That first bout of crisp, cool air is blowing our way, and if there’s one item I’ll be wearing once the temps start to drop, it’s a chic knit dress. Whether it’s a classic black knit minidress paired with flat knee-high boots or a trending maxi silhouette paired with sandals, the cozy piece is ideal for getting us through every fall and winter occasion—from work to the weekend and evening drinks—in comfort and style.

Knit dresses come runway-approved too. They were spotted in all styles and silhouettes on the F/W 22 runways—from fluffy knits at Isabel Marant to long, chic silhouettes at Jil Sander—and we’re already seeing plenty of beautiful iterations at our favorite retailers. So if you’re obsessed with knit dresses as much as we are, scroll below as we’re sharing the knit dresses that feel fresh and on-trend for fall.
