Knit Maxi Dresses Are Trending For A Cozy Glam Look In Fall 2023

Putting together cute and functional 'fits can prove more challenging as the air gets crisper. It seems that anytime we pick out a cute look, it requires multiple layers to make it weather-appropriate. Many times, these layers ruin the ensemble's entire vibe. We reached for maxi dresses during the warmer months to create effortless and weather-appropriate summer outfits. This fall, we still love the versatility and functionality of the maxi dress. While the silky, flowing summer versions of the dress may not work, a cozier variety has taken over the market – the knit maxi.

A knit maxi dress provides the best of both worlds regarding function and fashion. The look is as glam as any traditional maxi dress and as warm and comfortable as your favorite sweater. Whether you want a look for a fall date night or want to spice up your office attire, a knit maxi dress is a wardrobe essential for fall 2023.

A cold-shoulder moment

The cold-shoulder dress is a chic option for any closet. In the colder months, a knit cold-shoulder maxi dress is a great statement piece and ideal for the season. We love this choice for a night out, styled with knee-high boots and minimalist jewelry. Finish off the look with natural glam makeup.

Keeping it neutral

Lovers of the minimalist aesthetic often gravitate towards the knit maxi dress as it is truly a "one and done" outfit, especially in a neutral shade. Accessories are a great way to elevate the look. Style a neutral maxi dress with a nude handbag and crisp white sneakers for a minimal "clean girl" outfit, or add a pop of red, fall's "it" color, for a striking contrast.

Living that layered life

Layers don't have to mean bulky and unfashionable; they are all about styling. Some layering pieces fit seamlessly with a glam knit maxi. For those extra chill nights, pair your dress with thick tights, a longline trench coat, and boots to keep the chic vibes going.

Casual style

Knit maxi dresses are easy to dress down for an everyday look. Whether heading to the grocery store or the school pick-up line, the knit maxi is an easy way to appear put-together while staying cozy. For a casual take, we love a striped knit maxi dress reminiscent of a T-shirt styled with sneakers, sunglasses, and a tote bag.

Brighten the day with color

Wearing fun colors shouldn't stop just because the weather cools down. The knit maxi dress is the perfect way to continue incorporating brighter shades into your wardrobe during the fall months. Try donning a pastel knit maxi dress with your favorite heels and a contrasting bag for a cozy feminine look.

All-black everything

The classic all-black outfit is essential to keep in your fall wardrobe rotation. Create this classic look with a black knit maxi dress, which is also an easy way to upgrade your LBD style for the autumn season. Style with black boots, oversized sunglasses, and a designer bag for the ultimate effect.
