No matter the season, it goes without saying that some of the simplest and most convenient pieces in my wardrobe are my dresses. In summer, I throw one on and run out the door with barely a thought because they’re the most practical item one can wear while summer temps blaze. In winter, the added thought is only to slip into a pair of tights and maybe layer a turtleneck underneath. No matter the season, however, dresses are always complicated by one thing: coats. In the summer, temperatures can swing from 90 degrees midday to 65 degrees at night in the blink of an eye, which means it’s essential to have a coat to combat the evening chill.

Styling coats with dresses can be particularly tricky as the final layer can make the entire dress seem shapeless, or even cover it in its entirety. A necessary evil, there are, in fact, ways that a coat can upgrade, even highlight (!) the dress underneath.
