Shop Cute Shift and Sheath Dresses for Women at Gap

Take easy-going style to the next level with shift dresses from Gap.

Dresses That Go Anywhere

Nothing beats simple dresses that travel well and suit many occasions. Sheath dresses are a timeless favorite because of their endless versatility. Invest in pieces you can wear again and again to many different events and make the most of your wardrobe. Pencil dresses were once reserved for dressier affairs but in Modal, Tencel and cotton take on a simplicity that suits the office or the weekend. Cute shift dresses make it easy to get dressed quickly. When you're working with a wardrobe that works in most seasons, there's no limit to how many ways you can style the same dress to create different looks.

Dressing Up Fitted Dresses

Take form-fitting dresses anywhere with the right styling tricks. This silhouette is sassy enough for evening or anytime you want to turn some heads. Make it party-ready with the help of a sleek ponytail, a smoky eye and a statement accessory like a massive cocktail ring or bib-style necklace. Add heels and you're set to dance the night away. Don't let fabric fool you. Cotton can definitely be suitable for night if the fit is right. Look for a shape that gently skims your body and doesn't constrict or pull. You want to be able to move with finesse across the dance floor and these lightweight options allow you to do that. You can even ditch the makeup, go for a topknot and flat sandals and sport the same frock to brunch the next morning.

Choosing Versatile Colors

Gray, black and white are the obvious favorites for most when it comes to any staples in their closet. Think outside of the box with hues like navy, light blue, olive, copper and camel. These shades are equally versatile but a bit unexpected and add some drama when paired with a leather moto jacket or a distressed denim jacket. Take basic pieces but add some edge by mixing textures for a look worthy of your favorite street style blog.

Extend your wardrobe for the better with this cool selection of go-to dress styles at Gap that work day or night.
