What would you wear to funk this up?

[RubbishRubbishRubbish]

Or..how would YOU wear it in a funky way?

At the moment I've got as far as fishnet tights, but that's it.

Halloween 👻

Halloween?

It’s a bit gothic, don’t think it needs any funking up. Plain tights and ankle high boots would suit.

Doc martins. :)

Oh God, it's awful. Please don't.

Dr martens

You'll have to trust me that it's really nice in the flesh, and not Gothic.

Dr Martens would be great, but I haven't time to break a pair in.

Does it need funking up? There's already quite a lot going on

Don’t wear fishnets with that.

It has a lot of texture already so I don't think adding more texture eg fishnets would work.

Fishnets, chunky boots etc. I'm a goth and it really is barely goth!

Depending what for I'd probably go with block heel sandals and leather biker jacket with a chunky watch and statement earrings (probably gold / rose gold)

I love it. In fact I love it so much I wore it as a wedding dress so there .
I think it looks great with a lovely headband. It's too fussy around the neckline for much jewellery but a headband seems just right.

I love it! Where's it from?

It's from Monsoon.

Not fishnets. Too much lace. I'd wear a simple pair of black or nude stilettos and put hair in a simple chignon.

Is it navy?
If it is I would wear it with navy sheer tights and my orangey red block heels.

It's Teal.

Are you wearing it for a night out/occasion or wanting to dress it down?
To dress down it would be nice with a biker jacket and chunky boots.
For a night out I'd wear with a high heel and accessorise with nice gold dangly earrings.

I think it does have a fair bit going on already so keep would keep it simple. I second the earring suggestion as the neck detail will make a necklace difficult. Chunky boots would look good, or the knee high slouchy boots which seem be the thing to pair with midi dresses this winter. If it's a smarter do then yes, heeled sandals. Depends on the event and what you like/are comfortable in. It's a lovely colour.

Definitely don't funk it up with fishnets.

Everything else should be simple. Biker jacket good suggestion.

I'm not sure you can funk that up TBH, the dress is a statement by itself so trying to make it funky would sit uneasily. Fishnets I definitely wouldn't do mainly because it will clash badly with the mesh top half.

If by funking up you actually mean dress down then I'd probably I'd do knee high leather boots (not stretch!!!) with a block heel and a leather jacket, plus a studded or unusually embellished clutch (not tiny size) bag. Or thinner heel ankle boots (not block heel ankle boots, too clumpy) but something with a bit of detail on such as snake print toes or similar.

No fishnets. That would be too much.
