15 Chic All-White Outfits for All of Your Summer Adventures

The no-white-after-Labor-Day rule has never made much sense to us—who would actually say no to a white cashmere winter ensemble? But even though the bright neutral looks amazing all year long, we can't deny what a perfect match it is for summer, especially with the free feeling the season brings. It’s time to get reacquainted with one of the most precarious yet irresistibly chic fashion equations: the all-white outfit. 

An all-white outfit provides a clean, crisp aesthetic that can be casual as a coordinated lounge set or elevated with a mixture of textures such as linen, lace, chiffon, and knits. Even with a minimalist, monochromatic palette, you'll find endlessly creative ways to wear the color across occasions, price points, and style sensibilities. Ahead, 15 all-white outfits show just how versatile monochromatic styling can be.

The One-Piece Swimsuit

A sunny day at the beach calls for an equally bright one-piece. Cover up with a lightweight pair of loose pants, and your ensemble is ready to go from coastline to an afternoon iced coffee run.

The Mini Dress

Consider this a foolproof ensemble for any day. Pair a breezy mini dress with timeless Converse sneakers and an accessory with a subtle print.

The Nap Dress

Wearing a Nap Dress, which first got popular last year amidst the rise in cottagecore trends but remains an easy staple today, can lead to midsummer dreams or, more likely, tossing on a pair of sandals and heading out for your next weekend brunch. 

The White Jeans

White denim, a slinky tank, and a sleek pair of mules: this is the easy all-white outfit for summer we return to again and again, whether for dates or a night out.

The Denim Shorts

Give cut-off shorts a preppy appearance with a knit polo and striped tote bag. It’s an ensemble perfect for hitting the road for your next weekend getaway.

The Wrap Dress

Flip flops may be summer’s most casual shoes, but they look elevated and modern when paired with a classic wrap dress in a coordinating color.

The Button-Down

Style your button-down however you'd like to personalize this all-white outfit. For instance, you can tuck it into wide-leg jeans for a classic look or tie the shirt up for something a bit more summery.

The Micro Print

If stark white is not your taste, an alternative to an all-white ensemble is a nearly entirely monochromatic palette with a mini floral print. Complete the combination with a sweet, strappy sandal.

The Romper

Take the sporty jumpsuit trend for a spin in a bright, white hue. Like other athleisure looks, this one is instantly ready for a yoga class or to be paired with mod frames for a sunny midday stroll.

The Lounge Set

Never underestimate the importance of a cozy loungewear set. This one’s made of recycled materials and makes for a perfect new addition to your collection, especially in a soft bone hue.

The Evening Look

Stand out at your next cocktail event in this white, sequin dress that truly sparkles. For an added bit of shine, add white gold hoop earrings.

The Beach Dress

A boho beach dress is practically made for a chunky, vacation-ready pair of Birkenstocks. The combination is comfortable and practical but looks almost ethereal as an all-white outfit.

The Summer Maxi

This clean-lined maxi dress is stunning, especially from the back with its strap detailing. Instead of using overpowering accessories, stick to a singular, shell earring for romantic, summery vibes. 

The Bikini

A swimsuit silhouette as special as this one by Isa Boulder usually deserves to shine sans cover-up. But for this gauzy, minimalist sarong in a matching white, we’ll make an exception.

The Linen Set

A matching set takes all the guesswork out of styling an all-white outfit. This one is versatile and can be dressed up for a party or thrown on with a pair of comfortable espadrilles.
