H&M's Knit Dresses Could Easily Be Designer—24 I've Added to My Winter Wish List
The knitted dress has really become the unsung hero of our wardrobes over the past few years, which is unsurprising, really, when you think about it. They’re cosy and comfortable but also chic; they look relaxed paired with trainers and chunky sandals in transitional months and really smart when paired with ankle or knee-high boots in winter. They’re also really flattering on most body types, hugging curves in all the right places. It’s obvious why they’ve become the perfect easy outfit choice and you’ll likely find at least one of theBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing team wearing one at any given time.
Because the knitted dresses trend has stood the test of time and proven popular for many seasons now, there are so many iterations out there to choose from if you’re looking to invest in one or build up your collection. Yes, there are a number of designers doing them really well (think Christopher Esber and Chloé), but luckily for us, this is one of those trends the high street has absolutely nailed too.
In particular, H&M has knocked its knitted-dress offering out of the park. We know the high-street retailer is always impressive at producing expensive-looking basics, but trust us when we say its rib-knit dresses are next-level good. Almost all of the ones on site have five-star reviews with recurring comments about great quality and fit, and so we thought it was only right we collated the very best in an easy-to-shop edit below. There are figure-hugging stretch options, looser tunic versions, midi and maxi lengths—all in a spectrum of classic, wearable neutral shades. Keep scrolling to shop.
Shop H&M Rib-Knit Dresses:
A knitted dress, with knee-highs and a tailored coat? or worn with some baggy jeans to help combat the cold weather—I'm sold.
I always find white outfits to be very whimsical-looking—if you can keep them looking pristine, you truly are a wizard.
I didn't know I needed a silk-blend knit dress in my life until I felt this—so, so cosy.
Style this with a shearling jacket with a chic winter look that will work on the coldest of days.
For those sunday lounge days when you want to look a little more put together.
For a more muted look opt for it in beige with a matching beige blazer and suede trainers.
