Summer dress is actually for winter...help!

[FreezingMySocksOff]

Bought a Hobbs dress from eBay. Thought it would be for summer but the Cotten/silk mix has a wool feel to it and it is too heavy for summer!

How would you style this for winter/autumn/spring? It's a maxi dress and close fitting. Highlights curves.

I'm totally thrown by the fabric!

black leather jacket, white trainers

Or with a cropped black jumper or sweatshirt

Move to Scotland and wear it in the summer. 😃

I would need thick tights in cooler weather and I don’t know how it would work with that dress.

Might be good when weather is transitioning between seasons.

Roll neck underneath it, black ankle boots, leather jacket?

[FreezingMySocksOff]

Ok will def have to try the roll neck and cropped jumper ideas! I tried it with my leather jacket and it just looked a bit too harsh against the colours! It's such a weird dress...I really did think summer when I looked at it!

Cotton

Pick up the gingery tan colours with boots / crop jacket / cropped cardigan ( maybe suede or faux suede )
If the black is too harsh

[TheFlis12345]

I would go denim jacket and tan boots, it needs something to lift the black and tone with the colours of the skirt.

Ooo yes! I hadn't thought about tan! I will definitely go on a hunt for that next week! Thank you to everyone who has been helpful!
