Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
I’ve been thinking a lot about “starter” wardrobes for folks just starting out in the workforce lately, and when I came across this short-sleeved dress from Banana Republic Factory, all I could think was “I would have worn that at least once a week when I was a junior associate.”
A basic black dress that fits well is worth its weight in gold when you’re trying to build a professional wardrobe from scratch. Wear this one on its own, under a cropped cardigan, with a non-matching blazer — the sky’s the limit. And if your budget allows, grab the blue color too!
The dress is $54 at Banana Republic Factory and comes in regular sizes XS-XL and petite sizes XXS-L.
