Ever since the tie-dye trend re-entered the zeitgeist, it’s been hard not to fall in love. Because tie-dye clothing isn’t just fun—it’s also inherently reminiscent of childhood summers and hanging out with your friends at camp (even if you never actually got to fulfill your dream of going to sleep-away camp. Still not over it, mom.) Whatever your specific memories of tie-dyeing may be, there’s no ignoring the fact that it makes every article of clothing a joy to wear—including dresses. Though often overlooked, plus-size tie-dye dresses are a must-have iteration of this trend (and seriously ideal for warm weather).
Typically crafted from cozy fabrics and rendered in low-maintenance silhouettes, these dresses are comfortable enough to spend all day in. And thanks to the tie-dye’s natural maximalism, you’ll make a statement without even trying. Honestly, waking up and getting dressed on a hot summer morning has never sounded as appealing as it does when you throw in a few tie-dye dresses. Comfy, easy to style, and effortlessly cute? There’s nothing else we could ever want in a dress.
Plus, there’s a little something for every style—from tie-dye bodycon looks to cozy sweatshirt dresses. This essentially just means that no matter the occasion, you can find the perfect tie-dye dress. Opt for a bodycon mini and your highest heels for a night out on the town with your BFFs. Or, create a can’t-miss weekend ensemble with a tie-dye T-shirt dress, chunky sneakers, and oversized sunglasses. You can even stay on the couch all day watching Netflix in a tie-dye sweatshirt dress, then bless your Instagram followers with a few mirror selfies. Whatever your plans, plus-size tie-dye dresses have your back.
So go ahead and lean into this trend while it’s still hot. Our hope is that society’s love for tie-dye will never fade (pun intended)—but even if it does, there’s no way we’re giving it up now.
