The Dress Style We're Going to See Everywhere This Fall
One of the best parts of the lead-up to fall (and the impending drop in temperatures to go with it) is pulling out all your favorite cold-weather pieces. As we put our favorite denim cutoffs into storage and begin building our wardrobe for the next season, there’s one dress style in particular that every fashion girl should have: short-sleeve midi dresses.
Looking at the most recent runway shows, we’ve been seeing this dress everywhere, and it’s easy to see why. With its short sleeves and longer skirt, this style is one of the best transitional pieces to stock in your closet. Wear them on their own with a pair of mules while it’s still warm out, and as soon as the cold comes in, style them with tall boots, maybe some tights, and a turtleneck for more coverage.
Ready to add this staple to your wardrobe? Ahead, we scoured the internet for our favorites on the market so you don’t have to. Shop them all below.
The flirty collar and ruffles are ideal for maintaining that free-flowing summer vibe into the colder seasons.
For something on the edgier side, look for metalware details like the zippers on Christopher Kane’s version of the dress.
Wear this dress to the office.Available in sizes XS to L.
Dolce & Gabbana put its spin on this classic vintage-inspired dress with eye-catching embellishments.

Looking for something on the simpler side? Leave it to Jacquemus to make the perfect transitional dress for fall.

For something that can weather the colder months, we love this leather short-sleeve midi dress from Loewe.
Turn some heads in this.Available in UK sizes 4 to 14.
For something you can dress up or down, a printed dress like this one from Carven is an excellent option.
Wear this to any fall weddings you have on the calendar.Available in sizes 0 to 10.
We're ready for you, fall!
