As a 5’0” editor, I often have trouble shopping for jeans or maxi skirts. But when it comes to dresses, my closet is chock-full of them, especially for fall. Whether they’re knitted or suede, I find there are so many more options for us petite gals. The length is super important, so I look for styles that lay nicely past the knee or graze right by the ankle. Since my favorite time of the year is here, I went on the hunt to find the best fall dresses for petites—starting at $24.
