Rescu. does all your work for you – we’ve found the best, sexiest party dresses for every occasion this holiday season.
Silly season is approaching and the calendar is filling up fast. From Christmas lunch, to New Year’s Eve, and all the afternoon cocktails and parties in between – we have the dresses for you. It’s time to get spruced up! Here are the best places to find your new favourite party frock.
Get into the spirit of summer with maxi dresses, kaftans and sarongs. For boozy lunches and parties by the pool, Camilla’s signature, free-flowing kaftans are easy, yet glamorous (www.camilla.com.au). In a range of shapes, styles and prints, these dresses are extremely versatile –beautiful worn casually with sandals and elegant when paired with heels for those parties that stretch on into the night.
The best thing about a Camilla kaftan? It can be worn 101 ways, so, buying one dress is really like buying many.
As the sun sets and the cocktails begin to flow, flirt in fun, pretty dresses. We love Marnie Skillings this season. Her dresses are feminine, whimsical and just a little bit cheeky. Our favourites are the Floral Badboy Dress and the Shadow of Flowers Mini . We love the softness and femininity of Zimmerman’s Fleeting Lilac Grid Tunic (https://zimmermannwear.com/). Channel girlie glam in Camilla & Marc’s Marionette frock, which, in bronze metallic, is sweet but sexy (https://www.camillaandmarc.com/#/domestic).
For a night on the town, make a statement in figure-hugging minis and colours that pop. For a splash of colour, try Willow’s figure hugging dresses in bold fuchsia, or red (https://www.willowltd.com/). Alex Perry’s Cindy Dress, a gold, one-sleeved, structured mini is sure to make a statement (https://www.alexperry.com.au/#/readytowear/spring-summer2010). A girl can never go wrong in Herve Leger’s timeless body con dress . Sexy, but sophisticated– there’s a reason women are still wearing Leger.
When the ball drops and the bubbly starts flowing, it’s all about glamour. For the ultimate in elegance, you can’t go past Collette Dinnigan. Her collection is full of beads, lace, and jewels, see the Pewter Lines Beaded Strap Dress and the Diamond Maze sleeveless, beaded dress (https://www.collettedinnigan.com.au/). If you’re looking for something a little more understated, try Sass & Bide’s Write the Future dress, a sexy nude mini with a touch of jewel embellishment (https://www.sassandbide.com/#/collections/fantastic_projects/ready_to_wear). For a soiree that’s a little bit fancy or, to secure your New Year’s kiss, we recommend Marchesa’s floor-sweeping, scarlet red gown .
And, if you find yourself with so many options and nothing to wear, remember, the LBD will always do the trick. We love Lanvin’s one shouldered, billowed-sleeve mini (https://www.net-a-porter.com/product/108616) and Camilla and Marc’s fun, frilly Taurus frock in black (https://www.camillaandmarc.com/#/domestic).
Happy shopping!
