Six Banana Republic Dresses

- June 1, 2023
We have so enjoyed shopping at Banana Republic the last couple years. The dresses, tops, pants and accessories all have a classic yet safari inspired vibe. The company has certainly gone back to its roots with their new brand identity and we love it! We discovered that Banana Republic originated when owners Mel & Patricia Ziegler opened their first store in 1978. It was called Banana Republic – Travel & Safari Clothing Company. Their clothing was originally displayed in hand drawn catalogs and definitely featured well made clothing in neutral colors with a safari or surplus store flair. In 1983 the company was purchased by Gap and the direction of the brand changed.
Today Banana Republic features classic but edgy, safari inspired clothing utilizing feminine details like ruffles, or chic one shoulder dresses, and summer fabrics like silk, linen and summer weight cashmere. We both appreciate well made clothing in a neutral palette which makes getting ready in the morning so much easier! Banana Republic has so many styles that fit this description.
A big benefit of this brand is they offer regular, tall and petite sizing for many of their clothing choices! For my petite friends who work so hard to find clothing that fits them this is a major win!!!
Banana Republic offers clothing for both men and women, baby & toddler and even home! BR Atelier which is a personalized styling service offers a dedicated stylist to assist the customer who has no time to shop or is uncomfortable making clothing decisions.
Six Banana Republic Dresses
The new summer inspiration is called “Where The Desert Meets The Sea”! The collection does not disappoint and features feminine silk and linen dresses, midi and maxi dresses, and cocktail dresses. They also offer cozy linen pants, lightweight sweaters, gorgeous shoes and bags and it goes without mentioning….jewelry we are obsessed with.
We want to share with you a roundup of the dresses we love from this fabulous brand and some styling options all available at Banana Republic! We shared a precious post about the dress options we are featuring here.
Banana Republic Selene Embroidered Midi Dress
This dress is so romantic and feminine! We absolutely love the flirty layers and the lace accents. Wear the dress to dinner, a wedding shower or any other casual event. This dress is made of cotton voile and is available in white also. Great news…both dresses are on sale! The black Selene dress is $159.99 and the white Selene dress $69.97!! Bev is wearing an XS.
Banana Republic Ramie Pintuck Dress
Available in Arctic Sky Blue, Dark Olive Green and White…this dress is a winner. Light and airy for those hot and humid days that most certainly will be here shortly. The fabrications of sheer ramie and the pin tuck detail adds to the design of the dress. Val is wearing an XS.
Banana Republic Botanica Embroidered Linen Mini Dress

It is difficult to see the beautiful detail on the side of the dress but just click the link above and you will see why we fell in love with this dress. This dress would look beautiful with a pump or sandals like Bev has on. The linen fabric will help you stay cool but yet stylish for most events. Bev is wearing an XS.
