Sleeveless dresses you can layer from summer into winter

A sleeveless dress doesn’t have to wait for July. Plenty of ours are rib knit midis you wear all year, and the rest split between summer prints on thin straps and short velvet or satin for parties.

Rib knit midis for every month

These are the workhorses. We cut them close to the body in a stretchy rib knit with a round neck, in black, white, beige and red, and they stop around mid-calf.

In summer you wear one on its own with sandals. Come October, a thin turtleneck goes underneath, and then it’s fine for the office. By December there’s a long cardigan on top and flat boots. Same dress, three seasons.

The beige and the red are made from a ribbed scuba knit that’s quite firm, and they usually don’t need ironing. Choose your true size here. Rib stretches, so a size up will only look loose.

White rib shows everything under it. Smooth nude underwear without seams fixes that. Black rib looks slimming, and a thin belt at the waist marks the line even more.

Thin straps, bandeau tops and two party minis

For heat, there’s a black sundress in tiny flowers. Its tie straps let you set the bodice length, and the flared skirt covers the knees. Then comes a light blue mini with red flowers, a bare back and a ruffled flounce along the hemline. It’s made for a beach party or an outdoor wedding buffet. A white bandeau mini with a blue print sits on the bust with no straps at all, so size by your bust there.

Two midis bring ruffles at the waist, one yellow and one pink. The pink one isn’t seasonal, so it can go over a turtleneck in fall.

For parties, we’ve got two short ones. An emerald velvet mini on thin straps looks deeper under warm lights, and a black velvet one packs into a bag and comes out ready to wear. Throw a jacket over the shoulders on the way there.

The red satin slip mini is a cold-weather piece in our collection. Wear it to a holiday party with an oversized blazer and sheer tights.

Every style comes in XS to XL. Looking for one color only? Go to black sleeveless styles, browse our fitted midis or the short velvet party dresses.
