The chic puff-sleeve dress
We’re firm believers that polka-dots are an all-year-round staple, and our wear-anywhere tiered midi dress promises great cost-per-wear value. For an everyday look that still packs a punch, try styling with cowboy boots. A swipe of red lipstick adds the final flourish whether you’re headed to the office or for a celebratory dinner with friends. Slip on over thermal tops and leggings for a discreet layer of warmth.
The cosy knitted dress
We’re planning on cocooning ourselves in comfortingly soft wool and cashmere dresses all winter to beat the chill in style. Thankfully, ribbed and crinkled textures are hot sartorial news this season, along with body-conscious shapes such as fitted silhouettes and belted waists. Set a luxe agenda with Jaeger’s wool-rich jumper dress with cashmere – the suits-all shade and figure-skimming cut make it a sophisticated addition to your line-up of winter dresses. Chunky Chelsea boots and a graphic clutch bag keep things interesting.
The versatile slip dress
Practical-chic is key to building a capsule wardrobe, which is great if you like nothing more than wearing your favourite looks on high rotation. We recommend investing in a minimalist slip dress to layer over lightweight polo-neck tops and T-shirts, or under chunky cable-knit jumpers. A velvet slip dress has potential for fuss-free outfitting and could be your most-worn item this season – simply dress it down with trainers for day and up with platform heels for evening. A sharp tuxedo jacket and eye-catching jewellery will elevate a slip dress on nights out.
