I'm looking at a dress with a fitted bodice and a fullish skirt that will come to just below the knee.

Could I wear it with a swing jacket that falls just beyond my waist or are swing jackets better suited to shift dresses?

I don't want to look like a cube!

You can pick one up on the market for next to nothing, most have an attached hood too although it might flatten your hairdo. Maybe one of those plastic concertina rain hoods would be better ;o)

You can get clear plastic rain bonnets with coloured edging, I'm sure you'd find one to match your kagool.

Oh great I can now see myself at this function in my Kagoul, crocs and frock with my hold ups wrinkling around my ankles munching on a spam sandwich courtesy of Keith.

God, I hope there are no photographs taken :-(
