A good shirtdress should be in every woman's wardrobe, it is a classic item as basic as the little black dress. For me, there is only one place to look for a classic well-made shirtdress with style and class- Diane von Furstenberg. Furstenberg is known for her shirtdresses and she puts out a few in just about every collection. A shirtdress can be casual, formal, chic, sexy, or professional and can be worn in any season, depending on color and fabric. There are several variations on the shirtdress, some are more like long cotton tees, but the kind I'm talking about has a collar and buttons going down all or part of the front. Keep reading this fashion buying guide to shirtdresses by Diane Von Furstenberg to learn which current shirtdress buys are multi-seasonal, where to buy Furstenberg shirtdresses, and where to buy similar but cheaper shirtdresses.

Furstenberg is pretty expensive so you may only buy one or two in a lifetime but her classic look and professional tailoring will last. Her designs are so classic they're trendy; you'll never be out of fashion while wearing a Furstenberg shirtdress. If you are an internet shopping hound you can find decent sales on her dresses in the area of $150. $150 is still a little steep but you only need to have one or two in your wardrobe and a good shirtdress can be worn for any occasion. I highly recommend not buying from her site directly if you are cost conscious, try discount designer sites like Shop Bop or Net-A-Porter instead. To cut down on cost it also helps to be choosey-find one shirtdress that can be worn in spring, summer, and fall and another one just for winter. And there is always the buy at the end of a season method, you can find Furstenberg dresses for under $200 if you do this.
