Whether you've booked a trip to trendy Tulum, are planning a European tour, or reserved a not-too-far-away Airbnb for a long weekend, holiday style starts with an edit of stylish dresses [1].
This year, everything from punchy prints to bold colours and breezy white styles are flooding the new arrivals sections, making it more exciting than ever to stock up every dress on your packing list. Hint: this should include daytime styles to wear with sandals [2] or sneakers, breathable fabrics you can toss over swimwear [3] or wear to lunch, and just-dressy-enough options for evenings out.
But because we're all aware that a holiday didn't really happen unless you post about it on Instagram, a photogenic assortment is essential for any getaway. Ahead, 26 of our favourites for every type of holiday, including super-affordable picks from the POPSUGAR at Kohl's collection [4]. If you haven't booked a holiday, these styles are proof you should.
