Hands Down, This Is the Comfiest Dress Trend You Can Wear in Fall

While there’s a range of top-notch fall dress trends entering the spotlight this season, there’s one specific silhouette that will undoubtedly take the prize for the comfiest (and chicest) option. Yep, I’m talking about the sweaterdress—particularly those ribbed and oversize styles.
Cozy in nature with knitted (and sometimes knit-jersey) fabric, a sweaterdress or ribbed dress is one of the most versatile fall staples out there because you can team a neutral pick with just about any pair of shoes or layering piece to create an A+ ’fit. So if you don’t have one in your offering yet, perhaps this is the time. On that note, we scrolled through a range of sites to uncover the best sweaterdresses out there for your consideration. Keep scrolling to check them out, along with outfit inspiration scattered throughout as well.
