Old Navy’s Best Lightweight Dresses to Nail a Summer-to-Fall Transition, All Under $50

Fall is on the horizon and it's a time of mixed emotions for fans of sundresses and white jeans (myself included). Of course, there's no reason to change a wardrobe just 'cause the calendar says September — especially when the forecast is still shouting August — but it's tempting to look for pieces that can serve up more than one or two more wears in 2021.

Right now, we're loving dresses that are lightweight enough to wear when it's warm but also look cute layered up as temperatures fall. Think swingy minis to top with jackets, and puff-sleeved midis that look sweet under a sweater, too. Plus, if you're still working from home, you can easily wear any as Zoom-appropriate house-dresses year-round.

Ahead, check out 20 Old Navy options we're loving now and later. And, best yet: Not one is more than $50 either.
