I've been absolutely obsessed with Free People for a while now. Every single dress on their website is gorgeous and almost always of great quality. They've truly mastered the trending "European summer" aesthetic. While many of their dresses are fairly pricey, Free People also offers a variety of more affordable options. Some of my current favorites include the "Full Swing Mini Dress" and the "Real Love Embroidered Dress."
While Réalisation Par may be a bit more expensive than some other brands on this list, it offers some of the cutest summer dresses on the market. From minis to maxis and polka dots to gingham, each dress radiates a unique vibe. Not to mention, the quality of each item is absolutely top-notch. Some of my favorite styles currently on their website include “The Brigitte,” “The Isabelli,” and “The Lila.”
Obviously, Urban Outfitters is a go-to favorite for many teen girls and young women. While the sheer number of products listed on the website can be a bit overwhelming at first, they actually offer quite a few stunning summer dresses. Personally, I'm completely obsessed with the "Jessa Mesh Halter Mini Dress" and the "Rosa Mesh Halter Mini Dress." Plus, anything under the Kimchi Blue brand is absolutely adorable.
Each time I’ve ordered a dress from Princess Polly, I’ve been thoroughly impressed. Over the past few years, I’ve purchased dresses for concerts, photoshoots, and even my high school graduation! Princess Polly truly has it all. Some of my favorite dresses on the website right now include the “Nellie Mini Dress”, the “Dionne Mini Dress”, and the “Delamere Mini Dress”. Or if you are looking for a different brand but with something similar, try Tobi.
Lastly, Zara has a fair amount of cute summer dresses. While it's not always the most reliable place to shop, I found quite a few gems. I'm absolutely obsessed with the "Patchwork Print Dress" and the "Ruffled Satin Effect Midi Dress." Both of these dresses would be amazing for a day trip or your summer vacation!
