You got the invite, but what to wear?

Christmas is just around the corner, meaning the hunt for the perfect party dress is on. But what is the best colour dress for Christmas? At this special time of year, gem hues of emerald green or deep red will make a statement, and who can resist the sparkle of glitter or a luxurious touch of velvet? Our standout selection of party dresses features dreamy frocks for all of your Christmas events, from big nights out to big nights in hosting the people that we love – and don’t forget you can rent a fabulous dress, too.

Something slinky

You can always count on silk or satin to elevate things a notch, and the luxe fabric does most of the hard work for you in bringing a look to life.

A shimmering statement

If you can’t bedazzle at New Year, when can you? Look for styles dripping with embellishment and let your confidence shine through.

Rebooted LBD

The timeless appeal of the little black dress is elevated by romantic ruffles and beautiful lace. Classic and effortless, it’ll see you from post-work drinks through to New Year.

Velvet touch

Velvet adds immediate va-va-voom because it’s tactile and opulent – plus the sumptuous styles come with the bonus of keeping you warm.
