The point of a sundress was exactly as it sounds - to create a lightweight, sexy dress that could be worn comfortably in warm temperatures. There's a lot of styles but they pretty typically have a bodice, thin straps, are lightweight and worn without any other layers or coverings.
The one I'm wearing is just a loose lingerie-style take on it with matching panties. 🌸
