National Dress Day


 

National Dress Day, which is observed every March 6, is a celebration of the wardrobe workhorse, which has been worn by ancient Egyptians, elegant Victorians, Hollywood starlets and everyday women alike. National Dress Day was first founded by fashion designer Ashley Lauren in 2016 to celebrate the cultural significance of the dress — but more important, the personal connections people have with them.

That is why National Dress Day celebrates more than just a garment — it honours the stories, traditions and personal milestones that dresses can often represent. Whether it's a simple T-shirt dress you wore to your son's kindergarten graduation or the elaborately beaded gown you wore on your wedding day, dresses hold a special place in our lives and memories. This day encourages us to pay tribute to those cherished memories.
