Since last month, I’ve been wearing a handful of items on rotation. Admittedly, one of them is a pair of joggers, which I think is justified after neglecting them over the summer. Another? Knitted dresses—specifically long-sleeve knitted dresses.

As a dress person who’s prone to feeling the cold, I’m excited at the prospect of being able to wear my favourite garment without having to sacrifice warmth. Knitted dresses are so easy to style, and I like wearing mine with knee-high boots and camel coats for immediate polish. That said, on days when the sofa proves too tempting, knitted dresses also double as elevated loungewear (an option I don’t mind answering the door in, either). Win-win.

While I already have a couple hanging in my wardrobe, with winter rapidly approaching, I’ve decided to treat myself to a new knitted dress or two, prioritising those with long sleeves to maximize cosiness. Handily, there are so many impressive styles to choose from.

In case you, too, are on the hunt for the perfect long-sleeve knitted dress, I’ve whipped up an edit of my favourite knitted frocks for you below. Yes, there are 24 of them, but what can I say? Brands have outdone themselves on the dress front this year. Scroll below to see long-sleeve knitted dresses (in every shape and shade imaginable) in all their wintry glory. All you need to do is add your go-to boots, and you’re all set.
