Farm Rio

With its pompom trims and cable-knit texture, Farm Rio's cosy jumper dress feels perfect for the festive season. Show off the Bardot neckline with a great pair of earrings.

Banana Republic

Maxi jumper dresses are surprisingly hard to come by, but Banana Republic's has the perfect shoe-skimming length – it's tempered beautifully by the column fit and shoulder-baring fold-over neckline. Choose from this elegant green shade or a neutral oatmeal.

Joseph

The jumper dress can double as partywear, too. Joseph's is knitted with glittering gold Lurex threads and finished with a plissé skirt. Amp up the Studio 54 vibes with platform sandals.

Reiss

Dyed in a goes-with-anything oatmeal shade, Reiss' jumper dress is defined by its roll neck and alternating ribbing. The midi calf length is perfect for showing off a pair of knee-high boots.

Whistles

Now 15% Off

Searches for jumper dresses skyrocketed following the first lockdown. And while ribbed, bodycon numbers are on trend, most of us are still looking for oversized fits that feel comfy to lounge in. Whistles' burgundy style is ideal – and it also doubles as a tunic to wear over trousers and stirrup leggings.

Rixo

Trust Rixo to give the jumper dress a retro spin – there are so many vintage-inspired pieces to browse on the brand's site right now. This flared knitted midi nods to the late-Sixties with its chevron stripes and balloon sleeves.

Jacquemus

Jacquemus

Now 50% Off

Knitted from tactile mohair and alpaca strands, this bodycon maxi has a thigh-high split and a low scoop neckline. We love how this buttery shade of yellow is now synonymous with the brand, following the Le Souk show back in 2018.

Christopher Esber

Now 40% Off

Christopher Esber is the king of unexpected allure, so its only natural that he's switched up the jumper dress with his go-to strapping and cutouts. This statement piece is cable-knitted from a wool and cashmere blend and split at the sides to temper the maxi hemline. The waist ties are adjustable so you can create the perfect silhouette.

Khaite

The secret to sustainable party dressing? Inject glamour into existing smart/casual pieces or buy easily-elevated staples over sequins and feathers. If you've done the slip-skirt-and-sweater combo to death, try Khaite's jumper dress on for size – it's rib-knitted for a close fit and topped with a sculptural sweetheart neckline.

Cefinn

Cefinn's Eva cardigan was such a hit last season that the brand has now debuted a dress version: it's also made from a ribbed wool-blend and has the same cinched bishop sleeves. If you don't do bodycon, this swishy flared skirt is ideal.
