Robbie s almond Mille’s Jasmine dress — which retails for $236 — gave off an elevated yet casual vibe. With its buttoned-up detailing, long sleeves, and below-the-knee hemline, the piece offered just the right amount of coverage for fall. She kept the ensemble neutral all over by picking accessories that matched the dress’s colorway, styling it with Loeffler Randall’s below-the-knee Gia boots with a thick block heel, a brown leather shopper bag, subtle gold jewelry, and thick tortoise-print sunglasses.

This polished yet effortless ensemble shows why the shirt dress is one of fall’s smartest purchases: its versatility. It looks just as smashing layered underneath a great coat or dressed up with a heel for evening. Luckily, there’s a number of styles on the market to shop right now as well, no matter your style preference. Below, shop 9 of fall’s smartest shirt dresses.
