Abercrombie Fitch Dress Fest Sale UNI 23
Paula Boudes for PureWow

Dresses are our summer uniform, and with the new season approaching, we're taking stock of our wardrobes. As one says, out with the old and in with the latest. Good thing the Abercrombie & Fitch Dress Fest Sale is happening this weekend. It’s the perfect time to update your rotation because up until June 12, you can save 20 percent on all the brand's fan-favorite frocks that rival our go-to Revolve styles with price tags that stand to be more budget-friendly. You should also know that the discount applies to men’s collared shirts (ahem, Father’s Day is coming up!), and in case you plan on shopping for more than that, you can use coupon code DRESSFEST to snag *another* 15 percent off dresses and almost everything else on the site.

But back to the dresses. If you're still not over the fashion from the latest season of White Lotus, PureWow's commerce director, Nicole Briese, swears that the brand's floral patterns, like the one on this wide strap linen-blend mini (was $70, now $48), will make you feel like you're living it up in an episode yourself. "Just try and tell me you don’t hear the show’s theme song playing in your head while you gaze at it—just try!)," she says in her review of a similar style. That's hard to pass up, much like this one-shoulder satin midi (was $130, now $88) that will make a lovely summer wedding guest dress (just read all the comments).

Bottom line, if you need a casual or a fancy dress, a mini or a maxi, a solid or a print, this sale is for you—because again, they are all marked down. Looking for a place to start? Here are eight on-sale styles we love.

This Abercrombie & Fitch Dress Makes Me Feel Like I’m in ‘White Lotus’—and It Comes in Petite and Tall


  • Size Range: XXS to XL

From its shiny satin fabric to its corset-style bodice seaming, this strapless maxi (with a leggy back slit) just screams sophistication. It’s no wonder we can see this becoming our go-to for weddings, date nights and basically any special event going on this summer. And just so you know, it *does* come with attachable straps for when you want to shake things (or keep things) up. Miraculously, it’s also machine-washable. Thank the dress gods.

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL

Just take a quick scroll through customer-submitted images, and you'll see why we're wasting no time scooping up this machine-washable mini. But to be clear, it's all because of its versatility, boasting a silhouette that allows it to go from the beach to dinner (and back again, if you’re into midnight strolls). And lest we forget the soft linen-blend fabric that makes reviewers want to wear it on repeat. The high-neck and back keyhole are details that just make this anywhere-dress *that* much more chic.

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL

It would be wise to grab this light poplin dress in as many colors as possible because it’s truly the ultimate summer style. The sweetheart neckline makes the classic smocked bodice extra flattering, while the tiered skirt adds breezy volume to keep you cool on sweltering days. The cutesy ruffled sleeves are another accent we adore, but what really has us hooked? The pockets, of course.

  • Size Range: XXS to XL

For when you need to get dressed up in little or no time, this lightweight maxi with the most beautiful movement (shout out to its sheer and drapey fabric) will get the job done and then some. Flowy as it is, its low-cut back can be cinched to your liking, and with an elasticated waistband plus adjustable straps, the dress can be perfectly customized to your body for the best fit possible. Who says effortless has to mean frumpy?

  • Size Range: XXS to XL

One reviewer says this babydoll dress (with pockets!) is even prettier in person, while another raves about the oversized sleeves, twist-front detail and sweetheart neckline. Meanwhile, we're obsessed with the cotton and polyester (machine-washable) fabric that is sure to be comfy. The elasticated bow-back detail also doesn't go unnoticed and will prove useful in getting the fit right.

  • Size Range: XXS to XL

Described as a crowd-pleaser, this Marilyn Monroe-style satin number certainly won't stay in stock for long. Buyers have worn it everywhere—from graduations to bridal showers and weddings. Sure, it’s got sexier features like side-slit cutouts and a plunging V-neckline, but the pleating design throughout strikes the ideal balance between bold and elegant. As far as functionality, it has adjustable straps and a center-back zipper closure, so comfort won’t be an issue.

  • Size Range: XXS to XL

Simplicity is becoming of this square-neck mini featuring adjustable wide straps and a voluminous skirt that adds some fun flounce. The stiffer cotton poplin is also on point, giving the ruched silhouette a figure-hugging structure you won't be able to resist. The fact that it has pockets just makes it all the more lovely—and gives us another excuse to wear it all summer long.

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL

Headed on vacation? This lightweight flowy midi dress will undoubtedly be your favorite fit. First, its crinkly texture and plunging V-neckline will make it stand out in every selfie and mirror photo. Not to mention, the keyhole cinch detail makes it possible to get a tighter fit with a tie. More features like built-in pockets, wide straps and back smocking just make it all the more vacation-ready.
