R.Vivimos Knit Pencil Dress with Tied Waist
The sweater dress is a timeless wardrobe essential that comes back year after year — and lately, it’s found celeb fans like Kelly Clarkson and Gisele Bündchen. This one, which comes in sizes S–XXL and 32 colors, has a slightly slouchy silhouette with a high crewneck, long sleeves with elasticized cuffs, and a stylish tied detail at the waist.
Bubfee Long-Sleeve Maxi Dress with Belt, $33 with Prime
This long-sleeve maxi dress is a similar, fall-appropriate version of an emerald green dress that Joanna Gaines wore to an event this summer. “It is a simple, classy look, and I received several compliments,” raved a shopper, who also called it “very soft” and “well made.”
Kipfall Long-Sleeve Shirt Dress with Ruffle Hem
Reese Witherspoon wore a long-sleeve shirt dress recently, so now we want to wear one, too. This one is designed with a straight point collar, half placket, barrel cuffs, and a ruffled hem.
Wneedu Long-Sleeve Sweater Dress with Pockets
If you’ve been looking for a little black dress for fall events, this fit-and-flare sweater dress with a mismatched ribbed-knit pattern is the stylish piece your closet’s been missing. Dress it up with heeled booties, or wear it casually with sneakers.
Poliru Puff-Sleeve Denim Dress with Bow
Puff sleeves and an oversized tied bow lend this denim fit-and-flare dress stylish flair. One reviewer, who received the dress for free in exchange for testing, said it’s “perfect for brunch with the girls or an afternoon date,” adding that it’s “a must-have for a cute and effortless summer or fall look.”
Prettygarden Ruched Long-Sleeve Maxi Dress
We’ve had our eyes on a light brown, long-sleeve ruched maxi dress ever since Oprah Winfrey wore one in April — and this one checks all our boxes. It has a crew neckline, fitted bodice, and flared maxi skirt, and it’s finished with convenient side pockets.
Anrabess Long-Sleeve Midi Wrap Dress
Florals for fall? They’re definitely groundbreaking, especially in darker hues. This floral dress is an ideal choice for fall weddings, thanks to the V-neckline, front wrap silhouette, and midi length that shows off strappy heels.
Endless Rose Striped Knit Mini Dress
Go for a fashionable, preppy look in this sweater dress with wide horizontal stripes and gold button details at the hips. It’s finished with a V-neckline, polo collar, and long sleeves, and it comes in sizes XS–XL.
The Drop Ruffle-Neck Tiered Mini Dress
With a subtly oversized fit, ruffled V-neckline, and tiered skirt, this mini dress is a versatile addition to your fall closet. You can “dress [it] up with sandals and jewelry or down with cute sneakers and a jean jacket,” one happy shopper pointed out.
