FA S H I O N Festively fabulous CHRISTMAS PARTIES ARE BACK - AND AFTER A 2020 FESTIVE SEASON SPENT IN LOUNGEWEAR, THIS YEAR IT’S TIME TO GO BIG OR GO HOME. BUT CHOOSE WISELY, SAYS AMY NORBURY IF everything goes to plan, we’ll all be making up for lost time this month with the first Christmas parties, festive friends get-togethers and New Year’s Eve celebrations since way back in 2019 - you know, before the C-word had even been uttered and changed life as we know it. So it’s unsurprising that, after spending last Christmas at home in loungewear, this year we want to party like it’s 1999 - and with outfits to match. Out go the hoodies, joggers and sensible shoes, and in come all things glitter, sequin and fabulous; after all, party season is the time to have fun with your wardrobe, experimenting with texture, colour and bold accessories. But if there’s one thing the last two years have taught us, it’s to be more mindful of what we buy. Over the party season especially, it’s all too easy to fall into the fast fashion trap, spending on party pieces which will be worn once and never see the light of day again. The fashion industry, thankfully, seems to be taking lessons from such torrid times, with more of an emphasis on sustainable style and timeless classics than ever before. So if you’re splurging on a new outfit for the Christmas party season then the key word is ‘investment’. Go for something well-made and with enduring appeal, which you will be able to look and feel fabulous in for many more Christmases to come. Key trends which come along year on year during the festive season include bold embellishments - think sequins and feathers galore - as well as sumptuous fabrics like velvet, leather and satin, which will all make for a pretty safe investment bet. For a more pared-back party look, classic leather trousers or a slinky satin slip skirt teamed with a chunky knit jumper offers effortless chic. If you’ve already got the perfect party piece hanging in your wardrobe, then it’s easy to refresh your look with some well-chosen statement accessories. Add some cool heels, and go for big earrings - the sparklier and closer to your shoulder, the better - to make even the simplest outfit party-worthy.
