25 Options to Elevate Your Summer Sundress Game

While we wish we could just throw on a bikini when the temperatures start to hover in the '80s and '90s, swimsuits aren't exactly office — or even restaurant — appropriate. Yes, even though we dread it, most places require that we actually get dressed, even when it's hot and sticky and basically feels as if the asphalt is actually cooking right under our feet. The solution, short of carrying a personal battery-operated fan (which, more power to you!), is to shed the layers and fully embrace the heat in a look that was made for it: the sundress.

There's no piece in your closet better suited for the humidity and the sweltering heat. But if the sundresses hanging in your closet from Summers past have seen better days, consider an upgrade inside. With 25 pretty, practical picks, you'll want to stock up before the heat wave.
