Best Fall Work Dresses 2024

WRITTEN BY KATERYNA LAKOMOVA

What makes the best work dresses? We particularly like midi-length styles, which are perfect for meetings, presentations, and discussions with colleagues. But if you prefer maxi or even mini dresses for special occasions, those can work, too. A well-chosen and styled office dress will always elevate your work wardrobe, especially if it reflects your style.

A sleek and simple business casual dress always leaves a strong impression, regardless of the season. During colder months, a cashmere dress can add a professional touch. Additionally, classic wrap dresses go well with everything from flats to boots and heels, whether you prefer trendy platform styles or minimalist designs.

10 Work Dresses for Fall

The variety of office-appropriate autumn dresses can be overwhelming. In our list, we’ve included ten work dresses for women made from thicker fabrics than our summer choices and versatile enough to handle the range of temperatures that fall typically brings. Adjust your accessories and layering pieces accordingly, and make the most of it!

Off-shoulder Cashmere dress

A minimal midi dress exudes sophistication and is perfect for the workplace. Update your collection with Lisa Yang’s Cashmere Ribbed Dress Nari in a versatile graphite color. Layer a tailored blazer over it, carry a spacious tote, and complete the ensemble with a pair of high-heeled ankle boots.

Knee-Length Ribbed Dress

Knit dresses are perfect for the workplace. Look for longer lengths, higher-cut necklines, and elegant details, such as the Mockneck ribbed dress from FTC Cashmere. This ribbed knit in a delicate beige color works beautifully for winter, especially when paired with a long coat and knee-high boots.

Sleeveless Cashmere Dress

The key to solving most work wardrobe dilemmas is Erika Cavallini’s Knitted Cashmere Dress. It features a simple sleeveless pull-on design with a high neck and a straight silhouette that emphasizes the minimalist appeal of this business dress. Pair it with stylish boots, an oversized blazer, and a chic bag for work, then accessorize with a belt and sturdy boots for the weekend.

Metallic Knit

The Metallic knit dress from House of Dagmar could be the perfect choice for your office party. It's also a great option if you work in a creative environment and have the freedom to mix trends with a professional look. If your workplace doesn't have a strict dress code, give it a try, as metallics and shiny textures are all the rage right now.

Cashmere Mini

If you're a fan of mini dresses but are unsure how to make them suitable for work, consider the Single-sleeve Cashmere dress Alaia. Pair it with an oversized blazer, minimalist boots, and subtle accessories to create a balanced look. Remember that mini dresses might be appropriate for casual gatherings with colleagues and office parties, but for more formal events such as conferences or business meetings, it's better to opt for something longer.

Fit-and-Flare

Bohemian-style dresses have made a comeback, featuring elegant fit-and-flare designs crafted from fine knits. Whether you prefer a defined waist or a subtle flare at the hips, there are numerous fit-and-flare styles suitable for various body shapes and workplace dress codes. Our favorite flared professional dress for women is the Lisa Yang Ribbed-knit cashmere dress Finley.

Sweater Dress

Be prepared for dropping temperatures with a timeless sweater dress. Choose between turtleneck or round-neck styles, like the Ribbed Knit Wool Dress Carla, for a sophisticated look on chilly days. Wear it as it is, or pair it with the tights and ankle boots for an exceptionally snug and work-appropriate ensemble.

Bodycon Midi

The bodycon dress trend is set to make a strong comeback for fall/winter 2024 and will likely continue into spring 2025. When wearing a bodycon dress, it's crucial to select the right fabric and fit. Opt for a bodycon dress made from viscose or fine knit for a sophisticated and polished look. These materials offer a luxurious feel and keep you looking elegant during the chilly winter days. When it comes to fit, aim for a dress that accentuates your curves without feeling overly tight. A bodycon dress should be flattering without being uncomfortable or too revealing. You'll absolutely love Erika Cavallini’s Cross-Neck Ribbed Dress—a must-have for a well-curated work wardrobe.

Wrap Dress

Wrap dresses are perfect for workdays. The flattering A-line shape and adjustable waist tie make them comfortable for the office, and they come in various fabrics like satin, vegan leather, and ribbed cotton. Our favorite choice is Erika Cavallini’s Wrap-design Satin-finish Dress in a stunning golden copper shade.

Shape-Neck Maxi

While everyone is buzzing about the little black dress, we suggest trying a black maxi dress—like the Shape-neck Knit Dress Albenna from Tiger of Sweden. Its simple yet striking design and unique neckline make it perfect for everyday office wear during the colder months. Pair it with a blazer and heels to create a sleek silhouette, and don't forget to add some eye-catching accessories to complete the look.

How to Find an Office-Friendly Dress

Trying to find a comfortable dress that can withstand a full day at the office? Look for dresses made from stretchy and comfortable fabrics that allow you to move freely. Here's a simple test to ensure your dress fits well:

1. Bend over to check if your bra is visible.

2. Sit down to ensure you can do so comfortably.

3. Raise your arms as if hailing a cab to see if the dress allows full movement.

By doing these movements, either in the dressing room or at home, if you've ordered online, you can make sure the dress will perform well throughout the day. Next time you're shopping for an office dress, remember these tips!
