If there’s one thing we hate about summer, it’s the fact that it ends. The death of summer means the death of rosé season, open-toed shoes, sun-kissed complexions—need we continue? But before you start mourning #hotgirlsummer, don’t think you need to immediately bundle up in coats, sweaters and boots. Fall maxi dresses are having a major moment, and they’re the perfect transitional fashion staple to bring a bit of summer’s breezy aura into your autumn wardrobe.
To cure your end-of-summer blues, we suggest donning a maxi dress: the grass-skimming, breeze-catching item everyone should own. It’s the perfect piece for the transition from summer to fall—flowy enough to keep you cool on the hottest summer days, but long enough to protect your bare legs from the cold breeze that often strikes during post-July evenings. You can style them with everything from an oversized denim jacket and chunky kicks to your go-to leather jacket (Nothing like the first wear of the season!) and some boots.
If the idea of a maxi dress only brings to mind flowy, prairie girl energy—which, not for nothing, is a huge trend for 2021 anyway—you should know that there are actually far more options than you might think. There’s nothing prairie about a body-con maxi paired with Docs and a moto jacket, is there? Maxi dresses are the kind of staple you can style a million ways, and while I do suggest getting some tiered, patterned statement options, a few basic layering maxis should make the cut, too.
With that, read on for 14 maxi dresses that are perfect for styling this fall. Not only are these picks completely practical for cross-seasonal wear, but they’re also so cute, you’ll forget how sad you are that summer is pretty much over. (Sorry, too triggering?)

Last but not least, I’ll leave you with this dreamy color-blocked splurge: the STAUD Gage Dress in Bordeaux and Fuchsia. When it comes to fall maxi dresses, does it get any better than this?! I think not.
