EVERY TREND YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR PARTY SEASON

Question: what are we wearing for party season? Answer: we're looking to celebs like Dua Lipa and Hailey Bieber for inspo – think bold 80s-inspired silhouettes and the structured-yet-super-femme aesthetic they do so well. Quiet luxury is out and reimagined LBDs, sequin-drenched 'fits and pops of primary colors like red and blue are what we’ll be reaching for. Scroll for the key pieces you need to start creating your A-list looks.

The LBD is a staple in any wardrobe, especially when it comes to party season. This year, we’re amping up the drama with satin, touches of tulle and sheer textures like lace and mesh. Add to the look with high-shine bags and graphic jewelry for a modern edge.

It's not called sparkle season for nothing. Whether you opt for a chunky-sequin bag or go head-to-toe in a sequin set, this season we’re mixing textures for a dimensional look. We advise finishing it off with some faux fur or a velvet jacket.

If you do one thing at your next party, make sure it involves romantic details. We’re talking lace paneling, ruffles, corsages and soft draping – as seen on the runway by the likes of Valentino and Prada for FW24. Finding a dress with any of the above will make it an instant party-starter.

More is more is the mood this year, so even if the look is already at a hundred, we’re still going to add to it with high-octane accessories. Think metallic finishes, geometric shapes, bow-front shoes, and, as already mentioned, pops of color and a ton of sequins.
