What more could you ask for?
From chunky minis to sleek, fitted turtleneck options, Amazon has untold numbers of stylish, wallet-friendly sweater dresses. Each shopper-vetted pick below has thousands of five-star ratings and glowing reviews, and they start at an unbelievably affordable $17. Keep scrolling to see the winners that deserve a spot in your winter wardrobe.
If you're looking for a classic sweater dress in a timeless silhouette, voila. This fitted turtleneck style can be dressed up with heels and sparkly accessories or kept casual with flats or sleek white sneakers.
Shoppers love it so much, they're buying it in multiple colors. One wrote, "I purchased three, figuring it's easy to return. None are going back! Fabulous dress! Good mid-weight, comfortable, hits all the good spots (curvy), great with a belt, jacket/sweater cropped or regular length, so great for office, change jewelry for dinner, it's perfect."
This cable knit midi dress is a great belted option that can be adjusted for a comfy fit. There are 18 stylish colors, but we're fond of this pretty dusty pink, sure to brighten up any dull winter wardrobe.
A buyer raved, "This is a perfect dress and I'm completely obsessed. Wore it to a baby shower and got so many compliments. The dress is so comfortable and the material is cozy. It's the perfect length and not too low. Extremely flattering to the figure. I want all the colors!"
The mock neck on this style staple will keep you warm, while the slouchy fit and billowy sleeves add interest. It hits mid-thigh and can be dressed up or down to wear just about anywhere.
"I didn't expect the material! It's really cozy, really comfy, but it's super thick. Definitely going to keep you warm! The bottom has a band that hugs your thigh area, so it's not flowy and weird," wrote a buyer.
If you want to rock a dress that looks like a literal oversized sweater, this one's for you. With a chunky fabric, turtleneck and loose-fitting silhouette, this snuggly piece is ideal for the chilliest months. Wear it with some cute fleece-lined tights for the ultimate cozy look (and feel).
"I'm a bigger girl with an apple body," said a fan. "This dress is unbelievably fashionable and flattering. I bought the brown, wore black leggings, boots, and a long necklace. I got a million compliments from coworkers and sooooo comfy. Not scratchy! Soft! I'm buying another one."
This soft, sleek, stretchy long-sleeve beauty features a flattering, figure-hugging silhouette that hits below the knee, making it appropriate for just about every environment, from work to the weekend. Choose from 20 colors.
One happy customer said, "Comfortable and super flattering. The item is well made and the color of the fabric is very nice — even after washing several times. I received so many compliments! I would buy it again. Definitely worth the money (it's warm too)."
For a more casual look, check out this crewneck sweatshirt dress with practical pockets. The sporty mini has blouson sleeves and hits just above the knee. There are 10 colors, but we love this fun bright red option, especially in the middle of cold, gray winter.
"I love this dress. It is perfect for the cold weather. Warm and soft," a shopper wrote. "Great for casual everyday wear."
We love the buttons along the neckline of this chunky knit frock not just because they add interest — they let you wear the dress multiple ways. Button 'em all the way up for a warm turtleneck or keep things undone and show off some shoulder.
"It's super soft ... and extremely warm! Like, I was sweating immediately when I went inside a restaurant from the cold, and had to rip off my coat ASAP," said this customer. "But that's great; usually in the winter, I'm so cold in dresses, and this one kept me toasty. Got lots of compliments too. It really shows off your curves, and the neckline is super versatile."
Jazz up this mini turtleneck with a pair of tights and knee-high boots or keep things casual and layer it over a pair of leggings. Choose from 16 colors, including soft neutrals and deeper hues like pumpkin orange and wine red.
A five-star reviewer raved, "This sweater dress is so soft and comfortable, hides the belly, and can be dressed up with heels or casual with sneakers! I love how chunky it is and it's not itchy at all, unlike some sweater materials out there."
Valentine's Day is fast approaching, and you may be on the hunt for the perfect outfit. This chic sweater dress has V-Day written all over it thanks to the red hue and figure-flattering silhouette. Just add heels and you're ready for a romantic night on the town.
"I love this so much. It is not see-through at all," wrote this fan. "It stretches well. I love how it does not bunch up like other sweater dresses I have bought. It is thick and great quality. I am tall, so being able to find a dress that actually sits where it is supposed to like this one was so great! If you are looking for a nice sweater dress, this is the one! It does not shrink when washed!"
The cute knit dress is made from an incredibly soft mix of cotton, spandex and polyester, and its flattering faux-wrap silhouette will hug your body without feeling clingy or restrictive. The dress hits at mid-thigh to show off your legs, but the long sleeves mean you won't be showing too much skin — and you can always layer it over your favorite tights for more coverage. Choose from 22 colors.
"Super flattering on and perfect length. It does a wonderful job covering the midsection and yet still shows off [your] figure," said one mega-fan.
