I would go for red as I love teaming it with navy.

PetiteBateau · 12/07/2015 19:46

Emerald green

pommedeterre · 12/07/2015 19:48

Metallic!

ManicPixieDream · 12/07/2015 19:50

Have you got a pic of the dress? How have they styled it? What were you thinking of wearing with it? I still think red though.

It depends on the navy and style of dress.

My first preference is patent nude with navy.

Metallics are good for lifting navy but it depends on the tone of navy as gold can be too brash, silver a bit "disco".

Cream can also look chic and you can wear a cream jacket too.

Red is good but so hard to match and there's nothing worse than mismatched reds...

Coral.

Evilpixie · 12/07/2015 20:25

Silver?

Lovely dress Smile

Oh and if pink then I like the strappy sandals the best

OhMittens · 13/07/2015 22:18

I'm not sure those strappy sandals suit the dress (just my personal opinion) and they look pretty uncomfortable for a long event, being so high and strappy. ASOS do a pink court called Southy which are a great colour (a very modern lipstick fuchsia - the video gives a better idea of the colour than the pics) and the shape is modern too.
