There are few things chicer than an Elsa Hosk outfit. Any fashion editor can confirm. She often combines multiple of-the-moment trends into one outfit and does so in the most effortless of ways. The latest summer trends she combined made for an easy outfit I highly recommend copying.
For starters, the summer 2026 dress trend Hosk wore was a sleep dress. In case you’re wondering why, exactly, people are wearing sleep dresses outside, let me explain. It’s basically a term given to loose-fitting, unstructured summer dresses with pretty, vintage-inspired details such as ruffled trim, bows, and eyelet. If you were to actually sleep in a dress, this style would be a good one to do so in. They’re often white (as Hosk’s was) but certainly don’t need to be. With her puff-sleeve sleep dress, Hosk wore the closed-toe shoe trend (sorry, sandals) I want to make sure is on your radar: bright blue flats. It may seem a bit specific, but ocean-adjacent shades such as aquamarine and cerulean are a major color theme this summer, and flat shoes are one of the forms in which people are embracing it.
