While we love the oversized trend as much as the next shopper, we think it’s often best styled alongside a cinched piece. A shacket with a belted dress? A slouchy cardigan with a smocked jumpsuit? Love! These pieces are amazing on their own too.
Below, we’ve curated a stylish list of dresses and jumpsuits that will highlight and accentuate your waist, whether with a tie, belt, gathered/ruched fabric, smocking or whatever else. Add these picks to your fall wardrobe ASAP!
Dresses
1. Our Absolute Favorite: This Wdirara dress is the type of piece you can wear with sneakers or heels. Dress it up, dress it down — wear it everywhere!
2. We Also Love: A cinched waist and long legs? This Grace Karin maxi dress does it all. It even has pockets!
