Orange linen dresses

An orange linen dress is basically golden hour you can wear. All those warm terracotta, spice and sunset tones look made for hot places and long summer evenings, and on linen, with its soft, sun-bleached texture, the whole thing feels like a vacation. Burnt orange is the one everyone's reaching for, deep, earthy and quietly gorgeous, while brighter oranges and red-orange bring the full zest. Warm and easy to wear, it's the color that makes you look like you've caught the sun. Sizes 0 to 16, next-day US delivery.

Sun-warmed and holiday-ready

Orange linen has vacation written all over it. The warm tones come alive in the sun, so this is the dress for the trips where the light is good and the pace is slow, a whitewashed-village escape, sundowners at a beach bar, a wander through a warm, buzzy city, a long dinner as the sun drops. Styling wants to stay warm and easy: tan or cognac sandals, a woven or raffia bag, and gold jewelry that plays into the sunset thing. Layer a cream linen shirt or a tan suede jacket over the top when the evening cools. Burnt orange loves tan, cream and gold; a brighter orange can take a hit of white or even pink if you're feeling bold.

Warm shades, easy cuts

Orange runs from deep to bright. Burnt orange, terracotta and rust are the earthy, wear-anywhere end, gorgeous with tan and denim; brighter orange and red-orange are punchy and fun, made for full summer. On cut, a relaxed shirt dress or shift is the easy, throw-on vacation staple, a strapless or sleeveless style is built for heat, and a wrap flatters and adjusts to fit. Feeling playful? Orange and pink together is the of-the-moment clash, and orange florals are pure summer.
