How to Style A White Shift Dress

After Sophie Richie’s wedding, we’ve all been eyeing the iconic white shift dress. A shift dress is a versatile and effortless choice for creating chic, minimal summer outfits. A shift dress is a loose-fitting dress that hangs straight down from the shoulders, without any defined waistline. Its simplicity and clean lines make it the perfect minimal summer dress, and a must-have in any classy wardrobe. The shift dress silhouette is classic and timeless, allowing it to go beyond seasonal trends and remain a wardrobe staple for years to come.
