OUT: CUT-OUT DRESSES IN: STRAPLESS DRESSES (THIS ONE IS UNDER $100):

Excessive cut-outs had their moment, but in 2025, they’re stepping aside for a more timeless option: strapless dresses! While small cut-outs can add a subtle touch of allure, multiple large cut-outs can sometimes feel over-the-top. Instead, opt for a chic strapless dress that highlights your shoulders and collarbone in an elegant way, like this beautiful red option by Superdown. It features the most stunning coral red shade, has lots of stretch for comfort, a super slimming silhouette and even comes with a chic scarf! All that AND a under $100 price tag makes is the perfect option for a spring wedding or a date night. I wear an XS and I find it fits true to size.

OUT: NEON COLORED DRESSES IN: BRIGHT COLORED DRESSES

Neon hues can be tricky to pull off and often overpower an outfit. This year, it’s all about embracing bright yet wearable colors like bold coral, sunny yellow, and vibrant cobalt blue. These shades add energy to your look without being overwhelming. Plus, they pair beautifully with neutrals and metallic accessories, making them easy to style for everything from casual brunches to spring weddings. This beautiful royal blue midi dress boasts a sweetheart neckline, lots of stretch in the material and a back slit for easy movement. It’s also 30% off right now bringing the price point well below $100 making this dress and amazing value. I wear an XS and would stick with your regular size for the best fit.

OUT: UNEVEN HEM DRESSES (WHERE THE HEM IS SHORTER IN THE FRONT) IN: MINI DRESSES

High-low hemlines have been fading out over the last few years, making room for the return of the classic mini dress. Flirty, fun, and flattering, mini dresses are perfect for spring and summer. Whether you prefer a structured shift or a breezy A-line, this shorter hemline brings a fresh, youthful vibe to your wardrobe. I adore the forest green shade and the flared sleeves of this option by Paige. I paired it with some strappy sandals and a sleek east west handbag for an effortlessly stylish look. It’s currently on sale for 25% and I wear an XS.

OUT: OVERLY RUFFLED DRESSES IN: MINIMAL AND SLEEK DRESSES (THIS DRESS IS UNDER $40):

Dresses with layers of ruffles can sometimes feel overly fussy and outdated. This season, clean lines and simple silhouettes are taking center stage. A well-tailored sheath dress or a softly draped slip dress offers understated elegance without all the extra fabric. These styles are versatile, polished, and perfect for any event on your spring calendar. This baby blue option is the perfect example of a sleek minimal dress! It’s fully lined, comes in tons of colors, is wrinkle free AND has a price point under $40! I wear an XS and I find it runs true to size

OUT: BIG FLORAL PRINT DRESSES IN: SOLID COLORED DRESSES

Last but not least on my list of 5 spring dress trends out of style is oversized floral prints. They’re stepping aside in favor of sleek, solid-colored dresses and while florals will always have a place in spring fashion – large, heavy prints can sometimes feel overwhelming. Instead, opt for a monochrome dress in a striking color like forest green, rich magenta, or classic black. Solid hues create a streamlined, sophisticated look that’s both timeless and flattering. This beauty from AllSaints is the perfect maxi-length t-shirt dress! It’s so chic and slimming and I love this gorgeous olive green shade. It’s has tons of stretch for extra comfort and the ruching makes the fit super flattering. I wear an XS in this spring must-have and I find it fits true to size.
