Five Must-Have Dresses for Spring

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UVA chapter.

The Mock Neck: High necks are getting even higher this spring. Many of this year’s dresses feature a mock neck, or a pseudo turtleneck style, dress that counterbalances short hemlines and adds a little something to otherwise simple looks.

The Striped Dress: Sleeveless. Short sleeve. Shift. Bodycon… Striped dresses are so in for this spring. You don’t have to look very far to find one.

The Cutout Dress: These may not be the best idea for class, but a showing a little skin never goes out of style. Some of these popular dresses opt for just a sliver of skin, while others give ample opportunity for weird tan lines.

The Open Shoulder Dress: This style is especially popular with ‘70s inspired fashion making a come back. The slouchy sleeves are a perfect way to rock the boho vibe.

The Shirt Dress: These are pretty versatile since a lot of them are so much like shirts that they can be worn with leggings or even jeans on chillier days. Popular styles for spring include flannel, denim, and utility.
