The biggest dress trend for summer 2024? One that arguably has never gone out of style: the crochet dress.
For a carefree, free-spirited season, fashion houses and labels have been leaning toward a bohemian style that takes us straight back to the â70s. But just as with the crochet skirt, theyâve elevated the dress version for modern times, opting for sleek silhouettes with interesting cutouts and patterns. The result: Crochet dresses have become an essential item for any wardrobe.
Dress trends: How to wear crochet in summer 2024
Weâve done away with overly prim crochet in 2024. Instead, opt for the minimalist variations seen on the catwalks and in stores as of late. Look for crochet dresses with sleek, curve-hugging silhouettes, natural hues, or unexpected cutouts and prints.
For inspiration, look to the immaculate crochet dresses at Maje and Sandro or Marine Serreâs patchwork version. Thereâs also the sunset style at Oscar de la Renta and a baby blue crochet dress at Ganni. Meanwhile, La Double J went for a â60s effect with a modern twist.
Whatever version you choose, style with minimalist accessories like the newly trending ring sandals, a little tube bag, or an oversized blazer. This will keep the look squarely in 2024, rather than appearing like a â70s cosplay. Itâs the perfect balance of work and play.
Below, find a selection of our favorite crochet dresses that can be worn day or night all summer long.
