MakeMeChic Square Neck Maxi Dress

Flouncy, floral, and floor-skimming, this lady-like maxi dress from MakeMeChic is exactly what you need for summer. You can transform the squareneck to wear off your shoulders for a flirty feel without showing too much skin. The dress is available in beautiful large floral prints, dainty polka dots, and even a solid maroon shade, and you can order it in up to size 4XL. "It's about all I wear during the hot days of summer," one five-star reviewer gushed. They also said the dress was "perfect for summer" because it's "substantial enough to be worn anywhere and lightweight enough to be comfortable during the warmer days."

Amazon Essentials Surplice Dress

This style is a best-seller for a reason; the soft jersey fabric lends the fit-and-flare style even more appeal since it offers "stretch and give in all the right places." Think of this dress as your new wardrobe essential, especially if you grab it in one of the solid hues, like black, navy, or jade green, along with the versatile leopard print, all of  which are all available up to size 4XL. Dress it up for a special event with strappy sandals and a braided clutch, or wear it while running errands with your favorite pair of slip-ons. Another shopper echoed my sentiments, saying, "They're the quintessential "throw on and go" dress and look cute dressed up or dressed down."

Grace Karin Sequin Cocktail Dress

A special occasion calls for an exquisite dress, and Grace Karin delivered with this striking sequin cocktail dress to get you through the wedding season. The elegant, slightly ballooned sleeves and tie waist only enhance the streamlined sequin-covered skirt. One shopper who planned to wear the piece for their 23rd wedding anniversary dinner agreed. "It's so comfortable, simple with a hint of elegance," they shared. Another customer raved that it was "comfy and breathable," and they were "able to dance all day" during a Harlem Renaissance-themed event.

Larace Button-Down Sundress

Forget the little black dress; all eyes are on the little tank dress this summer, and Larace's button-down design is equal parts cool and relaxed. (Oh, and did we mention it also has pockets?) The simple silhouette and cozy fit will help you feel comfortable, whether you're hosting an outdoor get-together or meeting friends out for brunch. "This dress is soft, flowy, and super comfortable," a customer praised. They also commented that the soft, high-quality fabric that was "thick enough" not to show through "but still thin enough" to keep them "cool."
