When is National Dress Day?

National Dress Day occurs on March 6th.

What is National Dress Day?

Fads come and go, but looking fabulous never gets old. National Dress Day celebrates femininity and empowers women to look their best.

Dresses come in a rainbow of shapes. Every personality and mood has a dress to match, from the casual maxi to the formal gown, the sweaterdress to the fit and flare. That’s good, because every woman is different.

Well-fitting dresses inspire confidence. They can lend a sense of glamour and poise, sometimes even in more casual styles, whether they’re worn to a wedding or the office.

What dress did you wear on your first date, or your first interview? On National Dress Day, we remember those big moments and enjoy the gracefulness our dresses bring wherever we take them.
