There are two ways to stress syllables here, first the second syllable (dress) or the first one (ad), but not both at the same time. There is no hard and fast rule.
The general rule is to add -er to a one-syllable word to form the comparative degree. For example, "fast" becomes "faster" and "big" becomes "bigger". However, there are a few exceptions and irregular forms, such as "good" becoming "better" and "bad" becoming "worse".
