There’s a sweet spot in every woman’s wardrobe; that place where comfort meets confidence, where modesty feels effortless and style doesn’t ask you to try too hard. That’s exactly where our collection of knee-length dresses lives.
At Lands’ End, we design for real life, and our knee-length summer dresses are no exception. They're for the woman who wants to show a little leg without giving too much away—who values movement, coverage and a fit that flatters. Whether you're dressing up or dialing it back, these knee-length styles meet you in the middle in the best possible way.
A knee-length casual dress doesn’t need to disappear when the leaves start to fall. In fact, it might just become your favorite layering piece. Throw on a soft cardigan or structured blazer to add warmth without losing that easy silhouette. Slip into tall boots or tights for added coverage, or top things off with a scarf for a cozy, pulled-together look.
Many of our knee-length dresses with sleeves transition perfectly into cooler weather—just add your favorite fall textures and go. When the base is this versatile, layering becomes less of a chore and more of a creative ritual.
At Lands’ End, we believe modesty doesn’t mean sacrificing style, and feeling covered should never mean feeling hidden. That’s why we offer knee-length dresses for women in a range of silhouettes, so you can find the one that fits not just your body, but your life. Whether you prefer a hem that lands just above or just below the knee, or you love the ease of a casual everyday piece, our collection makes room for it all.
Our plus-size knee-length dresses are designed with your shape in mind; not just sized up, but thoughtfully proportioned for comfort and confidence. From cute knee-length dresses with sleeves to jersey staples you can dress up or down, these pieces feel as good as they look.
Petite doesn’t mean limited. Our petite knee-length dresses are thoughtfully proportioned to fit smaller frames without overwhelming them. You’ll find the same comfort, detail, and everyday elegance, just scaled for your perfect fit.
Just a hint shorter, our above-the-knee dresses offer a breezy, leg-forward look that still feels refined. They’re perfect for warmer days or layered up when the temperature dips—showing a little more, but never too much.
For those who prefer a bit more length, our below-the-knee dresses bring graceful movement and understated elegance. These are go-to options for more formal moments or when you simply want extra coverage without extra fuss.
Easy to wear, easy to love. Our full spectrum of casual dresses blends comfort with style, making them ideal for errands, travel or days when you want to look put together with minimal effort. With soft fabrics, simple silhouettes and thoughtful details, they bring just the right amount of structure to your off-duty days.
