Cocktail Dresses from my-wardrobe.com
my-wardrobe.com have a range of cocktail and party dresses for the new season that will make you look absolutely gorgeous this festive season. Glam and glitter is in the air, inspired by the current desire for everything 1970s. There are sequins and lurex prints in abundance.
Also big this season are leather looks, as part of the new “fetish” trend. Check out the leather dresses by Theory and the strappy bondage inspired boots by Bionda Castana. Lace is also big news, so if leather is not your thing, check out the feminine lacy ensembles, mostly in dramatic black, that are big with designers such as D&G and Love Moschino.
My Favourites
If you’re after glitz and glamour though, I’ve picked out three of my own personal favourites for the new season.
Vince Ring Sequin Tunic Dress
The Vince Ring Sequin Tunic, pictured above right, is a tunic which has been embellished all over with large, ring shaped sequins in antique silver and gold. It’s so easy to wear – it just pulls on over the head to fit, and it is fully lined. You can cinch the waist for a different look if you choose. You can also wear the dress on its own, or over leggings so there are lots of options. Don’t expect it to stay on the shelves for long.
Marc by Marc Jacobs Panther Lurex Shift Dress
I’m a fan of Marc by Marc Jacobs anyway, but I have to say, that this lurex panther dress ticks all my boxes. This navy jacquard dress has a funky all over panther design in bronze, making this a shift dress with a difference.
Team it with towering metallic heels and a clutch for an enviable cocktail outfit.
Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Sequin Dress
This Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Dress is perfect for the party season. The all over shiny sequin embellishment gives the dress a great texture and a look of pure luxury, and a simple pair of black heels completes the look perfectly.
I like the multicoloured sequins – they are different shades of purple and black and there is an exposed silver coloured zip fastening centre back. The dress is also a little stretchy for a perfect fit.
