I’m a firm believer that you can never have too many maxi dresses — the limit simply doesn’t exist. And while summer might get all the hype for being the prime time to wear the breezy style, make no mistake — there’s also an abundance of great fall maxi dresses that are equally cozy, trendy, and ideal for transitional wear.
The real appeal of a fall maxi dress is in its breezy, go-anywhere, and wear-with-anything nature. The style typically encompasses more versatile pieces like sweater dresses or long-sleeved frocks — think styles that that are breathable and comfortable, but still offer enough coverage for you to feel warm once the temperatures cool down. I also appreciate a more versatile piece that can be reimagined and re-worn, even throughout the season’s ever-fluctuating temperatures.
With that in mind, I’ve curated a list of the best maxi dresses for fall, with styles from brands like Target, Mango, ASOS, Zara, Nordstrom, Amazon, and more. Whether you’re wearing these designs with knee-high boots, everyday sneakers, or cute heels, the maxi dress is the ultimate seasonal must have. Keep reading to shop through the selects and get yourself something pretty (you deserve it!).
