Trust Me—This Is Fall's #1 Dress Trend
Do you ever come across an item, whether in a store, on Instagram, or on the street, and once you’ve noticed it, you can’t stop seeing it everywhere? As you could have probably guessed, such is the case with the topic of today’s post: the long-sleeve knit dress trend for fall, spearheaded by the one and only Jacquemus and championed by all your favorite bloggers, influencers, street style stars, and, of course, retailers. It’s everywhere, and while I’m usually skeptical of fads that spread in this wildfire-like fashion, I’m actually quite into this one—for several reasons.
There’s, of course, a sensibility to the frock. It’s comfortable, very streamlined, and pretty much impossible to style poorly. It’s also very sleek-looking, lengthening, and thus flattering to the figure. Then there’s my favorite thing about the trend: the accessibility. Yes, the $500 to $700 Jacquemus versions are amazing and totally worth the investment if that’s something you can budget for, but if not, there are countless other options with the same appeal. To see just what I mean, simply continue for the photos trend in action (aka your outfit inspiration), to shop the Jacquemus versions, and then, of course, to shop even more amazing long, knit dresses for fall.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
