Farm-ready.

9.0K

The trailer for Little Women came out earlier this week, and we’re all expecting prairie dresses to pop up everywhere. The trend has already been on the rise, with celebrities such as Margot Robbie and Selena Gomez rocking them on the red carpet and fashion influencers such as Reese Blutstein getting snapped in them at Fashion Week. With high necks, puffed up sleeves and ruffles, prairie dresses are a little bit Victorian, very Western and a whole lot of chic.

Whether you’re looking for patterned or monochrome prairie dresses, or even something a little bit more unique, we rounded up our favorites that you can buy right now. Take a look below for our selects from Coach, Fendi, Bottega Veneta, GANNI and more so you can start living your Little Women dreams.

Monochrome and Minimalist

If you want to let the prairie dress silhouette do the statement-making, it’s best to keep it simple and choose monochrome or color-blocked pieces. Add accessories to bring the dress to life or let the dress be the focus by keeping it minimalistic.
