This post rounds up the best websites to buy house dresses for the summer. Summer 2021 is unfortunately going to be another socially distanced and working from home one (insert crying emoji here). In this post I’m rounding up where you can buy house dresses online that are not only incredibly pretty, but are ideal for wearing all day around the house.
What are House Dresses?
Loose fitting cotton dresses ideal for house chores and running errands. Originating in the 19th Century.
I knew long ago this would be the second summer of dresses. They’re easy, beautiful, and any outfit that’s an instant cloud of comfort is A-OK in my books.
But with so many on the market what ones do you choose?
How to Choose the Right House Dress
Choosing the right house dress begins with your style.
I’ve broken down selections based on boho, minimal, affordable, feminine, sustainable, and luxury styles.
But there are 2 things to consider when choosing what brand to buy from:
First of all, cost.
The lifespan of a house dress will be 4 months, maybe stretching into fall if you choose the right colour coming to a grand total of 5 to 6 months.

You’ll then pack them away until next year where the cycle continues.
Because of this you don’t want to spend a lot, but at the same time investing in one or two that are a little more elevated and can stretch way into fall is smart.
Why? Because you won’t feel like you’ve spent a lot less on fashion this year, and it will prevent you from over shopping as you’ll feel satisfied having one or two super special pieces.
How to Wear House Dresses
Think about your lifestyle.
More likely than not we won’t be going to restaurants, bars, or fancy gatherings so opting for a more casual every day dress is imperative right now.
Theres no sense in buying a slim fitting dress that pairs with pumps for a walk around the block.
Where to Buy
Now that you know how to wear house dresses, where do you buy them? Well, from most websites you normally shop at. Just make sure the style is comfortable to wear around your house.
I’ve listed 5 websites you can buy house dresses from based on price, style, and accessibility.
