Showstopping party tops for women
We say the go-to party outfit formula is fancy on top and comfy on the bottom. An attention-grabbing sequin top is a festive-season classic, whether you’re party is screen to screen or face to face. And with all eyes drawn to it, you could keep things simple yet stylish on your bottom half – with denims or a pleated skirt. If you’re heading to your work Christmas party straight from the office, jazz up the top with a sequin blazer or a pair of velvet trousers and sparkling gold jewellery.
Christmas party dresses for office
Christmas & New Years are as good a reason as any to go for all-out glamour and add some sparkle to your social feeds, whether it’s with a glittery top (like above) or a shimmering sequinned dress (featured). No matter how you’re celebrating this year – with people in person or via Zoom again – stunning Christmas party dresses are a zero-fuss way to go from sofa to social and away from a regular cocktail dress. Plus, they don’t have to compromise on comfort (look for relaxed shapes and stretch fabrics) and can be dressed down for outdoor gatherings. Just add tights, chunky boots and throw a jumper or blazer on top. Show us how you Re-think bling by tagging us @marksandspencerindia.
Not-going-out Christmas party outfits
For the party wear dress, pick items that blend luxe detailing with timeless designs. Simple shirt dresses in luxurious fabrics look effortlessly chic and these paired with this animal print sequin blazer is a look fancy enough for kitchen discos while also being relaxed enough for day-to-day wear. A single-breasted velvet blazer pairs perfectly with a glass of prosecco, but also looks just as good with a white T-shirt, vintage-wash jeans and trainers. Meanwhile, a cashmere knit dresses up leather trousers and will keep you cosy until spring.
