I love the season of layering and fall is definitely the best time to do so. Depending on where you live, fall may have been cooler all day long, or you may be battling cool mornings and hot afternoons. Either way, you’re going to need some cozy fall dresses. Cozy fall dresses are perfect because you can dress them up or down, wear them with leggings or bare legs, and are perfect for any fall event. This list of cozy fall dresses under $30 will give you the ultimate cool-weather wardrobe.
Now, the point of this list is that these cozy fall dresses are more than just flannel muumuus (although that would be nice). There are mini fall dresses, maxi dresses, and tons of super comfy sweatshirt and sweater dresses. Let’s be honest, you just don’t want to wear a super tight, form-fitting dress to do a bunch of things. We’re talking even mini dresses that drop low and have plenty of room in the bust to keep you comfortable and Sexy. All of the dresses included are suitable for a ton of different fall events, and you can easily mix and match accessories and shoes.
Affordability is also a theme in the game, so all of the fall dresses here are under $30. Yes, that means even if they’re not on sale, the price is still under $30. Many of them are available in other color options and multiple size options, so choose your favorite and organize your wardrobe.
01little black dress
Even in the cooler months, a little black dress is always a great addition to your wardrobe. Wear this sweet flared dress from H&M with leggings, booties or loafers, or even with a pop of color like a plaid scarf or plaid leggings. It’s versatile and suitable for all fall climates. It’s also available in green and leopard print colors and in sizes XS to XXL.
02Comfortable and cozy layered dress
Sweatshirt dresses are a fall staple, and I love this layered style from Walmart. The three layers really give it a more structured look while still being very comfortable and inviting. The other colors (black and pink) are currently out of stock, but if you want more than the beige seen here, keep checking back.
03The cutest corduroy dress
I need this corduroy pleated dress from Bloomchic the most. Look how cute this is! This picture shows the bronze version, but it also comes in navy, black, and army green in sizes M to 6X. You can even layer it with a Halloween shirt or collared top to add some pizzazz.
04Fun buttoned sweater dress
Wouldn’t you rather throw on this tunic sweater dress and curl up in a ball on the couch? It’s basically like wearing a giant dress, but the ties and ribbing really make it look like a tailored dress rather than just a giant scarf wrapped around the body. It comes in several other colors, including forest green and coffee, and in sizes S to XXL.
05The perfect bow sweater dress
I can’t get over how cute this knot-front lantern sleeve ribbed knit dress is. The color is perfect for fall and the little bow in the center has just the right amount of whimsy. It’s like a sweater dress—only prettier. This fall dress is available in sizes 12 to 20 and in other colors including grey, orange, red and hot pink.
06The Sweetest Fall Floral Dresses
If you’re still thinking this fabric looks like something from your grandma’s couch in the 1970s, then yes. That’s only half the appeal. This rocking mini shift dress from Amazon has cute sleeves for a vintage feel, and the color is pastel enough for fall, so you can pair it with boots or loafers. It looks especially cute paired with leggings and boots, and I love how comfortable the whole thing looks with the low waistline and elastic band.
07The perfect plaid fall dress
The perfect fall style doesn’t – oh. Guys, Walmart has been on a roll lately and I really love this mini woven dress from Time and Tru.

Plus, it looks comfortable and comes in sizes XS to XXXL.
08The Cutest Tie Knot Fall Dress
I love this striped tie knot dress from Bloomchic. The pastel colors of the stripes give it a soft, vintage fall vibe, and I love how comfortable it is to wear while still being a beautiful, structured dress. The fabric is soft and not too stretchy, so you can throw a jacket over it and pair it with booties, tall boots or flats.
09Simple, lightweight fall dress
Like many of the dresses here, this mini double fabric dress isn’t as comfortable as a giant sweater, but it’s loose and has lots of stretch while still being suitable for any fall event. The color is perfect for the season and comes in sizes XS to XXXL as well as three other colors including terracotta and violet.
10Comfortable ribbed dress

No. 17tailored sweater dress
A more comfortable sweater dress, but cut a little more fitted. This batwing sleeve version looks gorgeous on a fall night on the town and you can pair it with jewelry and accessories very simply. I’m obsessed with those bat wings, especially because they make it so comfortable to look at without worrying about spaghetti dripping down your sleeves. 10/10.
