Women's Business Casual

Women's Business Casual Clothing

Business casual for women should feel polished without feeling stiff. This collection gathers the pieces we reach for on workdays: button up tops and blouses, soft knit tops and sweaters, cardigans, dresses and easy pull-on pants, chosen to mix and match into work clothes for women that still feel like you. Start with our blouses and button up tops or our sweaters.

Business Casual Tops

Business casual tops do most of the work. A ribbed button up, a boat neck knit or a lace-trimmed long sleeve looks finished on its own and layers well under a cardigan or vest. On colder days, add a structured knit cardigan or a piece from our coats and jackets.

Putting the Look Together

For easy business casual outfits, pair a knit top with wide leg pants or straight leg pull-on pants, or let a dress do the work with a cardigan over it. Finish with shoes and boots and simple jewelry. Many offices welcome dark denim on casual Fridays, too.

Sizing and Fit

Many styles come in size inclusive regular and curvy sizes, but sizing varies by style and some pieces run relaxed or oversized, so check each product page for the size range and fit notes. Shop more curvy and plus size clothing, watch our models, including our curvy model, try on new arrivals during our live sales, or see the try-on clip in the Avery Mae app.

What are the best business casual tops for women?

Button up tops, blouses and soft knit tops with a clean neckline are the easiest to wear. They work on their own or under a cardigan and go from the office to dinner.

It depends on your workplace. Many offices allow dark, clean denim, especially on Fridays. Pair it with a blouse or cardigan to keep the look polished.
