As fate would have it, I’m once again obsessed with the It store of my past: Abercrombie & Fitch. Not only do they have the best basics in town (hello, linen shorts and jeans), but they also have an impressive menswear of andplus-size selections as well. Though the iconic brand has an expansive range of pieces, their dresses are where they truly shine, IMO. After careful consideration of customer reviews and best sellers, I compiled a list of the absolute best dresses at Abercrombie & Fitch for any occasion, from a relaxing weekend off to a snazzy black-tie event.

1. Abercrombie & Fitch Tie-Back Babydoll Maxi Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

Associate Commerce Editor Natalie LaBarbera already owns this midi in one color, but she’s been eyeing an autumnal version to add to her collection. “I adore this golden yellow hue, especially with fall coming up quickly!” she says. As for the fit, “it’s super comfortable with the flowy babydoll cut, but still flattering. And the linen/cotton material is breathable but thick enough for cooler weather thanks to the full-length lining.” The straps are adjustable with a chic tie in back, and there are two side pockets as well.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 53 percent linen, 47 percent cotton

Best Midi Dress

2. Abercrombie & Fitch Mila Stretch Midi Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

Take it from the French, every wardrobe needs a “wear everywhere” midi dress like this one. The cotton-blend material is wonderfully soft with just enough stretch, and that square neckline is so flattering. The thick straps—which are adjustable in back—and higher back also work well with a regular T-shirt bra so you don’t need to stress about your undergarments. Add in some handy pockets, a timeless floral design and the fact that it comes in three different lengths, and you’ve got yourself a true must-have midi.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 98 percent cotton, 2 percent elastane

Best Minidress

3. Abercrombie & Fitch Short-Sleeve Ruffle Skort

Abercrombie & Fitch

The boho trend is still going strong headed into fall 2025, and this ruffled mini fits the bill perfectly. It actually has built-in shorts to avoid any accidental Marilyn Monroe moments as you walk, but looks like a chic little minidress from all angles. The lace detailing gives this frock majorly luxe vibes, and makes it easy to dress up or down for summer or fall. For now, stick with some strappy sandals and a woven straw tote. Then throw on a wide brown leather belt and some coordinating knee-high boots come peak autumn.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 100 percent cotton

4. Abercrombie & Fitch Camille Strapless Godet Midi Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

“I truly cannot get over how gorgeous these polka dots are,” raves Editor Abby Hepworth. “The smaller scale and gentle pleating reads so elevated and elegant, I can’t get enough.” That said, if polka dots aren’t your vibe, this midi also comes in three floral prints and an orangey coral hue. Whichever color you opt for, they all come with removable adjustable straps, so you can switch up the neckline on the fly. And the floaty material makes it easy to dress this beauty up for cocktails or a wedding reception. That said, an oversize blazer and loafers are all you need to take this miid to the office, and simple flip-flops and a button-up worn as a jacket make for an ideal weekend look. My only gripe? It doesn’t have pockets.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 100 percent polyester

Most Comfortable

5. Abercrombie & Fitch Dipped-Waist Smocked Midi Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

“Love the fit of this dress!” gushes an Abercrombie & Fitch shopper. “The slight V-shape at the waist is incredibly flattering, the top is tight enough to not need a bra (even with a larger chest) and the adjustable straps are such a nice touch.” This poplin maxi dress is one of the best dresses to own, especially on those days when you can’t be bothered to put an outfit together. The flowy frock features a smocked bodice, so it has a comfortable amount of give around your stomach. Make sure to snag it while you can, because many colorways and prints are already selling out.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular, tall
  • Materials: 60 percent cotton, 40 percent polyester

Best for Summer

6. Abercrombie & Fitch Linen-Blend Button Skort

Abercrombie & Fitch

Every August I find myself getting overly excited about the fall trends to come, but there’s still plenty summer left to enjoy. And what better fabric to brace the high temperatures and high humidity than linen? The simple shift silhouette and spaghetti straps are totally timeless, but there are two details that make this mini stand out from the crowd of other simple summer frocks. First is the vertical line of buttons along the side, which add a vintage ‘60s vibe that’s super trendy right now. The second is a pair of built-in shorts that help combat thigh chafe without breaking stride. Yeah, I’ll take one in every color, thanks!

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 53 percent linen, 47 percent cotton

Best for Fall

7. Abercrombie & Fitch Mara Denim Midi Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

If you just can’t wait to get a headstart on your fall wardrobe (honestly, same), I highly recommend this denim midi. It’s currently available in three different washes—black, indigo blue and the medium blue pictured above—and no matter which one you pick, there are just so many ways to style it. The buttons down the front make this such a great layering piece that can be worn over a turtleneck or button-up, or even unbuttoned entirely and worn as a vest. And the material has just enough stretch to hug your curves beautifully.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 99 percent cotton, 1 percent elastane

Best for the Office

8. Abercrombie & Fitch Mara Short-Sleeve Mini Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

Looking to upgrade your work wardrobe? This mini may be short, but the classic silhouette and posh detailing make it a great option for less conservative offices, especially with flats, loafers or a small kitten heel. It’s made of the same suiting material as A&F’s iconic blazers, and the buttons are fully functional, giving you room to play with the silhouette. It’s even machine washable, so you don’t have to stress about making time to visit the cleaners!

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XL
  • Lengths: petite and regular
  • Materials: 66 percent recycled polyester, 32 percent viscose, 2 percent elastane

Best Wedding Guest Dress

9. Abercrombie & Fitch Cowl Neck Draped Maxi Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

The best wedding guest dresses are those that can fit multiple dress codes and seasons, giving you maximum wearability—and this dress does exactly that, all while looking totally gorgeous. Available in six different colors/prints, this satin stunner is incredibly flattering thanks to the cowl neck and midi length. The back features a gorgeous scoop silhouette that’s still bra-friendly, and that slit up the front goes just high enough to make it easy to dancing but won’t scandalize Aunt Maureen. And despite the fact that the material really has no stretch to it, reviewers say this dress fits true to size.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 100 percent polyester

If bright colors and bold patterns aren’t your thing, this black maxi is a stunning option for all kinds of formal events. As part of Abercrombie’s new Bra-Free collection, it has a built-in bra with removable cups and additional structure around the bust to help you feel supported. And the ruching around the bodice is incredibly flattering, not to mention comfy. The thin straps are adjustable in back, and there are three lengths available to ensure a perfect fit. P.S. This dress also comes in four other hues, if you want something a bit more showy than classic black.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite, regular and tall
  • Materials: 100 percent polyester

Best Workout Dress

11. Abercrombie & Fitch YPB sculptLUX Cross-Back Mini Dress

Abercrombie & Fitch

This workout dress is consistently one of the most popular pieces at Abercrombie & Fitch, and I *knew* it was worth the hype once my colleagues started singing its praises. It’s stretchy and soft, thanks to the blend of nylon, elastane and polyester, and the shoulder straps are adjustable. There are also built-in shorts underneath the dress and a hidden pocket that can hold your cellphone, credit cards and keys while you’re on the go. It’s one of those comfy dresses you can wear anytime and anywhere, whether you're making your way through an airport, headed to the tennis courts or simply grabbing coffee around the neighborhood.

Fast Facts

  • Size Range: XXS to XXL
  • Lengths: petite and regular
  • Materials: 78 percent polyester, 22 percent elastane
