Pink Alayna Minidress
Recommended by: Leigh Weiss, Affiliate Coordinator
“I have been loving the fairy-dress look. This beautiful light pink Raga Malak is perfect for a dinner or event by the water on a warm night.”
Skylar Knit Dress
Recommended by: Emily Greene, Marketing Strategy Director
“Thinner-knit pieces are ideal for spring given that the weather can be so finicky, and this Reformation dress might be my new go-to for that very reason. With a mock neck and thigh slit, it doesn’t feel as ‘basic’ as a lot of other dresses I’ve seen in stores this season. With Reformation’s commitment to sustainability, it’s a splurge you can actually feel good about during Earth month.”
Black Stripe Minidress
Recommended by: Samantha Wu, Marketing Coordinator
“With the Ganni SoHo store across from our office, it’s hard not to take a quick peek at new arrivals each season. Perfect to dress up or down, this Stripe Mini Dress from Ganni is the absolute cutest. Whether it be heading to the office for the day or getting happy hour drinks, this versatile dress will immediately make you feel put together—without the hassle of putting together an ensemble.”
Kacie Mini Shirtdress
Recommended by: Paige Kowal, Associate Account Manager
“Madewell’s ‘Do Well’ line lets you feel good about looking good. Spring is the ideal time to break out the pastels, and this dress is a full outfit in one. Just chuck on your favorite pair of sneakers and run out the door.”
Lace Panel Cotton Piqué Polo Shirt Dress
Recommended by: Amanda Beausoleil, Associate Manager, Brand Partnerships & Sales
“I always need a few t-shirt dresses in my closet, and Burberry’s polo shirt dress will be one of them! This dress is giving me a lady who lunches (but doesn’t want to be there) energy, and she just happens to look on-point, because she’s that good! That’s the type of spring I’m trying to have and this dress will help me get there!”
Renata Minidress
Recommended by: Emily Greene, Marketing Strategy Director
What good is dressing for spring without a few fun pieces thrown in the mix? The wavy trim is a signature of Staud’s, and it’s done exceptionally well here; the touch of black feels like a natural transition out of our dark winter wardrobes, while the off-white linen fabric offers a taste of summer, making it the ultimate spring staple.
Long Dresses
Lora Long Dress
Recommended by: Leigh Weiss, Affiliate Coordinator
“I am always a fan of Rococo Sand’s designs. They tend to have a sexy flare, while remaining elegant and classy. This dress is making me want to book a spring getaway ASAP.”
The Satin Square-neck Slip Dress
Recommended by: Samantha Wu, Marketing Coordinator
“As someone who never knows how to properly dress for the ever-changing New York City weather, this slip dress is a great staple to layer under cardigans, blazers, or simply on its own. It’s perfectly suited for that one beautiful April day that hits 70 degrees—New Yorkers, you know what I mean. This dress is a perfect addition to a capsule wardrobe and beyond.”
Matilda Dress
Recommended by: Caroline Dunn, Manager, Sales & Brand Partnerships
“I will say that a TikTok try-on of this dress is what got me. I choose black for the early spring days when I’m still pairing it with boots, but very well may end up coming back for a floral print later in the season.”
JW Anderson Sleeveless Shirt Dress
Recommended by: Leya Kaufman, Head of Brand, Publisher & SVP of Sales
“I’d wear this dress with my favorite pair of hi-top sneakers and an over-abundance of gold chains. Something about the drop-waist just does it for me–it’s flowy and free for spring.”
Gabriella Dress
Recommended by: Patricia Foster Stein, Executive Beauty Director, Brand Partnerships & Sales
“This flawlessly chic midi dress is an Ode to Spring! It’s even better than a slip dress and transitions easily from day to night, or city streets to evenings in the country. The burst of flowers, textured satin, ruched side string, and asymmetrical side make it flattering on everyone.”
Belted Dress
Recommended by: Amanda Beausoleil, Associate Manager, Brand Partnerships & Sales
“Spring is finally here! My color palette will consist of white, white, and more white! I love when I can wear an ensemble that takes me from day to night. Yes, I love an all-white night look too! The Hermes belted dress with mother-of-pearl buttons will have me gliding down these New York streets without a care in the world.”
Soho Black Cap Sleeve Midi Dress
Recommended by: Caroline Dunn, Manager, Sales & Brand Partnerships
“I never met a piece from DISSH that I didn’t like, and the brand’s new Soho collection is no exception. This dress gives very chic NYC-girl energy, but feels as comfy as pajamas.”
Black Dresses
Robbie Linen Two Piece
Recommended by: Danielle Scumaci, Campaign Manager
“Okay, so it might not be a dress, but who doesn’t love a two-piece set? This fitted mini skirt paired with the sleeveless crop top is the perfect go-to outfit for all of your spring plans. Rock this set with some sneakers for a casual brunch or throw on a jacket to dress it up for a post-work happy hour with friends. The styling possibilities are endless.”
D-Jumish Double-Layer Mesh Dress
Recommended by: Amanda Beausoleil, Associate Manager, Brand Partnerships & Sales
“I know I said I’ll be wearing all white, but I lied–I need this Diesel dress! I’m currently in a mesh phase and Diesel’s double-layer mesh dress is giving me the green light to keep going! This sultry number is the perfect dress for me–a keep staring (don't touch) look for going from one date to another this season.”
Contrast-Panel Mini Dress
Recommended by: Caroline Dunn, Manager, Sales & Brand Partnerships
“This dress was the one that got away after completely selling out last spring, and I’m so happy COS brought it back in multiple colorways. I’ll start by layering it with a turtleneck until the summer weather finally sets in.”
Gigi Dress
Recommended by: Samantha Wu, Marketing Coordinator
“I’m currently on ‘Book Tok’ and have been obsessing over all things Daisy Jones & the Six. After reading the Taylor Jenkins Reid novel and watching the series, my feed is suddenly all things 70’s and I can’t get enough. The series recently launched a capsule collection with Free People and I am in love with this dress. I adore a low-back dress, plus the chain straps on this one are a unique detail, making it ideal for those warmer spring days out and about.”
Ruched Midi Dress
Recommended by: Paige Kowal, Associate Account Manager
“Elevated basics are the key to a successful spring wardrobe. This midi dress provides the most comfortable version of the LBD made with activewear material. This dress can take you from brunch to happy hour and back again.”
