Knit dresses are to A/W what the slip dress is to S/S
Chic, easy, effortless dressing. If those are how you’d like to define your style this season, look no further: knit dresses are the way to go.
The knit dress has been spotted all over the fashion scene for a few seasons now. From the runway to street style there's a style for every fashionista out there. Embellished like Bottega, explicit cut out detailing like Dion Lee. From short chunky knit dresses to long maxi knit dresses. Whether you live in milder winter climates or winter wonderland lands- there's a knit dress suitable for wherever you are.
It’s the easy, throw-on-and-go piece that also qualifies as a wardrbe staple and investment piece that will carry you through the colder seasons, and for years to come.
And while we are on the topic, let's debunk the myth that investment pieces have to be expensive and unattainable. What it simply means is choosing clothing items in durable material, in a timeless color and versatile shape. And if you're looking for investment pieces, Saks Off 5th is the perfect one-stop-shop for all things designer at reasonable price points.
This long sleeved V-neck Calvin Klein button down knit dress has all the details that can easily transform this dress from day to night. Mules and a long line coat reads sophisticated.
Though the knit dress is a seasoned veteran in the fashion game, to freshen it up, vet out alluring backless details and/or cut out details in a midi length. Or a slouchy, high neck dress in a bright hue. Something tells me we are breaking all the old rules, and new rules say: colors aren't only meant for the warmer seasons. Both wearable with knee high boots for a layered and covered look.
Here are some knit dresses that I've added to my wishlist(s):
