A pastel doesn’t have to be too vibrant. With mid and late summer, take a dress that will go from summer to early autumn. A dress in neutral taupe or mild colors will be ideal for midsummer. The colors are neutral and will match many formal occasions. Midsummer vintage dresses wouldn’t be complete without the oh-so popular Titanic style in neutral sage and pink.

It’s all in the Length

While many midsummer vintage dresses are tea-length or longer, you can have a shorter dress that’s still vintage. Take lace and embroidered elements that keep the dress looking the era. Choose dresses that have quintessential styles of the era, whether the dress is short or not. This will also keep the legs cool throughout the summer.

Keep the Colors

Truly authentic midsummer vintage dresses will not necessarily be light-colored. While traditional white and ivory dresses are quite cool, a light chiffon will do the trick. Dresses in burgundy, green, blue, and black can still be perfect midsummer vintage dresses. Best for transitioning the wearer into fall.
