Leave it to Dua Lipa to make us rethink our entire wardrobe for 2024. The singer recently wore a gorgeous dark-brown Tom Ford gown while in Jaipur, India, standing out among a wave of little black dresses flooding our Instagram feeds.
Although wearing head-to-toe neutrals is nothing new, opting for a rich chocolatey brown instead of beige, white, or black somehow looks and feels very fashion-forward. It's decadent without being over-the-top, and it can be dressed up with metallic accessories for a bit of added sparkle or made simple for everyday wear with black accessories like boots, belts, and bags.
If you're ready to start this year off on a stylish note, keep scrolling for some recent runway inspo, plus 13 dark-brown dresses to shop now. Most of these designs come in black, too, but if you choose a length, fabric, and neckline that's right for you, your winter wardrobe will be full of little brown dresses in no time.
