As someone who owns more dresses than I care to admit, I like to think of myself as somewhat of an expert. While there are certainly some very fun dress trends out

there right now, including Versace-inspired "under the sea" looks, not everyone wants to spend money on of-the-moment items. If you fancy yourself more of a classic dresser, you've come to the right place. 

Below, I rounded up 5 of my favorite dress trends that I think will stand the test of time. Need proof? One trend used to be buzzy because of Marilyn Monroe and then went on to make headlines thanks to Meghan Markle over 60 years later. Scroll down to shop 5 dress trends you won't regret in 10 years.
