Summer is just around the corner and with the CDC updating guidelines for fully vaccinated individuals, you might be considering updating your summer dress, a warm-weather staple that can help you stay cool through increasingly warmer days. Allyn Wang, a stylist at Poshmark, previously told us that summer is an ideal time to experiment with your style and when choosing a dress anything that sparks joy is a keeper. Of course, summer dresses can get pricey — especially if you’re planning on replacing more than one. Some of the best summer dresses we found ran upwards of $150 (for the Jinaki Afefe Kaftan dress). But there are plenty of affordable options, too — and there are plenty of options on sale. Vipin Porwal, founder and consumer expert at Smarty, previously told us that shoppers should keep an eye out for summer clothing sales around mid-May.
To give you an idea of where to save right now, we compiled the best dress sales and deals at Shopping readers favorite brands like Madewell, Anthropologie, Target and more.
