Precious Metals: 20 party dresses to buy now before they sell out
The Christmas parties are all booked and every weekend until Christmas seems to be filling up with a variety of events with everyone trying to see the people they have missed all year. Unlike the laid-back nature of the summer soiree, the festive party season turns the effort levels up a notch and practically demands that an element of sparkle be worn at all times.
Luckily this season has been dominated by the disco-inspired lurex and metallics of Studio 54 as well as the shapes of bygone glamour which is ideal for those looking for something new to wear this December.
From retrofuturistic silver to the burnt coppers and brushed antique gold tones inspired by the late 1970s there is a metal for everyone. Those wanting to stand out a little more can venture into the realm of colourful metallics ranging from high-shine chartreuse to striped fuchsia and burgundy tones. Midi, mini, strapless or sleeves there is a precious metal for everyone we have broken it down into the two main trends this winter for you to pick from.
Cool hues: icy blues, vibrant reflective silver and anthracite greys: perfect for dancing in.
