Shabbat dinner calls for something a little more special than everyday wear, but it still has to be comfortable for a long meal, a walk to friends, and a toddler on your lap. Here is how we put together modest Shabbat outfits for fall and winter, using pieces from our new Fall Winter 2026 collection.
What makes a good Shabbat dress?
A good Shabbat dress has three things: coverage you never need to adjust, a fabric that does not wrinkle in the time between candle lighting and dessert, and a silhouette that looks elegant without feeling formal. In practice that means long or three-quarter sleeves, a neckline that does not need a shell, and a midi or maxi length that stays below the knee when you sit.
Five modest Shabbat outfits for fall and winter
1. The knit maxi with heeled boots
The Aura Maxi Dress in Ja'Teal is a soft A-line knit with a removable tie belt and a discreet side slit. Pair it with heeled ankle boots and layered gold necklaces, and add a longline coat for the walk home.
2. Black, but never boring
The Empress Maxi Dress in Black is the dress you reach for when you want to look pulled together in thirty seconds. Add a statement earring and a structured bag for Friday night, or a cardigan and flats for Shabbat lunch.
3. Rich color for the holidays
Merlot is the color of the season. The Atelier Puff-Sleeve Dress has a relaxed sweatshirt feel with puff sleeves that make it dressy enough for a festive table.
4. The elevated hoodie dress
Hoodie dresses are not just for Sunday errands. The Serenity Hoodie Dress in Plum works for a relaxed Shabbat afternoon with friends, styled with clean white sneakers or suede loafers.
5. The easy everyday midi
For a casual Friday night at home, the Seraphine Midi Dress in Charcoal is loose, soft and easy to layer over a turtleneck when it gets cold.
Layering tips for cold Shabbat walks
- Choose a coat that is longer than your dress, or one that ends well above the hem, so the lengths do not compete.
- A fitted turtleneck under a knit dress adds warmth without adding bulk.
- Opaque tights in a color close to your boots keep the line long and modest.
