How to Wear a Lace Turtleneck for Romantic Dates & Festive Occasions

When you want to look special for romantic dates or festive events, knowing how to wear a lace turtleneck can project a Victorian style. It’s a covered-up kind of sexy that can be flirty or just a more conservative way to be ultra-feminine. Age doesn’t matter.

If you’re like me and like to get variety out of your clothes, you will be happy to find that this updated post has over 45 ways to wear a lace turtleneck. I hope you’ll look through the outfit combinations below and find them helpful for fall/winter dates and during the holidays. If you like, feel free to print out this guide for your use.

How to Wear a Lace Turtleneck

~All references to leather or fur in this post are intended to be faux in order to be kind to animals.~

You can keep your look classy with a camisole or tank under your turtleneck.

Or if you want to be sexy, go ahead and wear only a bra underneath in black (under any color,) white (under white lace) or a beautiful color (under anything.) It could even be a longline bra if that works for you.

To be suggestive, simply layer a nude camisole under.

The sexy, suggestive options are even more doable when you add a coverup such as a blazer, jacket, cardigan, kimono, duster, vest or shirt as jacket.

Below are outfit ideas for how to wear a lace turtleneck with velvet, denim and leather. There’s a special section on ways to pair it with a skirt. Then there are a few ways to accessorize. To wrap it up, there are lots more outfit combinations that don’t fit into only one category.

My hope is that you will be able to use this wide variety of options for your own inspiration to get the most use from your lace turtleneck!

Velvet & Lace

Velvet and lace together double the luxury.

1. Layer a velvet slip dress over a lace turtleneck.
2. A lace turtleneck + a velvet jacket + blue jeans.  You might like to add a couple of matching pendants, boots and/or a belt. Or, you might like to add hoop earrings, boots and/or put your hair up or back.
3. A lace turtleneck + a velvet blazer.  Add bottoms of your choice.
4. Pair a lace turtleneck with a velvet skirt.
5. A lace turtleneck + velvet pants. Add ankle boots + earrings.

Denim makes lace wearable for every day. Lace can dress up denim for easy evenings.

1. Great for holiday get-togethers:  A lace turtleneck + blue jeans. Layer delicate silver & gold necklaces. Add gold hoop earrings.

A lace turtleneck + blue jeans.  Add 1) dramatic earrings + rings; or, 2) you might want to add a long cross pendant; or, 3) push back sleeves and add a beaded cuff or charm bracelet; or, 4) add a stack of narrow bangles over your sleeve cuff, or 5) add a string of beads.  Curl your hair and put it into a messy up-do.
