Drop waist silhouettes are everywhere this summer. I love the ease of the $50 Mango dress seen above — I think this would be an ideal way to dip a toe into the trend without a huge commitment, and of course you could style her a million ways. Upgrade pick: in-the-know label Merlette’s Stijl dress. Less expensive: this Amazon.

I am personally eagerly awaiting the arrival of this drop-waist skirt in cheerful citron from Mirth, which I’ll pair with my favorite fitted tank, these strappy sandals, and my go-to Watermill tote. Get the Mirth look for less with this $128 HHH, available in a few colors/patterns — but selling fast!
Other drop-waist skirt options I love: this white Susana Monaco and this striped Staud.
Back to dresses, though — a few more great picks:
01. La Ligne’s Romeo dress is trending. The color, the neckline all feel relevant and forward thinking. Similar vibe for under $300 here.
02. Doen’s Marianne dress has been popular among Magpie readers. I find Doen dresses consistently comfortable and compulsively wearable — easy to dress up or down. A Magpie reader wrote me about this look-for-less version at Bloomie’s, selling fast and currently on sale for under $100. She insisted the quality is similar to Doen (as a frequent Doen purchaser herself).
03. This colorblocked By Malene Birger is sophisticated. Looks like something Sofia Richie Grange would wear — love.
04. Boho chic Euro brand Ciao Lucia has been a herald of the trend for several seasons now. This feels Gen Z-approved, and this one has a polished finish. And I’ve seen this colorblocked dress on several chic peas recently, including the gorgeous Julia Berolzheimer.
05. Madewell is flirting with the trend with this simple white maxi. I like the idea of pairing this with one of those trendy oversized pearl-on-a-cord necklaces (look for less here).
06. If you’re more of a pattern girl, you might consider this Agua Bendita-esque style from Anthro (gorgeous for a wedding) or this under-$100 Zara.
07. And for a bold splash of color: this pink!
08. Finally, this neutral striped Simkhai feels like quiet luxury personified.
P.S. What are you secretly good at?
P.P.S. House music.
P.P.P.S. On girlhood friendships.
