Fall Dresses - Signature Looks for OOTD & OOTN

It's official! Fall outfits can start. The cocooning season is a time for you to play around with textures and layers. Don't you just love the colors of fall dresses for women? The red, orange, and yellow hues you get to see around.

We've got a long list of our favorite fall 22 trends and we're not ready to give up any. From the fuzzy knitted cardigans, the classic autumnal felt fedora hats, the statement trench coats, and leather head-to-toe apparel to the bone leather studded clogs, and a ton of amazing autumn color dresses in neutral hues and a pop of color, we love all the moments in them.

To dress well in fall, you would need to break out your layers; sweaters, hoodies, jackets, cardigans, scarves, gloves, and boots. You don't need to stick to the traditional fall colors as you can take your chances with darker colors such as brown, grey, navy blue, black, and purple.

Trendy Fall Dresses for Women

Loving the late 90s equestrian vibe? Or you're getting dressed for warmer fall days? Try on a simple timeless fall dress that is perfect not only for when you want to dress casually but also for Thanksgiving and other weekend gatherings. Overalls that end at the thigh with a neutral sweater are cute fall dresses you need to stun any audience.

Going for a coffee run? Style wide-leg jeans with a mock neck top and a striped sweater. For slow and simple days, put on a beige Fargo hat. A sweatshirt with faux leather leggings is perfect for relaxing and chasing after the kids. Plus, you would love to wear these pretty casual fall dresses cos they’re super breathable.

You would rarely get to wear heels with women's fall dresses, but to create your Light-Camera-Action moments on the Gram, don a Zebra print wool dress and thigh-high boots. Opt for a leather raincoat to provide extra warmth for the season.

You may choose to show off your items in fall color red and orange dresses by slipping on slim straight-leg jeans that perfectly elongate your figure. Then, play with layers in a brown belt coat over a turtleneck cable knit sweater and pair it with boyfriend jeans. Opt for a small crossbody bag in tan gold or neutral tones and complete your ensemble with Western cowboy boots or sneakers.

If you're looking for a comfy fall outfit that doubles up as a Thanksgiving ensemble, we'd recommend leggings among them. They are stretchy enough to take up extra dinner and the staples on our online store do not lose their shape – a worthwhile investment. You can buy these comfy editions online from our store. A neutral flannel shirt would also work with your leggings for weekend adventures and travels in the fall.

Fall midi dresses are great options for the season and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion you're dressing for. Keep it casual in a long sleeve shirt dress or add the cocktail notes in a sleek off-the-shoulder or strappy fall dress. Women's fall dresses are easy to pair with tights and ankle boots to beat the cold. Matching sets are also fab fashion killers and fall dresses for women that are included in our fall outfit diary.

Types and Materials of Fall Dresses in SunsetFashionLA

While choosing the Fall color dresses that fuel your fire, you also need to have a good grasp on the best cold-weather fabrics that you can wear in Fall and winter. Clothes that keep you feeling comfortable and warm are what you should choose but there can be no selection if you don’t know what will be ideal. Here are some of the best fabric types and materials to wear during autumn and some of the things you’ll want to know about them:

Knit: Both heavy knits and casual knits are ideal for your casual fall dresses. You can choose to wear the lightweight ones when the weather is a bit warm, especially as a fall transition outfit. While the heavyweight knits including the French terry and Ponte dresses would be better suited for when it gets really cold.

Wool: Wool is arguably the best fabric type for Fall, plus, you can wear them into the winter season with just a few extra layers. There’s cashmere, merino, mohair, flannel, crepe, tweed, corduroy, and jersey, all of which can be considered the different variations of wool fabric that offer great insulation. Wool also makes the best fall color dresses because they hardly wash and with proper maintenance retain their original flair.

Cotton: Just like wool, organic cotton fabrics are another go-to fabric in Fall and can help keep you warm and comfortable throughout the cold temperatures. They might not be ideal for dropping temperatures but are undeniably great mid-layers for fleece jackets and trench coats.

Velvet: If you’re planning to attend a party during the cooler and colder climates but don’t want to look fully straddled in multiple layers, a velvet dress should make it to your list. The warmth of the fabric on your skin can be relaxing and they make the perfect fall midi dresses. While you’re outside, you can choose to layer your dress with thicker and longer fabric pieces, and then fully showcase your dress once you arrive at the venue.

Leather: Leather jackets, skirts, and dresses are among the top trendy fall staples. Aside from the edge they give to your look, they are equally functional for the season and offer some level of warmth as a layering piece. When you wear a leather jacket with autumn color dresses, it instantly elevates your ensemble with some sprinkles of neutrality.

Silk: This fabric is very similar to satin based on its texture, however, silk is a more formal and luxe alternative. Your fall midi dresses in the silk material can serve as a cocktail or evening dress for a great autumn experience.
Others: Sequin, mesh, and bandage may not have been among the top fabrics to wear in Fall, however, they are also stylish picks that you should consider and adapt to the season if you really want to wear them.

Booties - Trendy Fall Edits

Lean more towards the block high-heel ankle boots instead of the ones with narrow heels as the block heels are easier to walk in and feel more comfortable to wear. Also, block heels provide the extra height you need to define your steps and walk elegantly without feeling like you are about to lose balance.

We recommend pairing ankle boots with ankle-length jeans. This will give your outfit a more sleek look as the ankle-length hem prevents the pants from bulking around the boots.

Our pick: Try on ankle-length jeans with cable knit sweaters and block-heel boots. For an even sleeker fall outfit, layer with a trench coat and wear a crossbody bag to take up your essentials. Boots and fuzzy socks go hand in hand, you can style both for extra warmth in your apparel.
