I am planning to wear this dress to a wedding next month it’s from Coast.. what do you think would be best to use as a cover up a shawl or a jacket? If a jacket what colour and should I go for blazer style or cropped? I haven’t got shoes yet but I’m thinking maybe gold for shoes. I’m 5”1 so I am wary of drowning in a big jacket!

I'd go for 100 Stars peacock and poppy long kimono or one of their passion flower duster coats - as they're such a statement in themselves they won't detract do much from the dress. Then get shoes and a bag that pick out one of the contrast colours from the top layer.

I had a dress that was the same colour and leopard print heels looked amazing with it! And a cropped jacket would work well too.

The dusters are great but what about the OP’s height? She’s petite.

Ooh leopard print shoes would look great and you'd probably get more wear out of them too, good shout.
