Warm weather and spring fun have arrived! Time to revamp your wardrobe for the season and make sure you include the best spring dress trends for 2025. We’ve been keeping an eye on the runways so you don’t have to. And we’ve noticed irresistible trends that we can’t wait to see on the streets.
From teeny-tiny mini dresses to T-shirt dresses like you’ve never seen them before, we’re loving these styles.
Itty-Bitty Mini Committee
We’re hiking up our skirts and showing off those legs this spring! Uber-teeny mini dresses are in style again, bringing us back to the early aughts in the sexiest way possible. These dresses have been all over this season’s runways and are giving us flirty vibes with haute undertones. Some are simple jersey dresses, and others are ruched styles ready for your next wedding. There are no rules. But be careful when bending over!
Here are some of our favorite itty-bitty dresses for Spring:
- Out From Under Break It Up Tube Mini Skort Dress
- Revolve Grace Mini Dress
- Helsa The Heavy Crepe Cut Out Dress
High-Craft Dresses
We’re sick and tired of fast fashion, so let’s slow things down with these intricate dresses. The runways are showcasing plenty of complex, high-tech dresses that simply cannot be fabricated by a machine. No — these dresses require a human touch, which makes them all the more enticing. From beachy knits to complex appliqué, we’re head over heels for dresses that give a little extra. The attention to detail and construction here is everything, so these are gorgeous, high-quality, and made with love.
Break the fast fashion blandness with these smashing looks:
- Anthropologie Peixoto Nora Knit Midi Dress
- Revolve Zayla Mini Dress
- Marks & Spencer Cotton Rich Knitted Midi Dress
Draped in Style
Channel goddess vibes this spring with draped pieces that flow like water. This style requires more technique than you might think. It’s not as simple as tossing a piece of fabric over your body. The most beautiful draped looks are carefully created to compliment your body rather than cover it. If you want something elegant for your next event, it doesn’t get better than a draped wedding guest dress.
These dresses are the pinnacle of perfect drapery:
- Anthropologie Acler Ramshaw Draped Satin Mini Dress
- Anthropologie Bhldn Amelia Deep-V Satin Maxi Dress
- Asos Design Chiffon Marbled Mini Dress
Never Fear the Sheer
The sheer audacity of these dresses is unreal. Designers are playing with risque looks using see-through materials but keeping it classy and couture. The result is dresses that are whimsical, saucy, and dimensional, bringing something fresh to your closet. If you’re shy, sheer may not be for you. But don’t count yourself out just yet. Some of the chicest sheer styles this year are modest, with linings and boxy silhouettes that don’t show as much skin as you might think.
Check out the impressive range of this season’s sheer styles:
- Arrange Organza Floral Applique Maxi Dress
- Marks & Spencer Sheer Printed V-Neck Midi Tea Dress
- Free People X Intimately Fp Suddenly Fine Maxi Slip
Groundbreaking Florals
Florals for spring? Yes, AND they’re groundbreaking. These aren’t your grandma’s florals. They are creative twists on a familiar style, bringing flowers into 2025. Designers are pairing florals with contrasting elements, like silver sequins and black leather. They’re also using them in stirring silhouettes, with ruffles and draping at the core. Update your floral looks with flowery dresses that bring new life to what Miranda Priestly might call a wilting style.
Blossom like a badass in these modern floral dresses:
- Revolve Vinyles Midi Dress
- Revolve Luiza Sequin Maxi Dress
- Asos Design Mixed Floral Print Ruffled Mini Dress
Relaxed Maxis
The fitted maxi dress isn’t what we’re into this year. Instead, we want to feel free as a bird. Hop on the wispy maxi dress trend that features neutral colors, and airy materials. Lace, chiffon, rayon, tulle, and organza are delicious options. This trend fits perfectly with the sheer designs, so don’t hesitate to combine the styles. You’ll feel like a hippie at Woodstock or a woodland princess spreading her magic. Anything less is unacceptable.
These spring maxi dresses are flowy and free:
- Free People Fairydust Maxi Dress
- Revolve Revery Dress
- Iisla & Bird Tie Dye Long Sleeve Maxi Beach Dress
A New Take on T-Shirts
The T-shirt dress has always been a laidback look. At its fanciest, it’s a preppy option for the golf course. But luxurious, surprising T-shirt dresses have hit the runway this Spring. It’s a lovely reminder that even the most familiar designs can be reinvented. And this trend has an endless range, from lace T-shirt dresses to sequins and structured silhouettes. Be adventurous with these dresses because the T-shirt concept works with countless aesthetics, from grunge to balletcore.
Take your T-shirts up a notch with these contemporary dresses:
- Arrange Curve Lace Polo T-Shirt Mini Dress
- Marks & Spencer Jersey Fringe Trim Midaxi T-Shirt Dress
- Revolve Crystal Bow T-Shirt Dress
Vibe in Stripes
It feels like stripes are in one year, out the next, and back in again. Spring 2025 is an in-season for stripes, so break out those lined looks! We’re seeing stripes just about everywhere — from casual maxis to upscale minis. There’s really no silhouette that can’t adopt stripes, so you can rock this spring dress trend however you want. We’re obsessed with the beachy midi dresses adorned with stripes, giving us a resort vibe with a hint of preppiness. They’re especially cute when paired with light spring jackets, like denim or cropped looks. This trend is definitely something Piper from season 3 of The White Lotus would wear.
Slip into these stripey spring dresses:
- Marks & Spencer Pure Cotton Denim Striped Mini Shift Dress
- Marks & Spencer Linen Rich Asymmetrical Midi Beach Dress
- Anthropologie Conditions Apply Sleeveless Stripe Midi Dress
Spring Hues
This year’s color trends for spring lean toward pastel yet dip their toe into edgier hues. The runway is overflowing with baby pinks and periwinkle blues, which perfectly align with spring vibes. But there’s no need to feel boxed into pastels. Another fabulous color that seems to be a designer favorite this year is cherry red — one of the boldest, brightest colors you can rock in springtime. Whether you want to be vibrant and flashy or sweet and subtle, these are the three colors we’re all about this season. Yes, butter yellow is still in, but aren’t you tired of hearing about it? We are, and we love butter yellow.
