What to Wear with a Black Sweater Dress - outfit idea

Pair a black sweater dress with tall boots, opaque tights, a belt and a long coat, and add a scarf or statement jewellery to lift the look.

What to Wear with a Black Sweater Dress - outfit idea

A black sweater dress is warm, comfortable and easy to dress up or down, so a few accessories can change it completely.

Outfit Ideas

  • Knee-high or ankle boots. Black or brown boots with opaque tights make a classic winter combination.
  • Add a belt. A belt creates shape and stops a loose knit looking boxy.
  • Layer a long coat. Camel, grey or cream coats stand out beautifully against black.
  • Accessorise. A chunky scarf, gold jewellery or a structured bag adds interest.

What to Avoid

Avoid all-black accessories with no contrast, which can look flat.

Frequently Asked Question

Can I wear a sweater dress to work?
