Nina Leonard V-Neck Balloon Sleeve Sweater Dress
The Best Chic Sweater Dress
The Hype: 4.4 out 5; 106 reviews on NordstromRack
Sweater dresses don't have to be oversized or like a thick cable-knit blanket. If the weather is a bit nippy and you're not feeling like wearing a blazer or trousers to the office, try this modern sweater dress. The fashionable sleeves and V-neck add the necessary amount of detail to make it chic, and it pairs great with knee-high boots.
"The dress has a nice shape, unlike many sweater dresses that don't give you a shape but overshadow you. The balloon sleeves make it special and are the perfect elevated sweater weather piece," exclaims a reviewer.

TOO FEW REVIEWSThe Best Fall Barbiecore Mini Dress
The Hype: 4.5 out of 5 stars; 37 reviews on Revolve
Barbie's cozying up in pastel sweater dresses for fall and leaving her hot fuchsia jumpsuits for the summer. The dress slightly cinches in at the waist, but for a more prominent snatched look, take note of the model and add a belt.
"The dress is flattering and has a good weight — it's thick but not overheating. It's the perfect sweater dress for me," writes a reviewer. "For reference, I'm 5'8, 138 lb, and have a long torso, which was not too short. I'm S/M and got a M. The dress hugs the body without being completely bodycon."
