Working at Who What Wear gives you a sixth sense about the products that will be sell-outs—it’s practically in our job descriptions to find cult items that are actually worth investing in the moment they land on new-in sections. One item we think is destined to be hugely popular this summer is a £55 T-shirt dress from COS. I’ve not seen anyone wearing it yet. However, Monikh put it in her shopping picks, I included it in my weekly shopping edit and Joy Montgomery featured it in this week’s What to Buy Now—three clear signs that it is a mighty good dress. The dress has an oversize fit and falls on the calf, with boxy shoulders and slits on the side of each skirt. It currently is available in black, off-white and the colour of 2021, hot pink.
COS makes even boring basics desirable with its focus on cut and proportions. This is basically just a very big T-shirt, but the oversize but uncomplicated shape makes it an elegant, easy item to wear for any summer plans. I’d pair it with chunky sandals (I’d go for a pair of leather fishermans), gold hoop earrings and an oversize tote bag ready for any summer picnics. Keep scrolling to see the dress and more throw-on summer dresses we love from COS.
