Tiring of the old party dress cliché? This year, step out of your festive comfort zone, leave behind the little black dress, and invest in some alternative partywear. We're talking tailoring, slip skirts and funky knitwear.


The tailored look

Simple and chic, we can't get enough of this navy suit for Chirstmas festivities. The classic navy colouring will never go out of style, while the chunky knit in a vibrant houndstooth print lends a sense of festive cheer. Pair with some heeled boots and you've got an answer to the dressing up without wearing a dress conundrum. 

The blazer and skirt combo

Subtle and stylish, we're big fans of everything Anine Bing has to offer. And this party outfit is a real winner. Pairing a simple black slip skirt with a tank top, the outfit goes back to basics, with stunning results. The skirt has a gorgeous fit while the asymmetric detailing on the tank top makes the look feel unique. Finish things off with a classic blazer and you've got yourself a winning combination. 


The statement knit

A sweater vest, a denim mini skirt, and a pair of knee high boots may not be the most traditional party outfit, but it certainly has the makings of a look you're going to love. Perfect for a lowkey do, Ganni's sweater vest will be the life of the party thanks to the cute pop of pink, while the denim skirt and boots are a classic mix we'll never get tired of.
