For many of us the mini dress will be one of those fashion items that is firmly within the ‘summer’ category of our wardrobes, and is loyally packed away with the bikinis and linen separates every September. However, recently I’ve noticed some of Instagram’s most stylish embracing thigh-skimming lengths in the darkest depths of winter. Fashion fantasy? Possibly. But it got me thinking about how I can introduce some hemline variety into my trouser-heavy cold weather capsule.
My one caveat to these Instagram outfits is that they’re mostly staged, and not necessarily built for a long day out in 5 degree weather, so best to take with a pinch of salt. However, whenever I’ve spotted a stylish mini dress look, I’ve mentally added 50 denier tights and a long coat, therefore adapting it to the realities of the British wintertime.
With this in mind, I’ve rounded-up the four mini dress outfits that have caught my eye this season. Of course, the knitted dress is an obvious option, which lends itself perfectly to this season’s chunky boot (your winter mini dresses BFF), but other options include vintage florals that look fab with knee-high boots and pie crust collar dresses that can be toughened-up with combats. Scroll down to see and shop my full edit and get ready to feel some serious mini dress envy.
