Brown maxi dresses

Q: How do you style a brown maxi dress?

Brown is easy because it acts like a neutral, just warmer. For day, throw on flat sandals or white trainers and a denim jacket, and keep accessories gold. To dress it up, add strappy heels, a clutch and some gold jewellery , or layer a leather jacket or blazer over the top for evening. Chocolate brown especially loves cream, tan, gold and a touch of leopard.

Q: What shoes look best with a brown maxi dress?

Tan, nude and gold shoes are the natural match, keeping everything warm and elongating the leg under a maxi. For contrast, black or cream heels look sharp, and knee-high boots make a long sleeve brown maxi properly autumnal. For day, flat sandals or white trainers keep a casual brown maxi easy. Metallics and a little animal print both work if you want more.

Q: Is a brown maxi dress ok for a wedding?

Yes, brown has quietly become one of the chicest guest colours. It steps away from the usual brights, photographs rich and expensive, and stays well clear of bridal white. Go satin or silk in a deeper chocolate for a formal or evening wedding, or a lighter caramel for a daytime do, then keep accessories gold and minimal.
