Knitted, Draped & Sequinned: How to Style Winter Dresses

Winter clothing is often thought of as a compromise, but the best cold weather clothing proves otherwise. This season, warmth and elegance are no longer opposing forces but collaborators. Think chunky knits that brush instead of cling, bias-cut and draped cuts that move easily under coats, and long sleeves that can do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.

Winter dresses aren’t just about being warm and stylish; it’s about embracing texture, proportion and elegance depending on the occasion, certainly. Whether layered or worn alone, it’s the season’s understated hero. This carefully chosen piece will transition seamlessly from daytime errands to candlelit nights without missing a beat.

Of course, no winter outfit outfit is complete without a sweater dress or two. We love the chunky cable-knit style, which can be paired with tall flat boots or suede accessories. Since the party doesn’t end after January 1 (it’s just renamed), you can’t go wrong adding a few statement holiday dresses to your rotation, like Zara’s sequined lace-trimmed midi dress. Style it with a beaded bag, a furry cropped jacket and textured heels for a festive look. Embrace classic style with a sleek black turtleneck dress from Toteme, The Row or Allude – the overall effect is both comfortable and harmonious. Whether it’s Miu Miu’s Aventure bag or Chloé’s Paddington bag, they complement our favorite handbags and bring a nostalgic feel.

No matter which way you go, there’s a chic winter coat waiting for you ahead.

When in doubt, take the comfort route! The sub-zero weather forecast calls for comfort, and we can’t think of anything more cozy than an oversized cable-knit dress. Tie a matching sweater around your neck to add interest and texture, then have fun with accessories. We love pairing it with a merlot shoulder bag and knee-high chocolate brown boots for a subtle pop of color.
