Loeffler Randall at Net-a-Porter The five-generation family bag business Tusting knows how to make a pretty purse and is a firm favourite of the Princess of Wales. A top-handle handbag in a summery shade feels formal while still being daytime appropriate. £445, Tusting Tied around the handle of a handbag, added to the pocket of a blazer or simply worn as an elegant neck scarf, Gucci's silk scarf can do no wrong in our eyes. £430, Gucci Inspired by nature, the Bee Goddesses Secret Garden collection combines diamonds, pink sapphires and green peridot gemstones to create striking, one-of-a-kind designs. £14,700, Bee Goddess at Harrods

The 15 Best White Sneakers to Wear With Dresses All Summer Long
If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. As temperatures rise, there's no outfit formula that checks all the boxes quite like white sneakers and a one-and-done spring dress. The simply chic outfit pairing is a sure-bet style equation that's backed by luxury fashion collections and and every style star from Emily Ratajkowski to Rihanna. It's the epitome of fashion meets functionality — and with today's sneaker trends, it's never been easier to channel your inner cool girl with a plethora of women's white sneakers styles on the market. More from WWD Everything to Know About the 2025 Skims Sitewide Sale: Top Editor-Tested Deals to Shop Now Shea McGee Brings Her Interior Design Aesthetic to Fashion With Tuckernuck Veja Introduces Its First-Ever Sandal On the runways, fashion designers proved this white sneaker style formula is continuously evolving, with fresh takes showcasing the expansive range of dress and sneaker styling possibilities. At Proenza Schouler, structured, ankle-sweeping dresses were paired with low-profile sneakers, whereas Coach opted for mini dresses topped off with chunky, retro-inspired kicks, proving it's all about proportion play when it comes to nailing this look. Elsewhere, designers like Loewe and Stella McCartney experimented with dramatic high-top sneakers for maximum shoe flair. And paving the way for one of the season's buzziest sneaker trends, Simone Rochas helped usher in the ballet sneaker, which has already landed the approval of Bella Hadid and Charli XCX. Although the spring and summer's top sneakers offer more colorways and silhouette variations than ever, there's nothing more versatile than classic white sneakers for women to don for all occasions. Whether you're looking for comfortable sneakers you can wear to the office or with your Euro Summer vacation looks, white sneakers can be considered a blank canvas to accent any short, midi-length or long maxi dress, regardless of the dress' color, print or texture. In truth, it's not terribly hard to find comfortable, trendy white sneakers to wear with dresses, but to help inform your fresh shoe purchase for the season, our team of editors scoured the market (and our own shoe closets) to guide you towards high-quality options worth investing in.

Not only do they have that vintage look in terms of silhouette, the Soho Sneaker is also offered in a distressed white leather style that perfectly encompasses the current worn-in sneaker trend.

The shoe also earned major nods from Footwear News as one of the Greatest Shoes of All Time and Footwear News' Shoe of the Year in 2023 during its initial peak in popularity. While the OG white sneaker with black stripes remains the brand's most popular style, opt for this all-white sneaker to wear with your favorite spring and summer dresses. The suede upper detail, gum soles, and streamlined silhouette of the Sambas make them easy for style and ideal for comfort.

Sleek, understated, and endlessly versatile, white low-profile sneakers serve as the perfect blank canvas, allowing statement dresses to take center stage. The sharp and slim shape makes them versatile for wearing with sophisticated dresses at the office or casual, breezy looks on your days off. Offering the same styling ease as loafers or flats, they strike that ideal balance between polished and cool, making them a modern footwear staple. Chunky, Retro White Sneakers With Dresses On the opposite end of the sneaker spectrum, chunky, retro white sneakers offer more of a bold statement when styled with dresses. With buzzy new styles like Coach's Soho Sneaker and the timeless endurance of Nike's Air Force 1s, you create a more laidback and cool look when pairing these chunkier sneakers with softer, romantic dresses for a striking contrast. Not only does it embody effortless cool style, but it also adds a touch of nostalgia, paying a nod to the chunky commuter shoes of the '80s. Consider it your chance to serve modern-day Working Girl vibes at the office when paired with tailored midis or flouncy wrap dresses. White Ballet Sneakers With Dresses Deemed one of 2025's top shoe trends, ballet sneakers, also called 'sneakerinas,' are the ultimate sneaker to wear with dresses this season. With runway appearances at Simone Rocha and Wales Bonner, and already sold-out styles from brands like Adidas and Puma, the ballet sneaker is taking over in a major way. For a soft, airy look, style white ballet sneakers with equally lightweight, ethereal dresses in fabrics like linen and poplin. Alternatively, you can take the cool-girl route and style white ballet sneakers with a contrasting little black dress for more daring proportion play. White Athletic Sneakers With Dresses Trail sneakers are no longer reserved for hiking, thanks to the rise of gorpcore and the high fashion makeover of shoes like Salomon's XT-6 sneakers. The rugged, performance-driven design creates an unexpectedly chic contrast when paired with soft, romantic dresses — a perfect example of fashion's favorite 'wrong shoe theory.' Alongside these outdoorsy staples, cushioned retro athletic styles from brands like Nike are also making a comeback, reviving early 2000s silhouettes that lean into this trend. The result? A striking blend of function and femininity — durable white trail sneakers grounding airy, sweeping dresses that catch the breeze just right.
