10 summer dresses at Walmart that could totally pass for designer — starting at just $6

Have you ever seen a happier summer frock? This green and white floral pattern reminds us a lot of this $190 Boden dress that’s over 5x the price. The added belt of this v-neck style makes it oh-so-flattering, while the cap sleeves can take you from the office to post-work dinner. 

Boho crochet dresses like this Free People number ($118) are having a major moment this summer, and this piece is the best of both worlds. Unlike other crochet dresses, this style is lined and only features the fabric at the top, so you won’t feel too exposed. At just $36, you can grab one in white and one in pink. 

Another major designer trend we’re seeing all over this summer? V-necks. While scoop and crewnecks are classic, there’s nothing more flattering and low-key sexy than a V-neck — like with this flowy bohemian maxi dress. Depending on what shoes you pair it with, it’s both elegant and casual. 

If we didn’t know any better, we’d say this preppy striped dress jumped right out of a J.Crew catalog (case in point: this pricey frock). It’s ideal for those super hot summer days thanks to the breathable 100% cotton fabric. Plus, the billowy flare skirt will make you feel like nautical royalty. 

Found: A simple black tank dress for $13 that’s right at home in the celeb-favorite quiet luxury trend. Crafted from super-soft jersey fabric, you’ll be reaching for this dress every day. Throw this on and pretend you’re hiding from the paparazzi on a Starbucks run — no one has to know that it’s not this $1,290 dress from The Row. 

This tropical number from Sofia Vergara’s Walmart line looks like an expensive Farm Rio dress and deserves a spot in your vacation wardrobe. The actress knew what she was doing by pairing the flowy skirt and ruffles with a bold summer pattern. Lean into the trendy off-the-shoulder style for a romantic dinner on the beach or pull it up over your shoulders if you want more daytime coverage. (There are pockets, too!)

Dainty eyelet fabric is everywhere you look (get it?) right now — no matter if you’re on the city streets or at a resort. This under $40 dress embodies the feminine trend perfectly thanks to the universally flattering fit-and-flare silhouette. It’s also super breezy, which is ideal for sunny days. Honestly, you can wear it everywhere (except maybe a wedding!). 

Believe it or not, this isn’t that Reformation dress you’ve seen all over social media that retails for nearly $300. This option — only $6! — comes in a handful of colors and features the sweetest tiered skirt and puff sleeves. We highly suggest throwing it on if you want to feel like you’re summering on the Amalfi Coast. 

Ever since Sofia Richie Grainge wore a Chanel halter dress at her 2023 wedding, you can’t escape the flattering style — and we’re not complaining about it. Perfect for your next event, this Reformation-inspired dress features soft ruching at the front to streamline everything and a ruffle hem for a fun, flirty vibe. Oh, and did we mention it’s $300 less than its designer lookalike? 

With buttons that run from top to bottom and a removable tie at the waist, this linen style is the perfect way to lean into the utility dress trend. (It’s also super lightweight for those humid summer days.) Even though the look is hot right now, it’s effortlessly timeless so you can pull it out year after year. And those tie sleeves? So cute.
