It’s official – party season is finally here! It’s time to bring out the glitz and glam and go all out with your festive looks. Whether you’ve got an office party or a formal event with friends, you can always inject some festive fun into your outfit. So no matter the occasion, look no further than our complete Christmas party fashion guide to help create the perfect ensemble.

What to wear to a work Christmas party

Wave goodbye to your usual 9 to 5 workwear and say hello to a fabulous party outfit. The pinnacle of the work calendar, the office Christmas party is an excellent opportunity to showcase your personal style. It can be tricky to come up with an outfit for this occasion, as the event might take place at an ultra-formal venue, or it could just be at your local watering hole. 

Why not celebrate in style with a sequin dress? Team this statement piece with subtle accessories, like a nude pair of mules, dainty jewellery or a matching clutch. A casual alternative is the classic jeans and a dressy top combination. Just add a pair of kitten heels and a luxurious faux fur jacket for a chic take on a familiar look.

Full Length Gown

It’s tricky to find an event where you can go all-out with a classy dress, but a formal Christmas party is just the place. Complete the look with paired-down accessories and elegant heels.

Power Suit

If a dress is not your thing, a suit will be your best bet. Be the belle of the ball with a brightly coloured two-piece that will make a statement.

Bold Trousers

Whether you go for a wide-leg, slim or flared cut, a statement trouser will turn heads. Make things extra Christmassy with velvet trousers or a bold pattern choice.

Glam Heels

A gorgeous pair of heels will instantly, and quite literally, elevate any look. If you lack confidence walking in heels, a block design will give you that extra support and stability to help you strut in style.

Festive Jumpers

A true classic, a Christmas jumper will add a festive touch to any casual outfit. Get some guaranteed laughs with novelty fits, or keep it cool with a more fashion-led design.

Velvet

Even in a casual outfit, a splash of velvet will add a touch of luxury, perfect for this time of year. Velvet fashion comes in all shapes and sizes, from bold blazers to subtle clutch bags. However you weave velvet into your casual look, pair with delicate materials like satin and lace for added elegance. 

Christmassy Accessories

For casual events, accessories are essential - they can transform the most basic of outfits into a seasonal hit. Think dazzling jewellery, a glittery bag or statement shoes

Christmas House Party Outfit Ideas

Will you be hosting your friends and family this December? Or are you attending a party hosted by a loved one? A house party typically follows the smart-casual dress code, which can often be tricky to master. But fear not; we’re here with the inside scoop on smart-casual Christmas party outfits. 

For the bottoms, you can’t go wrong with leather trousers. A wardrobe staple that’s an absolute must this winter, leather trousers will instantly dress up a casual jumper or T-Shirt. Alternatively, if you’d like to stick to jeans, add some glamour with a festive blouse. You could even layer up with a blazer to add a formal touch to a casual look.

As always, the key to Christmas party fashion is to pick an outfit that makes you feel your best. If you're still deciding on what to wear on New Year's Eve, read our edit.
