1. Black bodycon dress

The shape of dress is as simple and modest as possible, but what keeps this outfit from looking too basic is the clever use of red accessories that take the whole look to the next level.

2. Chequered dress with cap sleeves

Chequered fabrics are a popular choice for office wear: they are far from being boring and allow you to rock your favourite colours, but at the same time they’re perfectly suited for the corporate style limitations.

3. Patterned sleeveless dress

Patterns are truly an office girl’s best friend: they allow you to rock some of the latest trends and your own design preferences while staying perfectly within the guidelines for modern corporate wear.

4. Green dress with cutouts

Cutouts are a risky choice for most office settings, but if you can’t resist the temptation of wearing a daring dress with cutouts to work, simply accessorize your look with an office-friendly blazer for maximum style points.

5. Grey office gown

Grey is one of the most common choices for corporate wear, but plain grey dresses often risk looking too boring even for office. However, with the right fabric and cut of the dress, as well as the use of decorations, you will be the most fashionable person in your workplace.

6. Long-sleeved yellow dress

Autumn is the perfect time to add a long-sleeved yellow dress to your office wardrobe, and the mustard yellow colour is simply divine.

7. Beige pleated dress

Beige office dresses are like grey corporate gowns: they need some elements to elevate them. In this case, it’s the trendy pleated style of the dress.

8. Striped long-sleeved dress

Not all striped patterns are a good choice for office, but this elegant three-colour striped dress with a shirt neckline and a belt is one of the best office outfits we’ve seen this year.

9. Peplum green dress

Peplum shows no signs of slowing down as the favourite dress type of Nigerian fashionistas, and it looks simply fantastic when used in office wear!

10. Black and white dress

The next office-friendly dress is a play on the traditional black and white corporate uniforms, but the striking red pumps and the gold jewelry noticeably upgrade the whole look.

11. Yellow pencil dress

If your corporate wear guidelines allow it, a pop of colour in your Monday office look can cheer you up for the whole week!

12. Navy coat dress

Coat dresses are extremely popular around the world: you’ll even see them on British princesses. They are also one of the hottest corporate gown trends of the year.

13. Ankara office dress

A Nigerian woman’s wardrobe can hardly be imagined without Ankara, and the addition of white cuffs and collar makes it a fabulous choice for office wear.

14. Pastel office look

Not many ladies would dare to wear an all-white look to work, which is why pairing two off-white shades in one outfit is a very smart choice.

15. Black gown with lace

If you can’t help but include your beloved lace fabric into your new office gown, here is a subtle yet effective way to do it.

16. Striped long-sleeved gown

Stripes remain a chic choice for office outfits, especially when they’re used in an exquisite dress design like this one.

17. White dress with a belt

On its own this white bodycon dress would be stylish yet not very memorable, but the addition of a leather belt instantly makes it more interesting.

18. Puff-sleeved dress

Add a touch of youthful style to your office gown with the help of puff sleeves, which can be both short and long, depending on the season.

19. Green shirt dress

We would love this green shirt dress on its own, but the fabulous shoes and accessories make it truly unforgettable.

20. Striped bodycon dress

You could easily imagine this dress on all kinds of occasions, but it also fits perfectly into modern office style lines.
