35 Spring Dresses That Work for Easter Brunch and Every Other Plan After

Easter brunch is as much about the outfit as it is about the menu. Even better? When that brunch is shared with good company and also happens to mark the start of a new season. Whether it’s a casual gathering or a full-fledged garden party, the occasion calls for a dress that feels fresh, polished, and perfectly in step with spring. My personal dress code? Something effortlessly chic, with just the right mix of classic and modern—because if I’m putting together a moment, it has to feel like me.
From romantic florals to sleek color palettes and playful silhouettes, I've found the best dresses to make Easter dressing feel easy (and exciting). If you're all about embracing color and prints to break out of your winter wardrobe, there are plenty of mood-lifting options. Prefer neutrals or an all-black ensemble? There are spring-friendly takes that feel just as fresh. So whether you’re leaning into a ladylike moment or adding an unexpected twist, these picks guarantee you’ll be the best-dressed guest—for Easter and every spring event on your calendar moving forward.
For brunch and drinks with friends after to celebrate the long weekend.
If you’re planning on attending a formal spring soiree, this would be my first pick.
Because I've been loving tweed lately.
