The Chic Dress Trend I Can't Go Without During Winter

When it comes to getting dressed at this time of year, my main goal is to be cosy. As someone who consistently feels the chill, being warm is of the utmost importance to me and is probably why 99% of my winter wardrobe consists of pieces made from wool. From thick trousers to cosy knits, garments made from wool cannot be beaten in terms of keeping you cosy but, also, enabling you to look chic. And right now, I've set my sights on finding the perfect wool dress.

It was just last week when I realised that I don't own any wool dresses. Knitted, yes, but as for pure wool, be it merino, alpaca, or cashmere, I was shocked when I realised I'd never invested in the real thing. Taking to the market (read: H&M's search bar), I was pleased to see that there's no shortage of wool dresses out there. From boiled wool to ultra-soft weaves, you really can take your pick. Me? I'm into the tailored iterations I found at Massimo Dutti, and the chic drapery showcased at The Row. They might sit at opposite ends of the budget spectrum but below, I've rounded up a selection of the best wool dresses for every budget.
