Promising review: "This dress is amazing. I placed a large order of approximately 10 different dresses on Amazon, and this one is BY FAR my favorite! I ordered a large (I'm 5'7", a 36C, and 165 lbs) and it fits me like a glove. The buttons are super cute and the sash at the waist just pulls the whole look together. The material is sturdy but still breathable. It doesn't feel cheaply made at all. I'm a teacher and I cannot WAIT to wear this in my classroom! Do yourself a favor and buy this dress!!!" —Amazon Customer

Price: $23.99+ (available in sizes XS-3X and in 14 colors)

Promising review: "This dress is amazing!! It's very good-quality fabric, and doesn’t look cheap at all. I can see it working for multiple body types. I’m bigger on the lower half and I struggle with dresses, but the A-line design on this works beautifully. And it's SUPER comfortable!!! It’s got stretch but not in a bad way. I'm a teacher and I like wearing dresses, but they have to be comfortable and this fits the bill. I've already ordered additional colors because I see this being worn frequently!! If you're hesitant, don’t be — you will be so happy once you try it on." —ddstampsalot

Promising review: "I love this dress so much I just brought another one in yellow. I wear a size 12/14 and the large fit me just right. The neckline isn't too low and neither are the arm holes. I’m a teacher and I can wear this dress to both school and church. Great dress and even better price!" —Team JHBN

Price: $19.99+ (available in sizes S-XL and in seven colors)

6. An amazing statement shirtdress sure to instantly transform the hallway into your runway.

Plus it's got pockets!!! Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this dress.

Promising review: "I wear this all the time! I'm a teacher, so it's the perfect length! It hits right at the knee. I'm 5'5" and about 115 pounds and I ordered a small. It fits perfectly — not too tight. Great to dress up or down and perfect for fall or spring!" —hannah dudek

Price: $19.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in seven colors)

8. A mixed-print maxi with pockets so you can teach everyone a very important lesson — that comfort and style can go hand in hand!

amazon.com

Promising review: "Perfect for a teacher! I was looking for a dress to wear that would be comfortable in front of my students and that had sleeves but wouldn't melt me in the classroom either. This goes right to my ankles (so I won't trip) and belt is not too small. The chest fits well too, but overall, I'd recommend wearing a tank top underneath it as the fabric is a bit on the thin side. 10/10 would recommend." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Love, love, love this dress! I'm a preschool teacher and this dress is a huge hit with the kids every time I wear it. I'm 5'9", 170 lbs, and typically wear a large. I ordered a large and it fit perfectly. The length is also nice; being tall, I usually have to worry about dresses being ultra-short, but this one hits right above my knees. I already have more prints in my cart that I'm excited to buy!" —Brittany

Price: $18.99+ (available in sizes XS-5X and in 36 prints)

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "This dress is amazing! I loved wearing it. I get compliments on it every time I wear it.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "I LOVE this dress!! I'm 5'11" and usually wear a size 8 and I ordered the large. It fit very well. I had a little gap at the top button on the bust, but nothing a safety pin couldn't fix. I wore it with a petticoat underneath to give it more volume at the skirt and I paired it with a red belt. I got many compliments at work and it's a fun dress to wear! I sort of felt like Ms. Frizzle." —Lorena Flores-Sanz

Price: $26.99+ (available in sizes S-L and in two prints)

13. An adorable polka dot and floral shirtdress that's a polished, school-appropriate length without being frumpy.

Amazon

Promising review: "I love this dress. It's cool and comfortable — perfect for the hot temperature where I live while still being professional. I'm 5'9" so finding work-appropriate dresses is a challenge. This one is a great length — appropriate for work but also cute enough for a brunch date with the girls. I have a bigger chest compared to my waist and hips and often I struggle with button-down dresses and shirts because the buttons gape at my bust. Not an issue with this dress. I'm usually a size 4 and the small in this dress fit perfectly." —ogs901

Price: $22.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in five prints)

14. A cozy polka dot T-shirt dress you can wear on the first day with a statement necklace and flats and through winter with tights and boots.

Price: $19.99+ (available in sizes S-XL and in three colors)

15. A twirl-worthy printed midi that's picture-day perfect, but also date-night perfect, party perfect, just-a-regular-day perfect, etc.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "It's a beautiful dress! If you order this dress make sure to buy a size up from what you normally wear. Overall though, this dress was amazing. The fabric os so comfortable and I received so many complements! Worth the money." —EG

16. A sleek sweater dress so you can ace the test of looking stylish while still surviving your school's blasting AC.

amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I was looking for a sweater dress to wear for work: I am VERY happy with the fit of this dress. It’s fitted enough to look professional but not so fitted to look inappropriate for work. My normal size fit perfectly. I highly recommend this fab dress!" —Joy(euse)

Price: $49.99 (available in sizes XS-XL and in four colors)

17. A striped T-shirt dress that even the toughest graders will give an A+ in comfort and cuteness. The pockets earn it extra credit.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "I so love this dress! The material is soft and it is sooo comfortable. I'm six feet tall and always have trouble finding dresses that hit me at knee length. I was delighted to try this on and have it it hit right below my knees. I can't wait to order a second one." —Karen Williams

Price: $23.99 (available in sizes S-XL and in 10 colors)

18. A Donna Morgan cheery cherry-print number, which, when ~pitted~ against the other options in your work wardrobe, will win every time. Besides, it's time to break out of the "apples are the only fruit for teachers" stereotype, anyway.

Amazon

Promising review: "This dress is perfect! The fit is just as I expected based on other Donna Morgan dresses I have. The bust is not too tight, so there's no gaping or buttons coming loose. I added a red stretchy belt at the waist and a navy waist length sweater and got compliments wherever I went. I'm 5'2" and the length was just below my knees. The sleeves are generous enough to not be tight. This is just a fun print with the cherries. The colors are vibrant and the background is pure white, not off-white." —TerieB

Price: $52.99+ (available in sizes 0-16 and in two prints)

19. And finally, a truly amazing Ms. Frizzle-inspired dress for when you're ready to take chances, make mistakes, and get messy. Your students will be so glad they didn't stay home today.
