18 Long Floral Dress For Spring That Are So Honestly Pretty, Miranda Priestly Can STFU
Forget about Miranda Priestly's most famous line in terms of what constitutes exciting spring fashion. No, long floral dresses might not necessarily be groundbreaking, but they're reimagined in beautiful and vibrant ways each year that make them more than worthy of being added to your wardrobe sans judgmental eyebrow raise. Things that are seasonal classics become that way for a reason so go ahead and indulge in all of the wearable blooms you want—you'll still look all kinds of fresh.
While floral printed mini dresses are certainly breezy and carefree there's a special feeling that comes with their longer, more romantic sister styles. Maxi and midi dresses boasting petal-fueled prints have a certain sunny, bohemian vibe about them that makes you want your entire life to turn sepia-toned and soundtracked when you wear them—why wouldn't you want to indulge in that feeling every year as soon as springtime rolls around? Whether you prefer strapless styles or those with long sleeves, subtle ditsy floral prints or vividly hued oversized blooms, the below roundup of flowy dresses will have something for you. Looking like a giant bouquet will always be in, no matter what anyone tells you, so go ahead and take your pick.
