5 Dress Trends You Won't Regret in 10 Years

You've probably noticed that Who What Wear editors have written quite a few stories about the pieces that get us the most compliments. These days, the only people seeing my outfits are my parents and my dogs, so I'll spare you their biased takes on my summer looks. However, I'll still tell you that I've lived in easygoing dresses for months now. Although I've been on a strict budget during the quarantine, I am willing to spend money on classic dresses. 

If you're ready to make the investment too, you've come to the right place. I came up with a handful of my favorite dress trends that will definitely stand the test of time. Classic, timeless, perennially chic, ageless—whatever you want to call it, I guarantee you won't cringe at these classic summer dressers 10 years from now.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
