With spring right around the corner and an upcoming vacation, I was so excited to be invited to preview the Lilly Pulitzer Spring collection! And now I finally get to share it with you! It’s officially live online! YAY! From their classic beautiful dresses to fun tops and even a swimsuit I can’t stop thinking about, y’all are going to fall in love! Let’s get this Lilly Pulitzer Spring try on started!
Lilly Pulitzer Spring Try On
Last week, I visited my local Richmond Lilly Pulitzer store for a little spring collection preview. And y’all, I loved so many items!! Whether you’re looking for more casual everyday items or the perfect special ocassion dress, I found so many goodies for y’all!
My Sizing
For reference, I’m 5’7 1/2″ with a short torso and very long legs! I typically wear a 28/29 in jeans or a size 8. My bra size is a 36C, and I typically wear a size medium (or 8) top.
If you ever have any question about what size I’m wearing, check the links below each image! I list my size and any recommendations I have for sizing up or down for quick reference. (TTS= true to size!) For full details, I’ll be chatting all about quality, style, and fit in the paragraphs above each photo.
White Lace Maxi Dress
This was the very first item I tried on, and y’all I was just blown away! The lace is so beautiful and it’s fully lined. The gold corded embellishments at the neckline make this dress! It’s also super-lightweight and breezy! I can see this making a perfect beach vacation dress or bridal option for any brides-to-be!

Striped Maxi Dress
Out of everything I tried, this dress is one of my top picks! I am a sucker for a classic stripe, and the cut is beautiful! Sweetheart necklines are one of my favorites, and the cup-style tops felt supportive enough to go bra-free. For someone who is not a fan of strapless bras, that is a win in itself! And did you catch the fringe at the straps? Such a fun detail!! The dress is fully lined, has pockets, and is so breezy! This one is coming with me on vacation in a few weeks!
Dress (8 – TTS)
Shift Maxi Dress
I have definitely become more of a maxi dress person, so it was so fun to try on a maxi version of a classic Lilly shift! The placement of the lace trim is so figure-flattering! I love how it comes in at the waistline. And while the material of this one is a little thicker, it still has some stretch to keep it comfortable!

Lattice One-Piece Swimsuit
I wanted to bring this swimsuit home with me so badly! As a black swimsuit aficionada, I give this one my 100% stamp of approval! The quality is amazing. It’s thick and supportive with great booty coverage. I love the deep v cut out and the knotted lattice design! The back also has the lattice with a scoop back! It fits true to size.

Lace Swim Cover Up
Finding a good coverup can be tricky, but this one is perfection. It’s a honeycomb lace that is lightweight and breezy. But I love that it offers a little more coverage than so many white cover ups I have tried before. It’s slightly sheer but not overly see-through! My store only had a large in store, but I would have preferred my typical size medium.
Cover Up (large – stay TTS)
Linen Button Down Top
Another fav right here! I love a classic button down for their versatility and this linen version is wonderful! It has a relaxed fit but still a feminine cut that’s not too oversized. It’s ever-so-slightly sheer but with a flesh-toned bra, you wouldn’t be able to see a thing. I’m wearing an ivory one here, and it barely shows. You could wear this open over a bathing suit, tied at the waist with a skirt, or even just tucked into jeans or shorts! I’m in a medium and like the fit.
Top (medium – TTS)
Embroidered Chambray Top
This top is a great combination of two of my favs: chambray and embroidery! Fit is very relaxed through the body with a balloon sleeve. There is embroidery both at the neckline and on the sleeve. And did you see those tassels? They are such a fun detail! I’m wearing a medium and could have probably sized down to the small. It just depends on the fit and look you’re going for!
Top (medium – oversized fit)
Camisole + Sweater Wrap
A cami like this is one of my wardrobe staples! If pink isn’t your fav, it also comes in white and a classic navy! I’m in a medium and it was pulling very slightly at the bust. I’d recommend sizing up if you’re on the bustier side!
This wrap was another favorite find of mine! It is so crazy soft and makes the perfect topper for so many pieces like this cami to dresses! I love the chic vibe it adds! It is a one-size option that also comes in blue and pink.

Ruffled Mini Dress
So much YES for this mini dress! I.AM.OBSESSED. The cut is fun, flirty, and so comfortable! The top wraps with a button closure, and the waistline is smocked! I adore the sweet ruffles at the skirt too. And it’s not too short on my super long legs! ?All-around win!
Dress (8 – TTS)
Shift Dress
I just love the Multi In Full Bloom print, so I was excited to try it in the shift dress version too! The classic shift dress is one of my favorites from Lilly. I find it so flattering! The neckline is notched with beautiful white embroidery that continues all the way around the collar! It does have some stretch to it! I’m in my typical size 8.
Dress (8 – TTS)
Lace Swing Dress
If you haven’t noticed, I’m all about the lace! This dress is another very lightweight option! It’s fully lined through the body with sheer sleeves and a bell detail! It’s more of a swingy cut, which isn’t always my favorite on me personally. I think I would have preferred a size small to add a little more structure!
Dress (medium – size down)
White Lace Shift Dress
Another beautiful bridal option for a shower or rehearsal dinner! It has a sweetheart neckline with lace overlay! Although Lilly describes this as another one of their stretch shifts, I found it to be much more stiff than the others I tried. I struggled to zip it over my bust! I would suggest sizing up in this one.
Dress (8 – size up)
Romper Maxi Dress
While in the dressing room, I heard some ladies mention a romper maxi. So, I came out and asked about it! And y’all I’m so glad I did! At the top, it has the look of a classic Lilly shift, but it splits around the lower hip to reveal built-in shorts! For a mom who is constantly getting down on the floor with kids, I love that this dress is super-functional while also making me feel glamorous! It’s also a lighter weight material than the classic shifts! Upon recommendation, I sized down one and I like the fit!
Romper (6 – size down)
Romper Mini Dress
After trying the last romper, one of the ladies recommended this one too! It’s another option I missed when browsing, but I’m so glad I tried! It’s the same lightweight material as the last maxi, and it also has built-in shorts! This style of dress is great for everyday. I could see myself wearing it with white sneakers with the kids or wedge sandals for a dressier look. I’m wearing an 8 and like the fit. It’s slightly relaxed!
