Come springtime, we long for simple, effortless pieces to keep us looking pulled-together despite the climbing heat and humidity. And no single article of clothing achieves this better than the polo dress.

Beloved by lady golfers, tennis pros and country-clubbers alike, this cotton classic always looks sharp—even if athletic exertion isn't on your personal agenda. Just consider Margot Tenenbaum, Gwyneth Paltrow's morose (but incredibly chic) character from The Royal Tenenbaums, who made a Lacoste polo dress, an Hermès bag and a knee-length fur coat her uniform.

Click through the slideshow to see how Diane Kruger, Emily Blunt and Leelee Sobieski wore this collared wardrobe staple over the past week—and to shop for a polo dress of your own.

The Lacoste L!ve Pool Party at Coachella last weekend drew tons of celebs, but we especially loved spotting Diane Kruger at the desert event. For the occasion, she picked a color-blocked polo dress—from Lacoste, of course. Click through to shop her look.
