There is something so flattering about a scallop hem and over the winter I picked up two dresses with this pretty detail – one in Hunter green and one in a deep maroon. And I can always tell I really like something when I choose it for special occasions – the green one for my birthday drinks and the red one for Valentine’s Day date night. However, both of these dresses are long sleeve and for a Summer without air conditioning (hello England) they are a bit too much. Thus I am on the hunt for pieces which a chic scallop hem that are not overly warm:
1 | J. Crew Eyelet Skirt in Rich Saffron
2 | Lily Pulitizer Colette Scallop Hem Skort
3 | Vineyard Vines Seersucker Scallop Hem Stretch Cotton Shell in Deep Bay
4 | kate spade new york Contrast Scalloped Plunge One Piece Swimsuit
5 | See by Chloe Scallop Sleeve Tee in Ink Navy
6 | Foxiedox Ellingtone Embroidered Lace Dress in Royal Blue
7 | BB Dakota Eyelet Blouse in Blue/White
And some other honorable mentions include these four white numbers Bleu by Rod Beattie I’ve Got an Eye for You Cover-Up Tunic, this adorable Lily Pulitizer Lexa Off-The-Shoulder Dress along with this Temptation Positano Quito Lace Miniskirt and this chic but pricy Rebecca Taylor Sleeveless Mina Eyelet Dress in Milk. As I mentioned, options for all seasons but there are a ton of chic options in stock that you can have delivered right to your door! And now for the dress I mentioned in the intro – here is a shot of the Hunter green number in Vienna from our trip last Fall and I checked, it is still available and you can find it here, Laser Cut Scalloped Trim Belted Dress.

It’s a tie for me if I like the bathing suits or the dress better.
Might just have to get both.
Emily says
Such a classy look.
Glad it is coming back and really like the options you choose 😊

Too funny, I just saw someone with a navy scalloped bathing suit. The scallop was around the straps in the front and a straight line on the back and it was stunning.
Wasn’t sure if the trend was back as I remember for a while it was a big look for shorts.
Glad it is back!

I love the scallop hem look! They’re beautiful, and perfect for summer. That dark green dress in your photo is beautiful!

This Scallop trend can work for any season except winter. I love it. Out of all of the items here the blue dress is a screaming buy. Today is a travel to the office day. Today’s outfit is a flower dress with my pink high heel sandals. Rest of the week is work from home for me.
