Since the start of October, I’ve been wearing a handful of items on rotation. Admittedly, one of them is joggers, which I think is justified after neglecting them for the best part of the summer. Another? Knitted dresses—specifically, long-sleeve knitted dresses.
As a dress person who’s prone to feeling the cold, I’m excited at the prospect of being able to wear my favourite garment without having to sacrifice being toasty. So easy to style, I like wearing mine with knee-high boots and camel coats for immediate polish. That said, for days when the sofa proves too tempting, knitted dresses also double-up as an elevated loungewear option—one I don’t mind answering the door in either. Win-win.
While I already have a couple hanging in my wardrobe, with winter rapidly approaching, I’ve decided to treat myself to a new knitted dress or two, prioritising those with long-sleeves to maximum cosy points. Handily, there are so many impressive styles to choose from.
In case you, too, are on the hunt for the perfect long-sleeve knitted dress, I’ve whipped up an edit of my favourite knitted frocks for you below. Yes, there are 27 of them, but what can I say? Brands have outdone themselves on the dress front this year. With a long-sleeve knitted dress in every shape and shade imaginable, scroll below to see them all in their wintry glory. All you need to do is add your go-to boots, and you’re all set.
