There is certainly no shortage of heavy-hitting players on the fashion scene who incorporated this winning duo into their looks for pre-fall 2025. From Gabriela Hearst’s sun-drenched, knitted midi dress, paired with her bold and bright Ohio sneaker, to Proenza Schouler’s layered tank dress, worn alongside a colorblocked kick, contemporary designers solidified the notion that ultra-stylish dresses deserve equally cool sneakers as counterparts.
Even celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Dakota Johnson, Emily Ratajkowski, and Rihanna have been seen sporting this simple outfit idea on the street. It’s the laidback, East-meets-West coast way of dressing—that emphasizes comfort with good taste and makes this combination so undeniably appealing. Pro tip: It also doesn’t hurt to have a trending sneaker in the mix, to amp up something as minimal as a slinky slip or fitted mini dress, as these women so often prove.
So whether you’re eying a crisp, shirtdress or have a fluid, floral maxi ready for checkout, be sure to add a coordinating sneaker to match. You’ll find we are relying heavily on retro sneakers at the moment, with plenty of white, minimalist favorites included in the edit. And the real kicker? All of these dress and sneaker pairings can be worn as is now, then layered with your favorite trench coat or jacket later, when the temperatures start to turn to fall.
Below, shop 26 best sneakers to wear with dresses to complete your summer capsule shopping. Mix and match as you like.
