How to style a lace maxi dress?

Who loves a good maxi dress? Why not step it up a notch and go for a lace maxi dress UK style. There is something so elegant and classy about lace dresses. For a modest look, there are so many long sleeved options. You can find a long sleeve lace maxi dress almost anywhere as these are one of the most stylish and trendy items. This has been on trend for years and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.

Whether you prefer a lace maxi dress with sleeves or without, no matter how it is styled, it will always look feminine and sophisticated. From a white lace maxi dress to a black lace maxi dress, no matter what the colour, lace will always add a beautiful touch to a simple outfit. Our favourite for the winter season is definitely a navy lace maxi dress as there is something so elegant and mature about navy and is perfect for the festive season.

These dresses are great for any occasion, whether it’s a get together with friends, a birthday party or a wedding, create any look with these dresses.

The lace dress suggests a mixture of sophistication and purity and a shift version is versatile enough to be dressed up or down, feminised or brutalised, chic or casual.

Don’t crowd the intricacies of lace with fussy accessories – keep them to a minimum. Choose heels for elegance and symmetry, or be more shouty with block-heeled ankle boots beneath a flimsy midi or maxi. You will need nothing else!

If you shy away from an all-over effect, stick to filigree trims and details instead – edge floral prints with black lace.  Or simply carry a lace-covered handbag – make it a focal point by plumping for a bold colour.

Introduce openwork sleeves or a crocheted kimono.  Before you know it you’ll be hooked, and lacework will creep into your wardrobe unannounced.

Simple doesn’t have to mean basic though.  Add a touch (or two) of class by throwing a blazer over your frock.  Try off-white over deep blue, and finish with a string of pearls and satin heels for simplicity with flair.

Go for a full-skirted dress with a narrow belt or a body-hugger with a pencil skirt, and pair with a denim jacket for some street style.

Alternatively, you can opt for a lace top maxi dress, so that the lace isn’t the whole way through. This definitely is a toned down version of the full lace dress.

A lacy bodice will see your little black number ready for when the cocktails come your way.  Earlier, be day-time demure in white with taupe gladiator sandals, or make a statement by adding black footwear and a fedora instead.

Even though we’re saying don’t overdo it, some thought will lift your outfit beyond the ordinary.  Offset pastels with similar pale shades, such as pallid pink lace maxi dress, baby blue and beige or cream and red lace maxi dress to suggest a well thought-out total look.  And red lace or hot pink would be stunning!
