In the market now, refreshed colorways—cherry red, baby pink, and soft beige—join new silhouettes and details that reimagine the classic motif. Think Dôen’s demure clusters of dots, Junya Watanabe’s sculptural draping, or Christopher John Rogers’s bold, abstract interpretations. Elsewhere, Posse offers a strappy cotton style in rich chocolate brown—ideal for beach days to come—while Zara delivers an airy maxi fit for any spring soirée.

For classic black-and-white iterations, turn to Tory Burch, Tom Ford, and Emilia Wickstead. For a more accessible take, look to Cos, Mango, and Lisa Says Gah. Darling, dainty, and occasionally daring, these are the polka-dot dresses to wear this spring—each with the runway stamp of approval.
