Wine Maxi Dresses

Q: What colours go with a wine maxi dress?

Wine loves warm, deep company. Gold is its best friend and makes the whole thing look expensive, while tan, camel, chocolate and cream keep it tonal and elegant. Want a bit of contrast? Blush pink, dusty rose or soft grey are lovely, and black sharpens it right up. A nude or gold heel is the easiest way to finish it without stealing the colour's thunder

Q: Is wine red OK for a formal or wedding?

For a formal or black-tie do, a satin wine maxi looks rich and expensive under the lights, every bit as good as black or navy. And as a wedding guest? Genuinely one of the safest, prettiest picks, especially for an autumn or winter wedding, because it feels celebratory without you upstaging anyone. Keep your accessories gold and simple and you're good either way.

Q: Does wine work for autumn and winter?

This is basically wine's season. All that depth and warmth just feels right as the light fades and it gets cold, which is why it turns up every autumn and winter. A long sleeve wine maxi is your friend on chilly days, and the colour layers so well under a camel or black coat, with boots and opaque tights when it's freezing. You can wear it year-round, but this is when it really shows off.
