I have a long puffer coat that I like, but it has no hood.&nbsp; This fits in nicely under the coat and may be a great solution.&nbsp; Only caution is that it's roomy and I hope that doesn't mean cold air get in.&nbsp; Fits under jackets also.&nbsp; Ordered both black and navy and still deciding the best color.&nbsp; &nbsp;My coat is black but navy is more flattering&nbsp; next to my face.&nbsp; Thinking this could also be a good holiday gift ........... unique.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285464 Tue, 11 Oct 2022 07:02:03 +0000 Cee 2285464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As Thumbelina once said, " I've never seen one THAT big before !

I get a very cold back in winter so would love something like this but with a heated pad for the back. I really like the last outfit. It goes well with the printed sweater and joggers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285422 Tue, 11 Oct 2022 00:43:12 +0000 Zaeobi 2285422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh this looks very stylish on you! Red/ pink accents sounds good - just like teal is a pseudo neutral for me </p> <p>Good point on the difference between a dicky (dickie?) &amp; a hooded neck warmer - I actually have two &amp; have been struggling on how to style them (the black one is slimmer so it works 'traditionally' but the brown one is too big &amp; puffy) so thanks for the inspiration on wearing it *over* stuff. Works much better for subtropical, humid showers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285317 Mon, 10 Oct 2022 08:09:24 +0000 Jessikams 2285317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it love it !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285285 Mon, 10 Oct 2022 02:54:59 +0000 CarolS 2285285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! I would totally support the idea of red and pink as neutrals that help bring your wardrobe together. Yes yes!</p> <p>Lol the pragmatist on the Canadian prairies only sees the practical application for a hood/neck warmer!!! Your vision is far more interesting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285211 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 19:02:58 +0000 approprio 2285211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Bijou</b>, you say the loveliest things! I am a huge Grace Jones fan. Of course I am.</p> <p><b>Janet, LBD, CarolS</b>: it makes more sense like that, right? A kind of scarf/hat hybrid?&nbsp;</p> <p>Who cares?&nbsp;Functionality is secondary. This is one of those pieces that &nbsp;ties a whole section of my wardrobe together, the way some Dude’s rug really ties the room together. Speaking of which, look at what I found in the gift shop!</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://dutchmuseumgiftshop.nl/nl/product/quote-t-shirt-dude-well-you-know-thats-like-your-opnion-man/">https://dutchmuseumgiftshop.nl.....pnion-man/</a></p> <p>Serious question: I have a tentative plan to develop a capsule of red and pink accents. Should I think about colors in this range as a sort of subsidiary neutral?</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285177 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 15:47:46 +0000 CarolS 2285177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting piece! Love the colour. I think I like it best paired with something that is not already a puffer -- so 3 and 4 are my favourites. </p> <p>I see it as the practical addition to a wool coat with open neckline (worn over, not under), or, as you suggest, maybe over something lighter for transitional&nbsp; warmth (although if I'm cold enough to want my neck warmed, I'm cold enough to want a full jacket!)</p> <p>Keep us posted as to what you decide! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285159 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 14:46:52 +0000 Janet 2285159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like MB, I thought neck warmer rather than dickie — I can absolutely see how a too puffy back piece would not make it feasible to tuck in. Great match with that sleeve detailing on the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285150 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 13:30:42 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2285150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! </p> <p>I don’t see it as a dickie. My immediate thought was “hooded scarf” or “hooded neckwarmer” </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285130 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 10:00:09 +0000 Bijou 2285130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a wonderful piece, so very Grace Jones, I love it on you!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285129 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 09:46:12 +0000 approprio 2285129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b>, right! I like the left field cabin crew vibe I get from the color coordination. Is it too literal though? It reminds me of the inflatable vests at Balenciaga, which I mocked but wanted all the same.</p> <p>As for the fit, I have yet to do an exhaustive survey. I think it is designed for the loose, off the shoulder neckline that is trending right now. Fabric weight may also be a factor. I will keep trying.</p> <p>To answer your question, <b>LJP</b>, I tucked it into the revers and tamed it with a bag strap. It behaved as far as I could tell.</p> <p><b>Jaime</b>: not just for winter! On its own, perfect for transitional weather, when it’s not quite cold enough for an extra layer. Not that I’m enabling or anything. I like how it feels high concept and mildly ridiculous at the same time. Is this what Ms Tibi would call “a little bit off”? </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285103 Sun, 09 Oct 2022 01:29:30 +0000 Jaime 2285103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you kidding me? This is fabulous. But I hear you about the back padding under coats and am glad you told me -&nbsp; otherwise I would be tempted for my imaginary winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285082 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 22:51:54 +0000 Angie 2285082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FUN! Life Jacket Chic :)</p> <p>Extra fun with your Star Trek jacket in #3 because of how it matches the stripes on the sleeves.</p> <p><b>Liz</b>, are you sure you can't layer it under a cape, wrap, or the like?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285065 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 19:35:33 +0000 approprio 2285065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Nikki, slim cat</b>, thanks! It’s just the right amount of cosy for the time of year. I doubt I will wear it with the hood up on my bike though.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LJP</b>: haha, yeh, it is a bit Children of Fashion Week. That horror film is playing out on Instagram and TikTok as I write. Is it getting worse or better? I can never tell… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285063 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 19:19:29 +0000 LJP 2285063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm . Interesting . I do like it best with the print top thing . It’s a neat idea but does it move around when you walk , sit , drive etc? I saw one last week from some Children of Fashion Week photos in a teddy fleece and kind of liked it . I don’t know …. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285052 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 17:59:33 +0000 Anonymous 2285052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool and interesting piece! I have trouble with hoods because they give me a blind spot when crossing the street. Awesome frog purse </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285048 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 17:39:33 +0000 slim cat 2285048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun with your frog bag - love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285046 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 17:33:10 +0000 approprio 2285046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Star, the thought had crossed my mind. The slippers do look very comfortable… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285043 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 17:22:41 +0000 Star (Lise) 2285043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe you and Mr Edge can come to an agreement or compromise where you wear his pink slippers with your pink dickie and he can use your dickie when he wears his slippers.&nbsp; I understand they are different shades of pink but perhaps tonal enough.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/that-cos-dickie%e2%80%a6#post-2285040 Sat, 08 Oct 2022 16:54:47 +0000 approprio 2285040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>…followed me home yesterday. It’s a keeper for sure.&nbsp;Thanks Angie for getting me to look in Cos for hot pink!</p> <p>The material is lush and the colour intense. More redness to it than the classic Schiaparelli pink I usually wear. The hood design is very neat.&nbsp;It does more or less what I want it to with some pieces, was a pleasant surprise with others, and, it has to be said, is totally unsuccessful in what it’s supposed to do.&nbsp;</p> <p>You see, this piece does not sit well inside a coat. There is too much filling in the back panel for it to lie flat, so unless the look you are going for is Quasimodo, you will want to wear on top of your topper, where it looks like a very fetching life preserver.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love it. I wore it today with oversized joggers and a favorite vintage blazer. Also shown, a quick trial with a graphic print and a frog purse. I think I might prefer both of these with the green joggers.&nbsp;</p> <p>Mr Edge is doubtful. I said nothing about the slippers. Comments and styling ideas are welcome.&nbsp;</p> <p></p>
