25 Non-Bridal White Dresses

The little black dress has undoubtedly solidified its place as an iconic fashion piece, but these white dresses make it clear that the LBD has some stiff competition thanks to the gorgeous LWD.

The old-fashioned ideas that white dresses should be reserved for a woman's wedding, or the even more nonsensical "no white after Labor Day" rule, have officially been abolished (at least in the fashion world). It's a good thing they no longer apply, because these white dresses are truly stunning.

Whether you choose a crisp, stark white dress, or a more subtle ivory option, white is always a great minimalist option, both for evening wear and more casual events. These white dresses will definitely have you swooning.
