A marie claire Fashion Editor’s Guide To Monochromatic Dresses For Summer

The heat calls for a monochrome mood

Summer dressing this season calls for a monochrome mood, with crip white cotton and lightweight black linen always equalling effortless chic—but look to puff sleeves and bows for a side of girlish charm.

marie claire’s fashion team has rounded up the season’s most-wanted one-piece wonders. Choose your favourite then style it up, pare it back and stay chic in the heat all summer long. 

Style tip: An ankle-grazing trapeze dress is the ultimate wardrobe chameleonsuitable for the boardroom, brunch, bar and beyond.
