For the office, layer the dress over an oversized shirt-dress and add a blazer. Another outfit could be a t-shirt with wide tailored pants. For both looks add loafers or kitten heels, and minimal jewellery. The contrast between more masculine pieces and the feminine texture of the dress works to your advantage and gives your outfit edge and structure, perfect for lovers of conceptual and aesthetic clothing.
For the weekend, throw the lace dress over a cotton t-shirt or a light knit, and combine it with straight jeans or utility pants underneath. Ground the outfit with boots, sneakers, or even mules depending on your plans. Based on the weather, layer a cropped bomber, shearling jacket, or oversized denim on top.
