The five coolest honeycomb dresses that best combine with espadrilles this summer

Posted on 21 June 2026

If there is a comfortable and easy garment to wear in summer, it is the dress. Fresh, versatile and capable of solving any look effortlessly, there are certain designs that come back year after year because they really work. One of them is the dress with a 'honeycomb' body, characterized by that elastic gathering that adapts to the body comfortably without being rigid or uncomfortable.

The most elegant women over 50 have been opting for this type of dresses for years because they combine comfort and sophistication in equal parts. I myself have been using them for more than two decades and style references such as Vicky Martín Berrocal or Ángela Molina have shown season after season that they continue to be an infallible basic when the heat and flat sandals arrive. But if there is graphic proof of how present these designs are in summer, it is that they are already blooming in the catalogs of our favorite stores.

At Zara we find a renewed version of the honeycomb that focuses on the waist area, enhancing the silhouette. This combined with the cool fabric and the super versatile gingham print make this dress a textbook 24/7 for 35.95 euros.
