I recently bought a knitted midi dress—a cream cardigan-type style with tortoiseshell buttons and a surprisingly flattering V-neck—and I’ve been excited to wear it. Its arrival was perfectly timed with the current cold snap, so as soon as it arrived, I stood in front of the mirror, tried it on and knew it was going to be my autumn hero piece. All that was left to do was decide which shoes to wear with it.
Throwing open my wardrobe drawers, I assumed finding the perfect pair of shoes to match my knitted dress would be an easy endeavour. However, as I started trying it on with my block-heel slingbacks and trusty ballet pumps, I encountered an unexpected stumbling block. They just didn’t seem to work.
The length of the dress and its weighty fabrication meant that many of my shoes, which are mostly on the delicate side, just didn’t look right. So I decided to turn to some of my favourite influencers to see what they think the best shoes to wear with knitted dresses are. Handily, there is plenty of inspiration to choose from.
Continue on to see what fashion people think are the correct shoes to wear with knitted dresses, and you’ll be ready for autumn before you know.
