A denim dress is one of the few pieces that works in every season. In summer it's a throw-on-and-go staple; in fall it becomes the base for layered, cozy outfits. Here are six easy ways to style a denim dress when the temperature drops, and a few of our favorite denim dresses to try.
Why a denim dress works all year
Denim is sturdy, easy to wash and pairs with almost every color. A denim dress gives you a complete outfit in one piece, so the only decisions left are layers, shoes and accessories.
6 ways to wear a denim dress this fall
1. Add ankle boots
Swap sandals for ankle boots and the same dress instantly feels seasonal. Block heels keep it practical for a full day on your feet. Browse our boots collection.
2. Layer a sweater on top
Pull a fitted sweater over a denim slip or pinafore dress and let the skirt show below. Tuck the hem or knot it at the waist to keep the shape.
3. Throw on a cardigan
A longline cardigan softens denim and adds warmth without hiding the dress. Neutral knits in cream, camel or grey work with every wash.
4. Go denim on denim
Pair a denim dress with a denim jacket in a different wash. A lighter jacket over a darker dress (or the reverse) keeps the look intentional. See our denim tops and jackets.
5. Add tights and a belt
Opaque tights stretch a mini or midi denim dress into late fall. A belt at the waist gives shape to looser styles.
6. Finish with a scarf
A printed scarf adds color and makes a simple denim dress look styled with almost no effort.
