As we inch closer to steamy summer temperatures and warm-weather outings, in tow comes the need to nail down outfits that feel breathable and look put together. An easy-to-throw-on summer style that requires minimal effort is, hands down, an airy dress, and one silhouette always makes a comeback — the maxi dress.

Taylor Swift recently stepped out in New York City wearing a scoop-neck black maxi dress accessorized with a black belt, black slide-on sandals, and black sunglasses for an almost entirely monochromatic outfit until she opted for a brown crossbody bag and gold jewelry. Whether or not you consider yourself a Swiftie, Taylor is certainly onto something with this ensemble — it’s carefree, lightweight, and falls into the timeless category of the LBD. Not only is a black dress an evergreen closet staple, but the maxi length makes it a transitional piece that can be worn even into the fall during chillier temperatures.

Inspired by Swift’s cool-girl summer style, we found eight similar maxi dresses that will be your airy, warm-weather go-to.
