How To Wear The Gingham Dress The Summer 2021 Way?

Gingham is the classic print that never goes out of style, whether during winter or summer. While gingham jackets and pants are perfect for fall and winter outfits, gingham dresses are an easy throw on option when it comes to summer looks. From wrap dresses, puff-sleeved mini ones, to maxi dresses, there is a gingham summer dress for everyone, and it’s the perfect choice for picnics or brunch in the sunshine, as much as for laid-back parties. Easy to wear, the gingham dress embodies the lightness and ease of summer, and is ideal for both work and the weekends. You can pair it with a denim jacket, a small handbag or crossbody bag, flats, sneakers, espadrilles sandals, or boots for a casual look, or you can go for heels if you want to make a statement. Don’t let the sweetness of this checkered print fool you, gingham dresses can be chic, fierce and sexy. To help you navigate these ways of wearing the gingham dress this summer, we’ve rounded up for you some inspirational street style photos from some of your favorite fashion girls.

And for today’s look, we chose one of the biggest color trends we’re wearing in 2021: orange. We styled a Victoria Victoria Beckham gingham maxi dress in vibrant orange with a white Saint Laurent crossbody leather bag, crystal embellished white leather Nicholas Kirkwood flats, oversized Chloé sunglasses, and Fendi (just like the French bread) Baguette drop earrings. As you may have noticed, we kept accessories to a minimum, to let the recognizable summer print do the talking. Keep scrolling to shop this fresh look in few clicks.
