Though the runways for Spring/Summer 2021 have looked a bit different this year (ICYMI, nearly all of them went virtual.) the Fall/Winter 2020 runways were a sartorial—and in-person—delight. Since we aren’t getting to have the same experiences with the 2021 shows, we might as well take full advantage of what the runways predicted we’d see this fall—and in particular, all the gorgeous fall dress trends already starting to pop up. If you didn’t really pay much attention to the 2020 runway shows for Fall/Winter 2020, have no fear. We took a good, long look at what designers will be offering in the next several months and put together a list of eight different dress trends we’ll all see throughout fall of 2020.
Whether you’re someone who likes to plan out their wardrobes based on the trends or you just like to know what trends you’ll likely see all over Instagram, the fall dresses are a fantastic place to start. While it might sometimes feel like dresses have their moments to shine in the spring and summer, we’re here to declare that fall dresses are seriously underrated. In most places, the weather doesn’t even begin to cool off until mid-fall, so wearing dresses don’t even require tights for most of the season. You can just don a mini dress and booties all day, then add an oversized cardigan when the temperatures drop at night. And then, when the weather does cool off, there are so many high-neck and long dresses that’ll keep you nice and warm even while you’re out picking pumpkins. Fall dresses are low-key one of the best clothing options for the season—full stop.
Sure, jeans, leggings and oversized sweaters are all fall staples, but once you feast your eyes upon on all the amazing fall dress trends for 2020, you won’t be able to resist swapping out your classic fall looks with some of these frocks. From the runways of Carolina Herrera, Prada, Balenciaga and more, there are so many fall dress trends of which to be aware. For 2020, you’ll see statement sleeves, oversized ruffles and fringe galore—an endless supply of cool details that instantly elevate any dress.These trends are big, bold and most of all, statement-making.
To give you a peek into what amazing fashion fall 2020 has in store for us all, we rounded up eight of the chicest fall dress trends below. You’ll find runway iterations and ways to shop them all from some of your favorite brands. Before you know it, you might find that dresses are your new go-to fall wardrobe pick.

3. Fringe Benefit
We saw fringe pieces all over the Fall/Winter 2020 runways, but perhaps the most prevalent was within the Prada runway show. The designer’s latest collection was filled to the brim with gorgeous fringe, and it’s already become one of the coolest fall 2020 trends to date. Autumn’s dresses are all getting elevated with this swoon-worthy detail, and we can’t wait to wear it all season long.

7. Life Is The Bubbles
Apparently everything is having a comeback, because along with babydoll dresses, bubble dresses are trending for fall 2020. We saw a blue, feathery, bubbly beaut on the JW Anderson runway, and it was a sight. The interpretation on this one is a bit loose—and some babydoll dresses are often also considered bubble dresses—but if you see that tucked-under hem, safe to say it’s a bubble dress. Try this trend with some chunky booties or dress it up with heels for an early aughts prom vibe.
If you’re not totally sold on the bubble dress trend, opt for a barely-there bubble hem. This green floral dress features a a slight bubble detail at the bottom, and it’s an easy way to test out the look.

We’re already seeing so many dresses with oversized ruffles, tiered ruffles and fun ruffly details, so you might as well get on board this season. Go maximalist with it or keep it simple—either way, these ruffle details will make you look cute AF for fall.
