Toast? Yes, but with elegance. Here are the best outfits for holiday celebrations.
December is a month full of festive events to exchange toasts and well wishes, and outfits for holiday celebrations are always expected to be pretty much glamorous. Border lace, bold transparency, fine finishing, flashes of metallic – every single detail contributes to the creation of unique evening dresses, emphasizing high-quality fabrics and sensual cutouts.
Velvet, chic and royal fabric ideal for not only dresses but also jackets, coats, and accessories, is starring on the most important catwalks: Giorgio Armani offers it in total black and often combined with transparent inserts, lace or fringes.
Valentino haute couture is inspired by Shakespeare’s epoch: high-end luxirious fabrics, austere lines and royal details, such as ermine hooded capes and skirts with peacock feathers. Blumarine’s transparency is wisely mitigated either with brightly colored flowers or with fabric inserts and mink fur embellishments.
Dolce & Gabbana offers refined elegance and sinuous lines: a black lace and red satin mermaid gown or a silk taffeta bustier with precious silver embroidery are timeless pieces that combine both the Mediterranean and the traditional handicraft aesthetic.
For a younger but no less elegant look, Versace proposes a mini-dress either in pastel shades or in neon colors with sequined inserts and a twin-set of a white lace flounced trousers and a corset to match trousers.
Whether it be a mini-dress or a long dress, “to sparkle” is the imperative for the next evening: spangles and sequins make today’s parties and, certainly, outfits for this season are not short of glare. Beginning with a Dolce & Gabbana gown for those who are bold enough to wear gold and tulle, going on with a Blumarine multicolor sequined top, and ending with the Burberry triumph of flowers and rhinestones.
