11 Easter Dresses and Outfits That Are Perfectly on Trend

Easter Sunday may have a more formal dress code than your typical workplace or after-hours watering hole, but that doesn't mean you should completely abandon your personal style for the holiday. There are a plethora of looks that are both appropriate for family gatherings and religious ceremonies, and are on-trend. I pulled pieces from my favorite designers that channel eleven of our favorite spring trends — and they happen to be decorous enough to satisfy the relatives. Whether you're hunting for Easter eggs with your nieces and nephews or preparing a perfect Sunday brunch, these looks have you covered.
