This post is all about dreamy cottagecore dresses…
It’s officially that time of the year when everything seems new and fresh and exciting. And that is everything that the cottage-core aesthetic embraces! I say this because if you know anything about this aesthetic, you know that one of the biggest parts about it is the love of floral prints. And what’s more fresh and exciting than flowers?
Before I even begin jumping into the post. I want to tackle the question that some of you may be wondering. What is cottagecore?
Cottagecore is this really unique, really amazing aesthetic (but it’s kinda hard to describe!). Think about if you were transported into one of those old fairytales. The ones filled with princesses and adventure. This aesthetic plays on that wish we’ve all had to be a part of a fairytale.
It’s an aesthetic that is about embracing femininity. Everything about the cottagecore aesthetic is light and airy and it’s about picking pieces of clothing that make you feel almost magical.
Ethereal Cottagecore Dresses that You Didn’t Know You Needed
1. White Lace Off-the-Shoulder Midi Dress
White lacy dresses just scream cottagecore to me. It also doesn’t hurt that white lacy dresses are always really cute, it’s always a hit with them. Especially if you’re going for a look that’s soft and feminine…
2. Floral Tie-Strap Maxi Dress
I love this dress and all dresses like it. Not only is it the perfect cottagecore aesthetic dress but it is also a dress that is perfect for spring or summer…
3. Pink Tulle Off-The-Shoulder Dress
Anything tulle or fluffy or light and airy is perfect for the cottagecore aesthetic. I mean can’t you picture yourself in some sort of fairytale in this dress?
4. Green Gingham Maxi Dress
Gingham print always reminds me of Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. So I’ve always associated it with fun times and adventure.
5. Vintage Style Flower Dress
Everything that is cottagecore feels so old timey (okay maybe I shouldn’t say old timey, more like it’s a style that is not exactly timeless but it exists outside time). The style is about embracing dreaminess and this dress does exactly that!
6. White Floral Dress
This is the quintessential cottagecore dress. Like if you went and googled “cottagecore dresses” right now, you’d get some version of this dress. It’s popular in this aesthetic for a reason (it’s super cute!)…
7. Dreamy Mesh Mini Dress
This poufy mesh dress looks like it’s straight from a dream! You could fit right in at a fairy party if you were invited to one. Okay that’s the nerd in me speaking but you can’t lie, this dress is seriously cute!

Every girl at some point or another wants to feel like she’s the main character in a movie and this dress definitely gives off main character vibes!

This dress feels like the quintessential cottagecore dress, like something Cinderella would wear (before the fairy-god-mother came and bippidy bopped over everything of course).

Somehow this dress is both cute and trendy but also fully cottagecore vibes. Not that the two are mutually exclusive or anything, just that literally anyone can wear this dress and look really cool!
18. Pastel Purple Gingham Dress
Love the concept of a pastel gingham print dress. I don’t know, it’s weirdly soothing to the eyeballs. Please tell me you get were I’m coming from!
19. Dark Floral Mesh Off The Shoulder Midi Dress

Princess mode activated. Literally. That’s the only thing you’re allowed to feel in a dress like this, it’s gorgeous!
