Trending Dresses for Spring 2023

In this post, we're giving you an overview of the top dress trends for spring/summer 2023. Which fabrics, silhouettes, and colors are set to dominate next season? Let's take a look together.

Minimalism on Point: The 90s Just Won't Quit

You've probably noticed it already: bold colors, pure minimalism, and clean lines define this season's outfits. Which also means the 90s simply refuse to leave the fashion scene. A restrained mood runs through the collections, and minimalist pieces show up in nearly all of them.

Colorful and Bold Dresses: Colorblocking and the Monochrome Look

The big fashion houses led the way, the online stores are already full of it, and at the latest since Valentino's striking all-pink collection, bold, eye-catching colors are here to stay. Dresses in bright pink, blue, yellow, and green* show up in almost a third of the new spring/summer collections. And it doesn't have to be a fully loud outfit — single elements or pops of bright color are just as welcome as they are on-trend.

For the truly bold, it's also worth considering, well, let's call them "special" materials — think latex or leather.

Sheath Dresses Are Back: The Office Must-Have

Sheath dresses are fully back in trend for spring/summer 2023 too. They might even make the leap out of the office and become an everyday fashion staple, given how present they are in the new collections. They come in every length and material — mini, midi, or maxi, leather to wool — there's definitely a sheath dress out there to suit everyone.

On top of that: a trend that's been showing up in skirts and blazers for a while now has finally made its way into sheath dresses too. Brands like Burberry and Hermès are leaning hard into the "old money" aesthetic in particular.

Show, Show, and Show Some More: Transparency Is In

This summer 2023, fashion is bringing more and more into the light. From corsets in every variation to sheer, wafer-thin, see-through fabrics, this season gets under the skin — or maybe we should say, around the skin. Pleated fabric remains one of the absolutely must-have trends, and paired with sheer materials, you're right on the current fashion line. Even sheath dresses and clean, structured cuts don't get away without a transparent touch. Lace, chiffon, mesh — as far as the eye can see.
