I wore this twice for ceremonies. The Burberry check pattern is fashionable and lovely, and I preferred this design to the basic beige. I think it's a convenient item that can be worn year-round except in summer, by pairing it with a turtleneck or tights. It's a very lovely dress, so I would be happy if you would wear it. Since it's not a tight fit, I think you can also use it as a tunic with leggings.
