2. An oversized turtleneck sweater dress that'll put to rest any argument that dresses can't be cozy. Pair it with leggings or your favorite showstopping boots.
Promising review: "OMG, where do I start. I love this dress. It’s so big and chunky and cozy but also super sexy!!! The pockets are amazing, and the material isn’t itchy at all. It looks great paired with tall boots, but I’m sure you could rock some leggings and ankle boots and it would look just as amazing. Totally worth the price; it is baggy for sure, but I anticipated that when I ordered one size up so I could get the length I wanted. I want one in EVERY COLOR. Another Amazon win!" —Ashlee
Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 38 colors/patterns).
3. Or a bodycon sweater dress if you prefer a sexier silhouette for all your hot girl lounging needs.
Promising review: "I never know what to expect when ordering clothing off Amazon. I took a chance because of the great reviews and it did not disappoint! It’s very comfortable and so pretty! I’m tall and it landed just above my knee, and it didn’t ride up at all. Wore it for hours and the fabric is soooo soft. I got the dark purple and the color is so pretty! I definitely plan to order more colors! I sized up because I was worried about it being too formfitting but I honestly could have worn my normal size!" —Devon Boyle
Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 23 colors).

Promising review: "This is the easy-breezy simple dress I’ve been looking for! It’s super soft with some stretch and has pockets!!! You can throw this on for anything.

7. A breezy baby doll dress for a reminder that some good things did come out of the pandemic, like dresses designed with nap-ready softness and stretch.
Promising review: "The Athena is my favorite of all the Nap Dresses! I am 5'2" and the length is perfect. I can dress the Navy Linen down with sneakers or up with espadrilles. The neckline is gorgeous. I rarely go braless, but am able to in this one and my bust still looks great/supported. My fiancé proposed to me in the light blue glitter check, so it has a special place in my heart. Love, love, love!" —Emma W.
Get it from Hill House Home $99+ (available in sizes XXS–XXL and 13 styles).

FYI, this is included in Prime Try Before You Buy so you can give it a trial run if you're a member! Also, reviewers say this dress runs large, so consider ordering a size down!
Promising review: "Love the comfort and ease of this dress. I wear it with leggings. Washes and dries easily, no shrinkage or wrinkling! Maybe the pockets weren’t necessary, there is a slight bit of bulk on one side, but not noticeable and who doesn’t like pockets?!?! Jewelry with this is limitless; easy to style. Definitely buying again in another color." —MoInnkeeper
Get it from Amazon for $18.19+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 25 colors).
9. Plus, a knit puff-sleeve skater dress made from trademarked Super Soft Plush fabric if that sort of (delightful) sensation appeals to you.
10. A drapey tencel wrap dress so you can get a comfy, customized fit any time, even after that post-mealtime bloat hits.
Promising review: "I love this dress. It’s made very well and the fabric isn’t some tissue-thin cheap stuff. And the drape is gorgeous. It’s perfect attire for a wide variety of activities and incredibly comfortable. I highly recommend this item!" –Samantha G.

If you're blessed in the boob department, reviewers recommend ordering a size up because of a seam that sits right below the bust.
Promising review: "I can’t say enough good things about this dress. The length is great, and the fit is great! I probably could have done a small but didn’t want it to be too short for work. Perfect dress to dress up with wedges or heels or dress down with booties or sandals." —Kayla
Get it from Amazon for $23.98+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 44 styles including short sleeve and sleeveless).
12. Or a long-sleeve tie-waist dress because it'll add a whole lot of waist-cinching va-va-voom to your standard comfy dress lineup.
FYI, this is included in Prime Try Before You Buy so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!
Promising review: "I bought this to wear at my son’s baptism, and when I tried it on I did not want to take it off it is so comfortable! I also like that it pairs well with virtually any type of shoe, you can dress it up as much as you’d like or dress it down, whatever you prefer. Very versatile dress and I love it! I must add though, if you are a short petite woman like myself, it will not be a mini dress like in the picture, it comes to just right above my knee." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $37.89 (available in sizes S–XL and 25 colors).
13. A high neck racerback midi dress for comfortable all-in-one support thanks to built-in bra padding and lusciously lightweight rib knit fabric.

Promising review: "I bought it as a versatile dress to wear for fancy or casual occasions. It’s so easy to throw on and run out the door, and automatically look put together. I have used it with the included belt as well as belts I already have. I love that it does not have the little belt loops that stick out and make dresses look cheap." —JaymeInOhio
Get it from Amazon for $38.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 24 colors/patterns).
15. A pullover hooded sweatshirt dress if you've ever looked at your favorite hoodie and thought "You'd be perfect if only I didn't have to wear pants." Wish granted.
Reviewers say it runs large. Order your normal size for a by-design baggy fit or consider ordering down if you prefer something more fitted.
Promising review: "So so soft — inside and out! Warm, comfortable, and adorable with my Chelsea boots and black tights. Bought it in the mustard/tan color originally, but I got so many compliments on it that I will definitely be getting at least one more in another color!" —Susanna Cardinale

18. A long-sleeve ruched midi dress for a wardrobe multitasker you could just as easily wear it to an IRL wedding as you could the Love Is Blind wedding on your TV.
Promising review: "This made me feel instantly confident. I tend to shy away from bold prints or tight silhouettes but decided to try it and I’m so glad I did. The ruching is perfect, and the slit is so fun. I also love the long sleeves and mock neck. It just feels really sexy! I usually wear a Large or 12 dress/pant. I got a Large for this dress and it was perfect." —Lauren T

Promising review: "This dress is such a steal! It is super comfortable, can easily be dressed up or down with accessories, and is easily wearable in so many situations. Wouldn't look out of place while just lounging at home, out running errands, out to dinner, or even at a nice but casual social occasion. It is versatile and, thanks to the pockets, a purse is optional if you don't carry much. I will absolutely buy this in more colors and prints!" —Elizabeth S.

21. A bodycon quarter-zip dress if you've been working to perfect your Sporty Spice aesthetic since the late '90s.
22. A novelty stitch sweater dress that can double as an oversized cardigan for a look that combines two of my favorite "S" words — snuggly and sexy!
Promising review: "I'm a big fan of this cardigan dress. It's nice and heavy. It's also soft — not itchy at all. The length is perfect for both wearing as a dress or as an oversized cardigan. Loved it so much I purchased two colors." —Zena
