Celebrating the Season - Perfect your party look

Added: (Fri Nov 06 2009)

Pressbox (Press Release) - Forget what they say, there is nothing wrong with taking over an hour (and by that I mean two!) getting ready before an evening out on the town. However, after painting your nails, and styling your hair, there is still a lot to contemplate – do you choose the thigh-skimming mini dress, a goddess maxi, or the sexy in-between; a figure hugging midi length that is both sexy and classy?


At this time of year, the words party and dress are on every stylista’s lips. The events are approaching that require a little sparkle, glitz and glamour, or perhaps a sumptuous detail for the festive period. Whether it’s the traditional office party, a black tie soiree, or simply Christmas cocktails with friends, it’s always difficult making the final decision... what should you actually wear?!

This is the time when you really want to feel fabulous from head-to-toe, so first things first, choose a piece that you feel comfortable in. If you have any ifs or buts, then the dress just isn’t for you - and that’s that.

If you are a little bit rock ‘n’ roll and prefer a more relaxed approach to party dressing, then German-born designer Markus Lupfer creates slouchy, T-style pieces that are guaranteed to please. Finished with bold, graphic prints and shimmering sequins, these are made to be worn with edgy leather-look leggings and studded accessories; a stylish ensemble that’s perfect for more relaxed evenings.


A floor-sweeping dress is the easy way to dramatic glamour, and those with bigger budgets can opt for a label that’s renowned for exactly that. Marchesa have already established their red carpet worth at virtually every awards ceremony, and their ethereal maxi dresses are a must if you really want to make an entrance. Break the rules and choose a light, pastel shade this season, and let the style-envy commence.
