Christmas party season is upon us, and that can only mean one thing: it’s time to go shopping for a new dress. Whether you’re looking for something to wear to your office Christmas party, a night out with your favourite friends, or a rare date night with your husband, one thing’s for sure: you’re going to want to look fabulous!
Don’t worry, we’re here to help. Here are some of our favourite Christmas party dresses that you just won’t be able to resist:
Lovely in Leopard Print
Whilst leopard print will never go out of fashion during the winter months, bold animal prints are particularly in vogue this festive season. Designers such as Gucci, Saint Laurent and Paco Rabanne have all sent stunning leopard print dresses down the catwalk this season, inspiring designs all over the high street.
We love this vibrant and eye-catching green leopard print dress, which is a wonderful homage to Roberto Cavalli. Featuring a thigh high split and a plunging neckline, this is a figure flattering, curve friendly dress. The wrap tie can be adjusted to suit your shape.
Embrace the bold pattern of the dress by pairing it with dramatic accessories in contrasting colours: think oversized tassel earrings in fuchsia pink or blood red platform heels.
Stun in Sequins
Sequins never go out of fashion for party season: they’re bold, decadent, and sure to attract attention for all the right reasons. If you’ve got a formal party to go to then there’s no better fabric to choose than fun, full coverage sequins.
With its deep v neckline and ruching across the torso, this is a great dress to choose if you’re hoping to hide that post-baby mum tum. This is a dress that was designed to showcase your curves and will look great paired with dramatic oversized jewellery covered in sparkles: think jewel-embellished clutch bags, elaborate cocktail rings, and diamante chandelier earrings.
Ladylike in Lace
Finally, if you’re looking for a demure dress that feels grown up and feminine, then look to this bodycon midi dress with lace embellishment across the bodice and sleeves. The tie is perfect for cinching in the waistline and creating curves, but it is also detachable if you prefer to create a cleaner and more minimalist line.
Romantic lace is a great choice for both dates and a girl’s night out: designers such as Preen and Marc Jacobs both showcased beautiful lace gowns as part of their most recent catwalk collections, making it fashion-forward as well as timeless.
Because this dress is so versatile, you can choose to accessorise it in a myriad of different ways. Keep things simple with black heels and a coordinating sleek black leather clutch bag, or inject colour into your outfit with vibrant jewellery, multicoloured heels, and a jewel-encrusted clutch bag. The choice really is yours.
