Summer has officially arrived, and with it comes the rise of the summer dress – the effortless seasonal hero piece. This week, red carpets have been awash with stylish stars embracing this trend, showcasing modern and elevated designs. From slinky, minimalist slip dresses to bold cocktail dresses adorned with sprightly florals, these looks embody the spirit of the season.
Alexa Chung demonstrated that a clean, simple dress can still make a major statement. At the Serpentine Gallery Summer Party in London, she opted for a green Nensi Dojaka slip dress with strategic cutouts, highlighting a minimalist yet impactful aesthetic. Meanwhile, at a New York premiere, Lupita Nyong’o transformed a classic black dress into a show-stopping statement piece by wearing a Prada design covered in dazzling sequins.
This week saw bolder displays of fashion as well. At the Schiaparelli couture show in Paris, a star slipped into the label’s corseted pink gown, complete with a dramatic veil, creating a truly captivating look. And for the season three premiere of *[Show Name]* in L.A., Ayo Edebiri continued her winning streak with Loewe, sporting the label’s floral strapless dress with a bubble hemline. This playful choice demonstrates that a touch of whimsy can go a long way.
