White throw-on dresses have always been, and will forever remain, a perennial summer staple. Effortless, timeless and always chic, it’s no surprise that Gwyneth Paltrow is among the first to revisit the hero item this season. She chose an elegant button-down midi, complete with a shirt-inspired silhouette, short sleeves and a softly flared skirt that added a polished energy to the summery style.

Not stopping there, Gwyneth gave her little white dress a fresh update, draping a sky-blue knit casually around her waist and stepping into a pair of tonal baby-blue peep-toe mules.

This icy shade of blue is quickly emerging as one of the season’s defining colours. Light and optimistic, it brings a sense of energy to an outfit without overwhelming it. Pairing beautifully with crisp neutrals like white, whilst also lifting deeper tones. Seen across spring/summer collections, this frosty hue already feels synonymous with the season ahead. And when styled with a classic white dress, it offers an easy way to make a timeless piece feel newly relevant.
