24 incredibly chic summer dresses from Canadian brands

Let’s talk about summer dresses for a minute. As a shopping editor (and a dress enthusiast), I believe that a good mini/midi/maxi dress is one of the best investments you can make in your wardrobe. Why? It can be worn anywhere! Unlike jeans or a T-shirt, a cute dress is appropriate for work, date nights, weddings and more.

This summer, I am consciously trying to buy from Canadian brands. Fortunately, there are a ton of local brands and retailers with a host of cute picks for the season, including Simons, Aritzia and Dynamite.

Ahead, I’ve listed some of the best summer dresses I’ve come across on my Canadian fashion journey, with prices starting under $100. Whether you’re prioritizing Canadian brands this summer or simply want a wardrobe refresh, keep scrolling to shop my top picks.
