The Draped Zara Dress That Makes the Burgundy Trend Easiest to Wear

A simple way to wear burgundy
Merlot, oxblood and maroon are among the shades appearing across the high street this season. A dress can bring burgundy into an outfit with little effort, whether paired with matching accessories or worn more simply.
Zara’s $60 option is a draped midi dress designed to work for more than one occasion. Its silhouette and color make it a versatile choice for the season.

Details and styling options
The dress has short sleeves with dropped shoulders, a front waist pleat and a side zip concealed in the seam. These features give the design a more polished appearance.

Care and versatility
The dress can be worn in different ways and is machine washable, provided it is washed on a low heat. That makes it a practical option as well as a dress-up choice.
