Get her look with these square-neck dresses from $32
The weather is finally starting to warm, so it’s time to break out spring dresses. And Mindy Kaling just reminded us of the flattering dress style you likely don’t have in your closet yet.
In a recent Instagram post, the actress and producer announced the latest release from her book studio, Friends in Napa by Sheila Yasmin Marikar, and she wore a square-neck dress in a bold royal blue with ruching along the straps and waist.
Square-neck dresses are always flattering, as they create the illusion of a taller neck and provide great coverage for those with larger chests. The boxy neckline is also an elegant detail.
If you don’t already have a square-neck dress in your closet, Amazon is packed with so many cute styles that you can wear all summer long — and they start at just $32. Keep reading to shop our favorites.

Amegoya Square-Neck Floral Midi Dress
Stars like Reese Witherspoon are wearing short-sleeve dresses this spring, and you can get in on the trend with this design by Amegoya. The short sleeves are a bit warmer than a tank top or strapless dress without feeling too constrictive — plus you can layer the dress underneath lightweight jackets and coats. The ruffle hem and Swiss dot design are timeless and elegant. One five-star reviewer called the material “soft” and “comfortable.”
Prettygarden Puff-Sleeve Floral Midi Dress
Kaling wore a floral puff-sleeve dress last spring, and this midi style by Prettygarden is right on trend. The floral pattern feels elegant, making it a great choice for weddings, baby showers, and work events. The square neck has ruching for added visual interst. And the puff sleeves can be worn on or off your shoulders — your choice!
For those who already have scoop-neck and V-neck dresses, consider switching things up with these Kaling-inspired square-neck options, which are all available at Amazon for under $60.
