In just 10 days we’ll be welcoming the start of a New Year and new
decade, don’t get caught wearing something less than spectacular to ring
in the New Year.
New Year’s Eve is notoriously one of the
hardest occasions to dress for. Finding the right balance between
festive, flattering, feminine and practical is not always an easy task.
Keeping a few of the tried and true fashion guidelines in mind with your
finger on the pulse of which styles are hot right now, is sure to start
you on the right track to finding your perfect NYE dress.
Color
When
stuck in a style rut, the first thing we reach for is the ever faithful
little black dress. With a little more time to plan ahead for your NYE
attire, why not dive into color?
Hues such as emerald green and
cobalt blue are regal and bold. They play well off of many skin tones
and have the ability to make even a simple dress stand out when
accessorized just right. If you’re attending a black tie NYE event,
these colors will exude sophistication. Punchy brights such a fuchsia
and corals are youthful and festive, perfect for a casual, fun NYE
party.

Sequins
There is no escaping the sequined
holiday dress. If you want all eyes on you when you step into the room, a
sparkling sequined number that will catch all the light is your dress.
In
seasons past, the fitted sequin mini was hot. This year, more loosely
fitting silhouettes are popular. There are loads of sequined dress
options to choose from. This popular trend comes in different colors,
patterns and styles to suit a wide range of body types and tastes.

Body Con Dress
It’s
all in the name, bodycon is short for body conscious and typically
refers to bandage style dresses. If you are proud of your figure and 100
percent confident with your physique then this is the dress for you!
This style is not just for waif thin women, a well made bodycon dress
sculpts the curves of the female figure which means it’s ideal for curvy
women as well.
Unless you’re in the mood for treating yourself,
chances are you won’t be rocking the creme de la creme of bodycon
dresses from designer label Hérve Léger, but there are other great
options from quality contemporary brands such as Fumblin Foe.
Look
for versions that have structure. The best body con dresses will
feature curved seams around your thighs - visually creating a flattering
hourglass silhouette.

Feminine Details
Statement
bows and floral appliques are a huge trend this holiday season. Adorn
yourself like a perfectly wrapped present in an ultra-feminine NYE dress
with a standout bow or floral detail. When wearing a dress with a
statement detail, remember to keep your jewelry to a minimum and your
make-up toned down. Too many competing factors in your look will make
you appear overdone, so let that statement detail shine and all the
other elements work as the supporting cast.
Separates
You
don’t have to don a dress to look stellar on New Year’s Eve. Pairing
two complimentary separates can do the trick just a phenomenally as a
great dress. Separates also allow you to combine your favorite elements
from great dress styles into one statement look. Think a loose racerback
sequin top with a sleek bodycon skirt or a delicate nude lace blouse
with a statement bow, paired with a boldly colored bottom.
If
balancing your proportions is your goal, separates are definitely the
way to go. If you have a full bust but narrow hips or the reverse with
wide hips and a smaller bust, pairing separates of different sizes will
help you to get the perfect fit without seeking out a tailor.
Let your personality shine in a knockout NYE dress and start the New Year off looking your absolute best!
