How to wear this sack... oops, sorry, I mean dress

[roaringwater]

Via a circuitous route, I have this Toast t-shirt dress.

This is completely unlike my usual style and I'm not even convinced I like it. However, in anticipation of warm days with nothing to do but knock around at home with just a weekly trip to the hustle and bustle of Aldi, I'm interested to know how it's supposed to be worn.

It comes to about 2 inches above my knee.

Other garments?
Footwear?

Teach me your ways, Toast-fans.

And yes, I did mean to post this in S&B 🤦🏻‍♀️

a belt in the centre would give it some shape

What does it look like on? Do you not just wear it with wedges?

Looks fine to me, I like a khaki sack. I'd just wear it with birkenstocks.

Probably Birkenstock’s and a chunky leather black belt. Even just a across shoulder bag would give it a bit of shape.

These dresses often look better on than off. You just need some accessories and enjoy the freedom.

Reminds me of Meghans first outing with Archie. Personally i’d do belt and birkies or espadrilles

iron it
birks
tan
insouciance

Unless you are very slim a belt will make it look like a sack of potatoes with a rope round it. It looks fine as it is. It's meant to be loose.

Do you have any long, brightly coloured scarves? Or big, chunky jewellery?

Footwear- anything flat will be fine apart from trainers. Canvas shoes, espadrilles, flat boots (any length) ballet flats.

I’m sorry but that looks only fit for cutting up into rags. Have you actually tried it on?

I think you have to be thin and flat chested to get away with that dress.

Try it on - it’s probably fine loose with sandals and perhaps a statement necklace.

I like it!

No belt, white converse or trainers.

God not Birkenstocks. Maybe tan mules, clean white trainers ( if your legs are goo) or espadrilles? But my honest answer is tuck it into jeans and wear a jumper over it!

Do not put a belt with it. It is meant to be that shape, and on a lot of figures it will be very flattering. You'll ruin the line of it with a belt.

Some tan sandals, long necklace and a small across the body bag

Ooh! I really like that OP. I’d go for tan leather flip flops or delicate sandals, funky cuff type bangle and necklace.
No belt, you’ll look like a sack of spuds unless you’re a teenage model and even then it’s dodgy territory!

What @Ihatemyseleffordoingthis said. Although I’d also wear White trainers. Tan essential.

I like it, it's classy. Needs tanned legs, big sunglasses, I'd wear wedges or tan leather flip flops with it and my silver cuff.

Yep - no belt, Toast stuff especially is often designed to be loose and as pp have said, usually is much more flattering off the hanger! Accessorise with some big earrings and a scarf.

I think it’s really cute. I wouldn’t wear a belt with it, just keep it loose. I would wear with layered gold jewellery, bag with a long strap,sunglasses, white trainers/nice flips flops/ leather sandals. Would look good with a tan if possible. If you’re feeling brave I would wear some doc martins and ankle socks!
