Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this dress.
Promising review: "This dress had me at pockets! What a great dress, especially for work! It has pockets on both sides, a work-appropriate hemline, and the material is the kind where you can sit for hours, but it'll never show a wrinkle! I'm 5'6" and 150 lbs and the medium fits great. With wedges, it's the perfect outfit for work: comfy and practical yet classy." —AprilAries
Price: $18.99+ (available in sizes S-3XL and in 36 colors and prints)
2. A cute colorblocked style sure to stand out in a sea of blah blazers and solid sheaths.
It's got over 1,000 positive reviews!
Promising review: "This dress has superpowers. I look and feel like a goddess in it. It's so professional, lightweight, and durable. It's really well-made and perfect for the office." —Harlot O'Scara
Price: $26.99+ (available in sizes S-5X and in 13 styles)
3. A knockout collared bodycon number that might get you mistaken for the CEO, even if you're still an intern.
Reviewers recommend sizing up!
Promising review: "It's so classy and sleek and perfect. I feel like a million bucks every time I put it on. I typically wear it to the office with a good pair of heels and a pretty necklace. It's form fitting, so it isn't frumpy, but it has a low hemline and a high neckline that make it perfect for work or for classy nights out. I HIGHLY recommend this dress." —Chloe
Price: $25.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in three colors and two sleeve lengths)
4. A geometric-print frock ready to get your office wardrobe into perfect shape.
Promising review: "I love this dress! It's got a great fit and design. The belt allows you to cinch it to your body's specifications. I wore it to my birthday dinner and also to work. I got SO many compliments each time. Dress it up or make it more business-like, but BUY IT!" —BAM
Price: $18.99 (available in sizes S-3XL and in seven colors and prints)
5. A 3/4 sleeve bodycon number that may not be what your boss meant when they said you needed to earn your stripes, but is darn impressive nonetheless.
Promising review: "This dress is awesome. I work in a professional environment and received compliments all day. I'm 5'4", 125lbs, and a 32A, and the medium fit great. I didn't want it to be too tight since I'm wearing it to work. It feels kind of like a soft T-shirt, and I liked that the arms weren't too tight. The blue is a very true blue. I wore with bright red/coral pumps and felt very colorful! :)" —Demyan
Price: $21.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in 19 colors and prints)
6. A timeless faux wrap dress sure to have you saying "that's a wrap" on your search for the perfect office outfit.
Promising review: "This is my new favorite, and I will definitely be ordering a few different colors. It's a great length for work — pair with a little tank top underneath to cover the bust, and it's perfect for the office. Or opt for no tank and sexy heels for a date night outfit. I'm very pleased with this dress." —A
Price: $35.19 (available in sizes XS-XL and 43 colors and prints)
7. A classic wrap dress everyone will think you paid at least twice as much for.
This wardrobe staple is actually from one of Amazon's in-house fashion brands!
Promising review: "I have a Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress that I love and it cost me four times what this dress cost. I love this just as much and it's actually more flattering. It's well-made and looks great — you can't go wrong ordering this one!" —Coco L
Get it from Amazon for $45 (available sizes XS-XL and in four colors and prints). Find it in plus sizes here.
8. A vintage-y plaid stunner worthy of a Hitchcock heroine. Just do me a favor and don't steal any money from your boss so you can run away with your boyfriend, okay?
And maybe steer clear of motel showers?
Promising review: "This dress fits amazingly well, the material is thick, and the belt really accents my waist. This dress has a bit of give in it, so it fits just right over the chest area. I do have a little bit of room in the waist area, but it's not noticeable at all and just makes the dress really comfortable to wear. The belt fit around my waist. When I wore the dress to work I got tons of compliments, and when my coworker asked me where I got the dress, she was shocked when I said Amazon and told her the actual price. This dress totally makes me feel like walking sunshine when I wear it (I got the yellow flowered one)." —Amazon Customer
Price: $16.88+ (available in sizes S-XL and in 16 colors and prints)
9. A quirky-chic swan- or flamingo-printed situation, because workwear does NOT have to be boring. A fun dress like this will prevent you from ending up in a fowl mood, even when you're assigned a super annoying task.
Promising review: "This dress looks so great! It fits like a dream and I've gotten so many compliments each time I wear it. It's great for work or just walking around town. The fabric is thick and rich and doesn't feel cheap — especially for the amazing price!" —AKP
Price: $6.99+ (available in sizes S-5X and in 14 designs)
10. A scalloped fit-and-flare dress so you can look fab without having to shell out a lot of dough.
Promising review: "I'm giving it five stars because everything is great about this dress! The fit and shape define your body very well, and the A-line cut makes it look neat and perfect for office wear." —Amazon Customer
Price: $13.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in six colors)
11. A breezy long-sleeved midi for those days when you wish you could just wear a tee and sweats to work — this baby is basically just as comfy.
The review below is a really big mood:
Promising review: "This is the perfect dress to wear for the first day of your period, when you are so bloated you just wanna wear sweatpants, but you still have to go to work. I love this dress and am getting one in every color. It's fitted at the top, so you could still wear a belt with it to cinch it in a little bit, but it's also very loose in the belly. I love it!" —Brittany Andreasen
Price: $9.89+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 24 colors and prints)
12. A gorgeous lace shirtdress to bring a little extra glam to every day.
Promising review: "This dress is beautiful! The quality is much better than I expected. The skirt and sleeves are a very nice, heavy fabric and the lace is sturdy and pretty. I wore this to work and was complimented no less than five times, four of which were by the same person who kept saying over and over how much she loved the dress, how well it fit me, and how it made her day because it brought a bit of personality to the morning. I found it to be incredibly comfortable to wear. The fabric is a little stretchy, so it fits you comfortably without being tight or restrictive. If I saw this dress in a store, I would expect to see it priced at around $50+. 10/10 I recommend this dress!" —Caz
Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in three colors)
13. A ruffled number that can easily take you from a very important meeting to a very fun happy hour.
Promising review: "I have an oval body shape. Usually clothes are too large in the shoulder/bust area in order to accommodate the waist and hips, but this dress was a dream. It's comfortable and sassy, and I'm contemplating getting another in a different color. I received several compliments." —Dawn
Price: $88+ (available in sizes 0X-5X and in seven colors)
14. A sleek sheath dress with cool paneled detailing to ensure your boardroom doesn't become a bored room — your fab style will keep everyone's attention.
15. A cute floral number you can easily dress up or down.

Price: $19.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in six colors)
16. A flirty fit-and-flare with ruffled sleeves to bring drama of the sartorial variety, not the nasty kind caused by Susan from accounting gossiping in the break room.
Promising review: "This dress is PERFECT! Need a date night dress? This is it. Need a fun day dress? This is perfect. It even works for work! The length goes down to my knees. It's perfectly flowy. The material isn't too heavy, and it definitely covers you. It's pretty good quality." —Ashlyn Meadows
Price: $19.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in 14 colors and prints)

Promising review: "I love this dress!! It fits like a glove and is very figure-flattering. It looks like it was purchased from a nice department store. It's appropriate for work coupled with a blazer, or you could wear it to a wedding, formal event, or fancy restaurant. I would consider purchasing it again in a different color because I like it so much." —Sheroa
Price: $29.99 (available in sizes S-XXL and in 10 colors and prints)

Price: $12.99+ (available in sizes S-3XL and in 39 colors and prints)
20. A cool pencil dress for anyone who prefers their workwear with a (literal) twist.
Promising review: "This fit exactly as I'd hoped. It's an extremely comfortable material and it looks very professional. I wore it with a blazer and was complimented on my 'suit' all day! I washed it on cold and hung it to dry and it seems to have survived. I'm going to buy another in a different color." —Emily G.
Price: $26.99+ (available in sizes 4-12 and in 11 colors and prints)

24. A swingy skater dress with laser-cut details so you'll never complain about having nothing to wear to anything ever again. Seriously, this number will make you ~cut it out~.
Promising review: "I got so many compliments at work when I wore this dress. I had to wear some bike shorts underneath so that you couldn’t see my bottom through the lacy part. Overall though, I love my dress!" —Marlene
Price: $23.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in six colors)
25. And a chic belted number you should warn your coworkers about in advance. They should buckle up for you strutting into the office and slaying.
Promising review: "I'm in love with everything about this dress! It's flattering, comfortable, and made from quality material. I love that I can dress it up with jewelry and shoes for a wedding or wear it as is/tone it down for business meetings and conferences. I would buy this again if I hadn't already!" —nomadbride
Price: $34.99 (available in sizes S-XL and in eight colors)
