How would you accessorise this dress?

I’m thinking matt black wrap and bag, but that seems a bit boring. Maybe a furry stole thing would be better?

Also, all my jewellery is silver, but maybe its sparkly enough without any?

Thanks :)

It's pretty sparkly. You look amazing.

Depends on the gig but a stole would look good. Do you have one already? Grey would look good.

I don't think it needs anything else. Definitely not a wrap. I would try to get a clutch to match (rather than contrast) and some understated jewellery (little simple pendant and bracelets). You look stunning!

Thank you both!

I only want a wrap or something to cover my upper arms for during photos at the beginning. They don’t look too bad here, but they’re massive!

I’ll take a look in Claire’s or somewhere for some cheap bracelets/ bangles :)

I’d do a full on Marilyn - she wore fur and diamonds. It’s not a dress for a wall flower so I’d go the whole hog.
What occasion is it for? It looks lovely on you.

A bolero jacket maybe, you can get those in fur.

You look great, such a gorgeous dress! I wouldn't go for black, how about white/cream for the jacket and bag, or same colour as the dress but matte (not sparkly). Is the dress gold or more of a peachy rose pink type colour?

The only jewellery I would wear with that fab dress is earrings, and maybe a bracelet.

Not black for stole or wrap. Cream or pale grey would look better.

Yes, just long earrings, Darcy Bussell style

The only fur thing I have is black but my mum might have something I can borrow.

It’s a slightly pinky gold, not a colour I’d ever go for usually but the sequinned swayed me.

It’s for a ball. We go every year, and I like to try and out-do my dress from the previous year. As DP is changing job this will be the last year we go, so I want to really dress up!

You look incredible!!! Cracking figure and beautiful dress.
I don't think it needs much in the way of jewellery...I'd go simple, rose gold tones perhaps. And something lighter than the dress in a wrap, as others have suggested. I think black would be too heavy and take away from the dress.

Wow! It's amazing on you. Fab figure. Lighter colour for the wrap, stole, bolero. White fur would be fab!

Another vote for a light fur wrap. You look incredible!

Wow, what a dress! Yes, yes, yes to a white fur stole.

Earrings and bracelet only - preferably a statement 'diamond' cuff.

Please post a pic of yourself in your finery when you go to the ball Smile
