If you love the shape of a short dress but prefer a little more coverage, tights and long boots are your best friends.

How can I style short dresses for different seasons?

Short dresses aren’t just for summer; with a few tweaks, they can work all year round. Add stockings or leggings and boots to stay snug.

How do I accessorise a short dress?

The beauty of short dresses lies in their simplicity, which leaves plenty of room for accessories to shine. Try a belt to define your waist, or go bold with statement earrings or a layered necklace. If your dress features prints or texture, keep accessories simple and let the fabric be the focal point. Bags, shoes and hair accessories also add personality without much effort, and they can easily change the vibe of your look from relaxed to refined.
