You know we can't pass up a good pair of overalls. They're a one-and-done outfit that can be styled in so many ways, whether with a sweatshirt and sneakers or a fitted black top and ankle booties. But there is another iteration of the '90s classic that's a bit chicer and acts as the perfect layering piece to style over your favorite fall sweaters and blouses. Enter: the overall dress, a slightly less tomboyish version of the trend.
Much like overalls, the piece has dungaree-style straps on top but then takes on the form of a dress on the bottom. It's still a one-and-done piece that is actually super simple to wear and comes with endless styling possibilities. Just take a look at the overall dress outfits below. From teaming a classic black one with a super-chunky knit sweater to stying a midi-length denim version with over-the-knee boots, here are our favorite looks that prove an overall dress is a must-have in your fall wardrobe rotation. Read on to see the outfits and to shop our favorite overall dresses on the market.
