Wearing a Jacket with Red Carpet Evening Gowns

Video Transcript

"HARMONIE KRIEGER: So, when you're walking down the red carpet or you're going to an event, you definitely need to be comfortable and weather is something that you can't predict. So, I always say bring a nice jacket that covers the length of the dress or a shawl will work as well if it's hotter out and you don't want to wear an overcoat. So, this is a basic idea of a shearling and this is when it's really cold out. So, you don't know what the weather is, you think you might--you're going bare shoulders, your halter dress, so you want to make sure you're covered. So, this is pretty because it has fur at the top. So, yes, even though it's warm, it's still an overcoat. But when I take it off, I actually have a shawl on underneath and even though it's not the right color, I'm going to show you what you can do with it. So, we're going to put that down. Now, this can work two ways. This can be a scarf for a jacket that you may have that will work and obviously again, it's white and we would probably go with black for this dress. But the cool thing about the pashmina which I love is if it's just a little bit chilly out, you can take it and wrap it around yourself like this. So, now it becomes an elegant shawl and you can put your hands through and you can walk like this. So, it's a pretty little thing that just hides the shoulders and gives you a little more warmth."
