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.

9 Ways to Embrace Summer's Standout Prints—From Bohemian Florals to Stripes Galore
A bold printed dress is often the whole outfit—and for the spring/summer 2025 season, the runways proved just how many directions that outfit can take. From Dries Van Noten's pastiche-like mix-and-match of artful prints to Miu Miu's playful clash of textures and colors, Toteme's minimalist approach with classic stripes, and Chloé's bohemian ease—there's not just one way to wear a printed dress, and that's exactly the point. Styling a printed dress doesn't necessarily have to mean going all out. With the right pairings, even the most vibrant pattern can feel understated and modern. Vogue's Favorite Printed Dresses: Whether you're dressing for a city stroll, a sunny holiday or a formal wedding, the printed dress can be reimagined endlessly. Try it with casual flip-flops and a knit slung around the waist for off-duty cool; with jelly sandals and a denim jacket for an irreverent twist, or suede flats and a crisp shirt for understated elegance. Whatever your style or setting, the printed dress adapts—and these nine refined outfit ideas below show just how versatile patterns can be. Going Gingham With Flip-Flops and a Lightweight Knit A printed dress can be your easiest everyday piece. Take this cotton halter from Massimo Dutti for example, paired with simple yet chic red and black flip-flops from The Row, a silver shell-shaped ring from Sophie Buhai, and a soft cotton-blend Leset cardigan to wrap around the waist for nonchalant ease. Effortless Daytime Polish With Suede Touches The kind of printed dress you can wear anywhere—Ulla Johnson's paisley style works just as well for city strolls as sunny holiday destination. Pair it with Ancient Greek Sandals's suede flats and Aesther Ekme's half-moon bag to give the look understated elegance and throw on a Flore Flore shirt in the perfect grey color as a casual layer for chilly evenings. Seeing Stripes With a Trending Jelly Flat and Denim Jacket Sometimes, the fun is in the unexpected. Take an understated printed dress like this one from Toteme and give it a playful twist with this season's surprise hit: Chloé's jelly sandals. Pair it with a dark-wash jean jacket from emerging denim label Rùadh and a chic gold necklace from Copenhagen-favorite Lié Studio to strike the ultimate balance of polished and playful. Modern Minimalism With Abstract Stripes and a Chic Statement Pendant For those who usually gravitate toward solids, choose a dress in muted tones and a tonal print like this slip from Australian brand Sir. To keep it simple yet chic, wear it with hand-woven flats from Dear Frances, a silver statement necklace from Juju Vera, and a structured practical bag from Manu Atelier. Runway-Inspired Bohemian With Platform Heels and Oversized Sunglasses Take cues from the SS25 shows and style your printed dress the boho way—think a floral dress like this Mango number and the '70s-inspired shoe of the season, a platform wedge—like these from Massimo Dutti. Lean into the theme with oversized gold-tone sunglasses from Khaite x Oliver Peoples and finish the look with a woven raffia pouch from Cos. The Refined Wedding Guest Look With Strappy Heels and It Bag Wearing a printed dress to a wedding can feel bold—but styled with the right accessories it's suddenly easy to wear. This streamlined silhouette from Dries Van Noten has a subtle but elevated print that you can easily pair with Khaite's strappy heels, the perfect compact yet chic black bag from fashion girl-favorite Savette, and classic Wayfarers from Ray-Ban for the group photos. The Statement Mesh Mini With Fashion-Forward Accessories A printed mesh mini is a bold choice—consider softening the look with Tory Burch's mesh flats featuring sculptural silver hardware. Add in the L.L. Bean x Tibi belted tote bag—a street style hit—and oversized Thistles sunglasses (a Jennifer Lawrence favorite) for a relaxed look that reads equal part directional and carefree. Jean Paul Gaultier x KNWLS mini dress $490 SSENSE Thistles The Atlas sunglasses $290 THISTLES Pretty in Polka Dots With a Trench Coat, Raffia Bag, and Loafers Crafted from a silky-satin blend with a halter neckline, this Dôen dress feels elevated yet relaxed. Dragon Diffusion's woven green bag adds the perfect hint of color, while Reformation's black loafers and Jenni Kayne's timeless trench balance it out with a grounded, classic feel. Destination Dressing With Florals, Feathers and Beads This floral feather-trimmed dress from La DoubleJ sets the tone for holiday nights, styled with flat Mango sandals that keep things easy yet chic. A black beaded mini bag from Zara and glass bead earrings from Completedworks inject a dose of whimsy and personality for a chic vacation look.
