A summer dress is a type of clothing that is specifically designed to be worn during the warm season. It can come in various styles, lengths and colors but generally speaking it's lightweight, airy and made from breathable fabrics such as cotton or linen. Some common features of a summer dress include spaghetti straps, v-necklines, floral prints, ruffles, and bright colors that are popular during the warmer months. Summer dresses can be worn for casual occasions like picnics, barbecues, or outdoor gatherings as well as for more formal events such as weddings or parties.
