If You've Never Bought These 7 Dress Trends, Now Is the Time to Start

At first, the thought of purchasing a “trendy dress” might sound like an unwise investment. After all, everyone knows it’s generally safest to stick to the classics if you’re looking to buy something for the long haul, and dresses are not something you want to cast aside after just one season. However, the trends I’m about to call out for this summer are likely a far cry what you probably have in mind when hearing the aforementioned phrase. Yes, they’re trendy, but they’re also not too trendy. As someone who has admittedly simple style and would rather err on the side of boring than too out-there, you can trust me on this one. From throwback necklines to flattering textures, the frocks you’re about to see below feel both of-the-moment and for-the-future. To see what I mean and, of course, shop all seven of the trending dress styles for yourself, just keep scrolling.

If you're looking to make a statement this summer—at least with your clothing—the open-back dress is the stylish way to go. 
Integrate this mood-lifting print into your spring and summer wardrobe for a dress that will make you smile time and time again. 
As my colleague Lauren recently pointed out, cami dresses with a ruched front are suddenly everywhere and, as someone who's already purchased two of them, I couldn't speak more highly of the easy little micro-trend. 
That's right. It's time to either dig up your old halter from the back of your closet or snag a new one.
Smocking, which is as flattering as it is cool-looking, just so happens to be very on-trend this season with the "more is more" approach taking the lead. 
There's a puff-sleeve resurgence going on and the mini dress seems to be the fashion set's favorite way to get the look right now.
Random, I know, but pale yellow (in all forms) has been everywhere this summer and the shade is especially striking as a dress. 

Next up, take a peek inside the vacation wardrobes our editors are flaunting this summer.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
