The most important thing is to shop with your comfort in mind as a comfortable material and a flattering fit both ensure that you’ll wear your dress for years. Sweater dresses are available in body tight styles, as well as A-line dress or shift that can complement your frame. Think of accentuating your hourglass figure with a fitted sweater dress or simply cinch a loose sweater dress with a wide belt to show off a small waist. Also, pay attention to the fabric as sweater dresses are typically made from cotton, a polyester blend, mohair, viscose, or wool. Generally, wool or mohair feels itchy, especially on a sensitive skin, so you might avoid them.

Make your sweater dress more feminine with a statement necklace.

Since it’s worn primarily during cold weather, styling a short sweater dress appropriately is key. While short lengths add a touch of edge and sass to an otherwise classic piece, statement necklaces can make your basic ensemble feminine and chic. Bib necklaces, jeweled necklaces, and chunky necklaces look fashion-forward with these dresses. They’re perfect for everything from casual lunches to nights out with the girls, and add a fun element to any wardrobe.

Complete your fall style with chic footwear.

Choosing chic footwear is the key when it comes to pulling off a sweater dress. If you’re wearing a shorter sweater dress with a coat, you might consider a pair of over-the-knee boots to complete your look like fashion blogger Jenny Tsang did. They’re extremely trendy and they also add another layer of warmth to your legs. Or, think of going for a pair of nude pumps to add some ladylike vibe to your cozy style.

Layer like a pro with sweater dress.

Some sweater dress is similar to a tunic that may graze the area right below the hips. Wearing your sweater dress with opaque tights, leggings, leather trousers, or skinny jeans is a great way to look chic and stay warm without a lot of bulk. You may also think of topping your sweater dress with a structured coat, suede jacket, leather vest and such that will make your style more creative and functional. Indeed, sweater dresses are a great option for women who don’t want to make the switch to pants at the first sign of cold weather, so be stylish and cozy in your fall style.
