Summer 2025 fashion trend No. 1: The vintage polka-dot dress

Polka dots have been voted the trendiest prints of 2025. We're seeing them everywhere, in all shapes and forms, including on pretty summer dresses!

This timeless pattern adds a retro touch to your looks. But in 2025, it's modernized and comes in colors other than the classic black and white. Bright or pastel colors, mini polka dots or big patterns, there's plenty of fun to be had with your style!

For a resolutely vintage look, adopt a long, flared polka-dot dress with structure and a black and white pattern. Wear it with heeled sandals, a red leather bag and sunglasses.

Discover the three long dresses with black and white polka dots, with a retro and feminine style selected by our Cloz fashion experts:
