The best dresses of the month work for now, and later—and we’re looking forward to the arrival of warmer weather. It’s time to look to effortless shirtdresses that can be transitioned into the new season, and seasonally-appropriate details that can elevate a classic silhouette. We’re talking shorter sleeves and airy fabrics, brighter hues, and textural moments that look just as good with knee-high boots as they do with strappy minimalist sandals. There are poppy prints, plus pared-back essentials to consider for work weeks, and beyond.
There’s a silhouette here to complement your transitional wardrobe and various of-the-moment styles for those hoping to embrace current trends. Shop the best dresses of March, below.
