What is a lawn dress?

A lawn dress is a loose, lightweight dress typically made from a cotton or linen fabric. It is usually worn in warm weather and is designed to be comfortable and airy. Lawn dresses are often sleeveless or have short sleeves and may have a gathered skirt or a more fitted silhouette. They are often decorated with floral prints or other summery patterns and may be trimmed with lace or other embellishments. Lawn dresses can be dressed up or down and are suitable for a variety of occasions, from casual outings to more formal events.
