To ask for help with this dress?

I have fallen in love with this dress for a wedding but I need something to wear with it like a jacket for warmth and I cannot think of what would work. If I can't find something I think I'll have to freeze and wear it on its own. Please help!

Im seeing a white or black ostrichy feathery thing

Stravapalava · 24/09/2019 20:11

I agree with a feathery tippet type thing. It's a beautiful dress, where is it from? Would be perfect for a Peaky Blinders party I'm going to!

Stravapalava · 24/09/2019 20:13

something like this - more like a cape.

I’m imagining a pale green velvet stole

Cropped leather jacket

TalentedMsRipley · 24/09/2019 20:17

Peachy-pale pink feathery thing. Dress is gorgeous.

TalentedMsRipley · 24/09/2019 20:18

Where is dress from? So I can steal...

zxcvhjkl · 24/09/2019 20:18

Beautiful dress! Maybe try something like this. Don't have anything too long as it will detract from the gorgeous beading.

A sequinned, silver bolero with 3/4 length sleeves.

Lovely dress!

Well that picture didn't work. Trying again.

Ignore me, technical issues.

Hahaha88 · 24/09/2019 20:24

@Mummadeeze I like that but I don't think it will be warm enough.

@Stravapalava thank you. It's from simply be. I love that cape thing, where's it from?

@FloatingObject ooo that's different

@BikeRunSki stupid question but is a stole like a thicker scarf?

@Moominfan I thought about a leather jacket but I didn't know if it would work

@TalentedMsRipley like floating suggested you mean or something a bit different?

I found it when I google image searched - think it was a bridal shop somewhere?

Teddybear45 · 24/09/2019 20:26

You either need to suffer (the dress is gorgeous by itself) or wear a twenties style faux fur stole. I don’t think it will look good in anything else

Howlovely · 24/09/2019 20:27

Something like this? Gorgeous dress!

Ooh the Jenny packham one
It's lovely

stupid question but is a stole like a thicker scarf? A stole is like a wide scarf. In their heyday (50s) you wore it off the shoulder, covering your upper arms. But googling I see the name comes originally from the scarf thing that priests and bishops wear.
