Sure, Trousers Are a Fall Staple, But IMO, Dresses Are So Much Better—33 Gorgeous Styles From Mango, Reformation, and Anthropologie
Don't miss out on this underrated essential.

Don't get me wrong. I'm all for wide-leg trousers and '90s-inspired straight-leg jeans, but I believe dresses are a severely underrated essential in a chic fall closet. As we transition from summer trends to new fall fashion, I highly recommend not setting aside your dresses just yet. Instead, reach for a cozy cardigan or a French woman's favorite, the trench, for a windy fall morning. I also hear the sporty funnel-neck style is giving the moto jacket a run for its money this season. Pair dresses with any of this season's trending shoe styles, from slouchy suede boots and low-profile sneakers to chunky clogs and, as It girls everywhere will suggest, ballet flats. Plus, as this temperamental NYC weather proves, rain boots are a must.
Below, I'm rounding up gorgeous fall dresses from Mango, Reformation, and Anthropologie, from romantic boho-chic styles that will have anyone asking "Is that vintage Chloé?" to sleek mock-neck knit minis that are guaranteed to turn heads. To me, fall fashion is all about looking rich and ensuring mornings run smoothly, and there's nothing easier than throwing on a chic dress and calling it a day.
