STYLING A SHIFT DRESS IN WINTER

There is so much fun to be had styling and layering a shift dress in winter. From statement prints to classic cuts, these stylish pieces can work for your wardrobe throughout the year. Like layering this jacquard shift dress in the summer to styling it with a cardigan and tights in the winter, there are so many strengths of a shift dress.

To allow the beautiful neutral coloured print to be the focal point, the dress was styled with all black. Firstly for winter, tights with dresses, especially shorter lengths are essential. Then for style and warmth, an embellished black and gold knit cardigan was layered over the dress. For a feminine and flattering silhouette, a waist belt nicely ties in the waist. Finally the black platform knee boots are not only weather appropriate but sophisticated too.

Black and gold make a fabulously rich colour combination and given the time of year, make a great seasonal look too. For another fabulous winter styling idea for a shift dress, try wearing one with a fur coat for a bit of luxe as shown in styling a peplum dress.
