Italy is a magical place. It’s one of those bucket list must see places. Full of history, art, architecture, picturesque villages and vineyards, and blue sparkling waters of the Mediterranean Sea it’s no wonder a visit to Italy is on the agenda for thousands of people this summer. If you’re preparing for a trip you’re probably looking for what to wear in Italy in the summer. Personally, I love a sundress in the summer. It’s easy to pack, light-weight, easy to style and feminine. Perfect for a summer vacation in Italy. If you’re looking for what to Italy in the summer below are the perfect dresses to pack for trips to Florence, Rome and the Amalfi Coast of Italy.
Dresses for Florence and Tuscany
Florence was one of my favorite places in Italy. The city is so lively and full of art, history, culture, architecture and amazing food and wine. Tuscany is also just a short way away from Florence so you can easily make a day trip there. I found Florence and Tuscany very romantic and ethereal so I opted for very feminine pieces. These dresses can be dressed up or dressed down. You could pair these dresses with sneakers while you’re exploring during the day or with heeled sandals for an evening out.

Dresses for Rome
Rome is full of things to see and to do. There is amazing architecture to see all over so unless you’re doing a bus tour you’ll be doing a ton of walking to see all of the sights and navigating the crowds. There isn’t a ton of greenery in Rome so with all the pavement the heat radiates and the temperature can get to be pretty sweltering. For Rome specifically I would opt for light weight dresses in breathable fabrics to stay cool. If your planning on visiting any churches or religious spots you’re required to cover up your shoulders so remember to pack a lightweight cardigan to cover your shoulders and opt for one of the midi length dresses to cover your knees.

Dresses for the Amalfi Coast
The Amalfi Coast is heaven on earth. With pastel multicolored towns, sky high coastal cliffs and mesmerizing turquoise waters it’s the perfect place to visit on your summer vacation. I would opt for breathable and flowy fabrics here as well. I opted for some festive blue and yellow hues evoking the coast’s famous lemons and the blue Mediterranean sea.
