The Jumper Dress

When it comes to practicality and warmth for the winter, it doesn’t get much better than the jumper dress. It can be worn with thick opaque tights or leggings and boots for a really cosy and stylish outfit. Nordic prints, snow flakes, reindeers and cable knits are amongst the most popular designs for knit wear this winter and any of them would look great on a jumper dress. We love this black and grey knitted dress with sequin detail.

The Fifties Style Dress

Fifties style dresses are a huge trend this winter with the hit TV show Mad Men being a major influence. Look out for dresses that flare from the waist for a feminine and lady like look. This style of dress looks best with heels and  a hand bag over the arm. We love this khaki wrap over dress with satin waist trim. The wrap over style is particularly flattering and a great way of defining the waist.

The Shift Dress

The classic shift dress is one of the most versatile styles of dress. It never goes out of fashion and works for so many different occasions. This beautiful shift dress is perfect for wearing to a drinks party or any evening do, just add a great pair of heels and a beautiful clutch.

The T Shirt Dress

A t shirt dress is a really comfortable choice for the winter as it is made from jersey. It can also look elegant and works really well with the seasons minimalist trend. We love this sqaure necked t shirt dress with a flattering embroidered floral pattern on the front. Try wearing it with heels for a smart outfit or flats for a more casual look. It is also great for layering with a chunky knit cardigan for a really comfortable outfit.

The Evening Dress

Everyone needs an evening dress for Christmas parties and black is the usual choice of colour. This winter maxi dresses and long evening dresses are really fashionable and if you fancy a change from black why not try red, black and white or grey?

Which ever dress you choose to wear make sure that you have a great jacket or cardigan to go with it so that you are both warm and stylish.
