Question 1

Why are winter dresses almost always knits?

Accepted Answer

Knit dresses are warm, comfortable, and easy to layer. Unlike woven fabric, knit stretches with you, so a dress can fit close to the body without feeling restrictive or bulky over layers. The knit construction also helps trap warm air, making it especially well suited to cold weather.

Question 2

What fibers are featured in this dress collection?

Accepted Answer

This collection includes Mongolian cashmere, cotton-cashmere, Australian merino wool, yak, and woven wool. Cashmere offers the most warmth for its weight, merino is especially good at holding its shape, and yak is the densest and most substantial knit in the collection.

Question 3

Do I need tights with these?

Accepted Answer

For the coldest days, yes. Opaque tights add warmth and make shorter hemlines much more practical in winter. They also give you more flexibility in how you wear each dress, especially minis.

Question 4

Which dresses work without anything over them?

Accepted Answer

The long-sleeve and turtleneck styles are designed to be worn on their own. The sleeveless and short-sleeve knits are more versatile for layering, whether you wear them over a fine long-sleeve top or under a cardigan.

Question 5

What's a yak knit?

Accepted Answer

A yak knit is made from yak fiber rather than sheep’s wool or cashmere. Yak fiber creates a dense, substantial knit that feels especially suited to colder weather.

Question 6

What's a side-slit midi?

Accepted Answer

A side-slit midi is a knit midi dress with a vertical opening at the side seam. The slit gives the hem more movement, making it easier to walk in a longer dress without feeling restricted.

Question 7

How is this different from Quince's sweater dresses collection?

Accepted Answer

The sweater dresses collection focuses more on fibers and styles for year-round wear. This collection features knit dresses that are designed for the coldest weather.

Question 8

Accepted Answer
