Pretty Picnic Dresses You'll Wear All Summer Long

As perfect as these pretty picnic dresses are for lunch in the park, we’ve no doubt you’ll want to wear them elsewhere too! After all, what’s better than beautiful designer dresses you can style up or down for multiple occasions. Firstly, we’re head over heels for the Rory dress by Azeeza. From its soft pink gingham print and voluminous puffed sleeves to the beautiful square neckline and floaty asymmetric skirt. This dress is gorgeous from all angles and looks as pretty with flats for a picnic and it does with heels for a brunch date or garden party. Trust us, once you slip into this romantic midi, you’ll never want to take it off.

Another essential dress for the season ahead comes from Reformation and their Hyland, floral print midi. Its flattering smocked bodice, square neckline, and unique Virago sleeves make for an undeniably romantic silhouette. What’s more, it has a beautiful mid-length skirt with a thigh-high split, offering a modern edge to its overall design. Don’t mind us, we’ll just be living in this dress from now until fall.

Pretty Picnic Dresses That Make A Statement

When your picnic’s more than a simple lunch date, these pretty picnic dresses have you covered. The Dream Garden cotton midi by Farm Rio, for example, is one not to be missed! We’re in awe of the open V-neckline made all the more special thanks to the addition of halter-style spaghetti straps. Additionally, you’ll adore the oversized puff sleeves, colorful tropical print, and gathered bust detailing. Wear this dress with simple, heeled tan sandals for an unmissable entrance!

Lovers of the boho aesthetic will adore the Sundown gown by Spell. Made from organic cotton, this breathable, floaty dress is the quintessential warm-weather look for summer picnics. It buttons through the front so you can wear it as open or closed as you wish. Additionally, it has an elasticized waistband to define and flatter your figure from every angle.
