With Christmas just around the corner, it’s time to start curating those pre-loved pieces and start planning the perfect festive outfits to wear on repeat this winter.
From chic and effortless Christmas day outfits to dazzling party dresses, here are our top trends to play with when it comes to styling your way throughout the festive season, without breaking the bank.
Shake Your Tail Feather
Feathers have rocked the fashion world this year and are popping up just about everywhere, on trouser hems, stilettos, blazer cuffs and multiple accessories.
Feathers are the perfect fashion trend for those who prefer dressing in more neutral colours, styles and shapes as a way to spice up your looks without stepping too far outside your comfort zone. You can customise your own pre-loved pieces from last year by adding some feathers to the hem or cuff of a suit.
Sequins Galore
Sequins are without a doubt always on the party list when it comes to dressing up at Christmas. But this season expect to see many dazzling sparkly dresses, tops and accessories, just like we've seen on fashion runways recently, from Valentino, Oscar de la Renta and more. The rule here, is the bolder the better. Mix and match colours, sequin patterns and remember, there is no such thing as too much when styling sequins this Christmas.
Statement Outerwear
Never spoil a great outfit with a lazy choice of outerwear. It’s never “just a coat” instead remember it’s always part of the full outfit. From trench coats to aviator jackets, one fashion trend that will definitely be prominent this Christmas season is statement and oversized coats. Fashion trends may come and go, but statement outerwear will always prevail year after year and is always a simple way to spruce up your winter wardrobe.
Platform Overdrive
Chunky heels are a hit this party season – look for square-toed styles for a modern take on this disco-inspired trend. When styling them with your outfits, pay careful attention to fabrication and avoid cheap-looking leather. Velvet almost always looks luxe. When sourcing your heels look for simpler, more discreet buckles and fastenings than anything too statement. And if in doubt, go metallic – there are a multitude of options out there you just have to keep your eyes peeled for some pre-loved beauties that you can rock this Christmas.
