Emilia Fox is convincing us to swap our dull winter staples for energetic, vibrant tones—watch as we shop her exact corduroy shirt dress.
If you're currently looking for ways to brighten up your go-to staples from your winter capsule wardrobe, then perhaps a bright cobalt blue dress is the answer you've been looking for. In the colder months, dark winter neutrals take precedence, however, we're here to make a case for integrating bright pops of colour into your cold-weather looks.
Emilia's recent look shows just how easy it is to pull off vibrant tones, especially in the form of a flattering shirt dress. Her exact outfit is from one of the best British brands, ME+EM, and is the Cord Velour Ponte Midi Shirt Dress, and we think this might be one of our favourite fashion finds this New Year.

This shirt dress strikes the perfect balance between elegant and effortless, meaning that it will make for the chicest office attire whilst being perfect for weekend outings too. She paired the piece with nude heels, a dainty chain necklace, and some thin hoop earrings. For colder January days, I imagine it teamed with the best knee high boots, your favourite cosy cardigan, and a warm winter coat—an easy, stylish look that's ready for any occasion.
And it's not just her latest looks we're celebrating, as we're very excited for her anticipated return in the new series of Silent Witness, which has already begun. The first episode aired on Monday, 6th January 2025, and it will continue providing 10 new episodes.
