Winter dresses to make you smile

15 June 2021
By Fashion Quarterly

Here's a bright idea to beat the winter blues, embrace bold patterns, and hues and be your own sun.

A bold, bright, or patterned dress shouldn’t be reserved for the warmer months. This season, take the colour wheel for a spin and embrace a playful approach to dressing. Don lustrous satin, striking prints, volume, texture, and colour to make you—and everyone around you—smile!
