It's officially knitwear season, and even though our collection has expanded quite a bit in the last few years (hello, cardigan-sets, knit boleros, and knit skirt sets to mention a few) there's one item, in particular, that's a step above the rest. We're talking about knit dresses, specifically ribbed knit dresses. Maybe it's because they add an effortless vibe to all our fall and winter outfits, maybe it's because they're supremely comfortable, easy to put on, and happen to look expensive regardless of price, or maybe it's because we haven’t found a style yet that we don’t like. Whichever the reason, they're the dominating dress trend this season, and we're so here for it.
If you’ve been eyeing the trend but haven’t found the outfit inspiration you needed, then look no further than the best ribbed knit dresses below. We’ve charted the trend's path from the fall/winter 2021 runways to becoming a reality on our Instagram feeds and now in our carts.
