I bought a heavily reduced dress from Outnet from their winter sale, earlier this year. It is really thick merino wool. It's quite figure hugging and it is handwash / dry clean only.

I can't think of where on earth I could wear it! It's a bit too fancy for outdoors and too hot for indoors, even in winter. It isn't outerwear as it's quite figure hugging.

Should I just sell the fucker? It's going to taunt me from my wardrobe all winter isn't it?

It's made of wool, but I don't know what sort of dress it is tbh. Skater sounds right. Definitely 100% wool as I checked label.

I think keeping it till mid December is a good shout.

I agree with others that have said thick tights and winter boots. I love autumn/winter outfits. I would put it in washing machine with woolite and the wool cycle.

Oh that is a great tip re wool cycle! I'm sure that would be ok.

Thanks everyone for comments! Very helpful Flowers

I love it and live in Scotland and would wear it!

What size is it?

It's a 14! But I do think I'll keep it. Maybe till Christmas or New Year and will sell on (or give to drybird), if I haven't worn it by then.
