A white dress is like the little black dress of Summer. You can dress it up, dress it down, make it edgy, or keep it sweet. It’s a clean palette against which to accessorize, adding or subtracting jewelry with reckless abandon. The sky’s the limit with this color (or lack thereof…), as you opt for every silhouette from the uber tailored to the romantically flowy. A white dress can do no wrong, acting as a throw-on-and-go staple no matter what event is on your agenda.
