1. A breathable dress here to help you in the sultriest, sweatiest of weather (um, now) then indoors where your mom keeps it at meat-locker degrees Fahrenheit.
2. A tie-dye maxi in case you sometimes allow another wardrobe into your lewk.
3. A magnificent tiered masterpiece that might just (no, def will) look like you paid an extra digit for it. But you and I know that's not the case. We shan't tell your nemesis.
4. Or a similar more minimalist looker in case you're into the off-the-shoulder silhouette without the extra pleats.

5. A scallop-detailed dress with a fit and flare shape and stretchy fabric that'll make for a lovely fit on most everyone. Don't believe me? Check out the reviewer pics!
6. A lacey dress – it'll be a sheer winner when it comes to figuring out what to wear in the morn before you take breakfast on your loveseat.
7. A ~dramatic~ cotton gown that'll look just as stunning when you're not spinning around in a circle. Oh, and it's super breathable too!
8. A button-down dress with fabric on the thinner side to help keep the air flowing because you are smokin'. Also because it's like 100 degrees out there.
9. Or a button-down looking dress in case you'd rather not bother with actual buttons. You know what it does have though? POCKETS.
10. A comfy short sleeve dress that shows a lil' leg that you can dress up enough for a wedding but will get *so* much more wear out of it.
11. A floral wrap dress for when you're into taking an ever so slightly lighter look. It's almost like a color. Almost.
12. A mini dress built for summer with its lightweight material and skirt that's perfect for twirling.
13. A strappy casual dress to help you stick with your favorite hue without sweating buckets. (Hopefully!)
14. An LBD basically made for those heart-melting gazes over your shoulder.
15. A simple jersey midi for anyone who's into basics, or just anyone who just could use another versatile dress in their rotation.
16. A ruffled delight that'll see your LBD and significantly raise the stakes. Some reviewers even went back for more colors after trying on one. So maybe this'll be your gateway to non-black frocks!
17. A swing dress to let you move as you like while looking the CUTEST.
18. A mini dress that maxes out on cute details like a floral pattern and ruffled sleeves that'll appeal to folks who are like "Ruffles? Me? Never!" Welp, I have some stylish news for you.
19. An adorable party dress ready to make you feel like you're on vacation, whether you actually are or not.
20. An elegant cocktail dress that can get you through summery special events, and also (if styled the right way!) other seasons. Just be aware that if you're on the taller side, it'll be a mini!
21. A boho mini with a cute lil' design on it, keyhole at the neckline, and a body-hugging shape for those days when you wanna wear not a lot of clothes but still look put-together.
22. A chiffon dress with fluttery sleeves for the folks who prefer to have something on their arms but don't want sweaty arms either. I see you!
23. A comfy midi dress with elastic at the waist to give you a bit of shape without being the least bit of constricting.
24. A tunic dress with gorgeous detailed sleeves that'll catch the breeze to help cool you off (not that you need any help looking cool).
25. A smock dress with polka dots, ruffles, a super easy to wear shape... really could it get any better? (It's a rhetorical question and the answer is no.)
26. A T-shirt dress as a breath of fresh air on those days with humidity so thick you can basically see it in the air.
27. A flowy boho style you'll get a ton of use out of in other seasons. Reviewers have paired it with cowboy boots and tights for a fall-friendly look that'll make you fend off the compliments.
28. A striped beaut (OK, it's also in solid black) in case you like to keep things as comfy as possible. Turns out, we're kindred spirits!
29. An eyelet midi that'll wow 'em, even if 'em is just the other people at the DMV.
30. A sundress with cute lil' cap sleeves you can wear off the shoulder or not, up to you!
31. A wrap polka dot dress as a dressy lil' option for when you wanna up your stylish ante. Also, everyone looks amazing in a wrap dress.
32. A swing dress reviewers have styled in about a million ways but first things first, it's *great* for summer as a beach dress.
33. A stretchy bodycon number set to help you overcome all sorts of would-be wardrobe disasters because it's so dang versatile.
34. A V-neck dress with some stretch in case your current LBD lineup isn't cutting it in the comfort department.
35. An easy-to-wear frock that'll bring a (v happy) tear to your eye every single time you pull it on and style with whatever else is lying around your bedroom.
36. And a spooky pinafore dress because, y'all, Halloween is around the corner and I encourage you to start celebrating now!
