10 cottagecore-inspired dresses to live in this summer

TikTok has made many fashion aesthetics famous in recent years – Tomato Girl, Mob Wife, Mermaidcore – and the general consensus is that the internet's core is a bit tired. That's all fine and fair, but we'd be remiss to ignore the fact that some of the aesthetics that have become popular are big winners, and at the top of that list is cottagecore.

Cottagecore and its minimalist floral patterns, muted tones, and whimsical silhouettes emerged a few years ago, sparking the collective internet's desire to frolic in a field with a picnic and a fist full of daisies. Many have since moved on, but given the romantic, understated appeal that the aesthetic brings, I think that's a crime. Summertime is made for a bit of escapism, and that's exactly what cottagecore brings.

If you're not ready to give up on cottagecore either, these 10 summer dresses perfectly capture the dreamy essence of the aesthetic.
