The Graduation Dress Edit: 2025’s Prettiest White Dresses
Timeless whites, perfect fits, and all the energy you need for graduation season.
Graduation season is officially here, and if you haven’t found the dress yet, don’t panic. We’ve pulled together our favourite white dresses of 2025 that feel fresh, flattering, and worthy of the moment. There’s something kind of iconic about the all-white graduation look. Maybe it’s the clean, polished vibe it gives off or the way it pops in every single photo. But more than anything, it’s that it just feels like a celebration. And in case no one’s said it yet - you deserve to look amazing for your walk across that stage.
This year’s graduation dresses are still grounded in the classics (strapless minis and broderie anglaise), but they’re getting a 2025 glow-up. We’re seeing the return of rosette details, flirty drop waists, crisp cotton poplin, and the most flattering halterneck cuts. Think less “formal” and more “cool-girl with something to celebrate.” The vibe is clean and curated - like you just threw it on but still somehow nailed it. Pair your pick with strappy heels or a little kitten heel and a touch of soft-glam makeup. You’ll feel confident, comfortable, and (most importantly) like yourself. And yes, every dress on our Sortd wishlist will still work for post-grad drinks, dinner with the fam, or that beach trip you’ve got planned right after finals. You only graduate once — may as well make the outfit count.
White dresses you’ll actually want to wear, and rewear after the big day.
To make the whole outfit stress-free, we’ve curated a wishlist of our favourite white graduation dresses of 2025. These picks are trending right now and actually wearable beyond the ceremony - think brunches, birthday dinners, and all the summer plans you’ve got lined up.
