A Little Skin Never Hurt Anyone
When it comes to cover up dresses, a little skin never hurt anyone. It’s no secret that the summer weather can be incredibly hot, and coverups with more skin exposure will provide much-needed relief. And this summer, knitted crochet dresses and cutout styles are in style. These dresses not only provide some breathing room but are also trendy and fashionable. Plus, the intricate details of the knitted crochet dress will elevate your beachwear game and turn heads.
Just take a look at the CAPITTANA Martina Crochet Cover-Up Dress for a good example. While it’s certainly destined for the beach, you can also head out to a poolside party with it. On the other hand, cutout styles provide a unique twist on traditional cover-up dresses and add a touch of playfulness to your summer wardrobe. Our top favorite is the TULAROSA Olynne Mini Dress, perfect for the season. By choosing cover up dresses that show off a little more skin, you’ll not only stay on-trend but also feel confident and stylish while enjoying your summer activities.

Cover Up Dresses For Beyond The Pool
Not everyone wants to show off a lot of skin in their cover up dresses. Conservative styles are still in fashion and cater to those who prefer a more modest look. For those who like to keep things simple, a long-sleeve tunic or a maxi dress in a reserved color or pattern is a perfect choice. The conservative look of these dresses is perfect for those who want to enjoy their time at the beach or poolside without drawing too much attention on their outfit. And let’s be honest, we can all feel like that at times.
For those who want something a little more fashion-forward, the MELISSA ODABASH Eclipse Ceramic-print Off-the-shoulder Dress was made for you. Dresses like these come in a variety of shapes and sizes, making it easy to curate the perfect beach wardrobe. It’s also never too late to pair these cover up dresses with a designer pair of sandals and beach bag.
