The Best Holiday Party Dresses for Every Occasion

Maeve Tweed Fit & Flare Mini Dress

Anthropologie

Crafted from sparkly tweed fabric, the Maeve Tweed Fit & Flare Mini Dress is a fun and flirty choice for your holiday party. The fit and flare silhouette is super flattering on practically every body shape (it’s also available in standard and petite sizes too). While the chic mini length is cute, you can also wear a pair of white or nude tights underneath for extra warmth. 

We were surprised at just how sturdy and well-made this dress is, which means you can wear it season after season And even though its perfect for holiday parties, it also makes a great dress for New Years Eve or even date nights!

Lavish Muse Red Rhinestone Strapless Jumpsuit

A jumpsuit is a head-turning alternative to wearing a traditional holiday dress. And while there are lots of different styles of jumpsuits out there, this one is perfect for the holidays. It’s made from stretchy techno crepe knit that hugs every curve of your body. And the straight neckline is decked out in sparkling rhinestones, which adds a really fun and festive element to the outfit.

Don’t worry about the top slipping – this jumpsuit has supportive side boning and hidden no-slip straps. And with the wide flared legs, it looks great with sparkly heels or even a pair of black pointy boots.

Bow Wrap Dress

Mango

The Little Black Dress (LBD) is a timeless option that guaranteed to add some sophistication to your big event. We particularly like this Bow Wrap Dress for more formal office parties. The sleek collared neckline and long sleeves make this outfit a bit more modest. But with it’s mini length, you can still show off a pair of colorful or sparkly heels. Or rock your favorite pair of ankle or calf boots for a more cohesive look.

The dress is surprisingly very lightweight, so we recommend tights or leggings if it’s cold. But if you’re spending the night dancing and having fun, you’ll be thankful for the breathable fabric!

One Shoulder Long Dress

Skims

Trust us – you’ll wow everyone at the party in this figure-hugging long dress. Made from soft and silky ribbed modal, this dress has a sweeping asymmetrical neck with an exposed shoulder. The column skirt goes all the way down to the floor, so it’s a nice option for more elegant or formal affairs.

It comes in two holiday-themed colors. One is a deep red (bordeaux) while the other is a classic black. Either one will be a show stealer at any holiday party you attend!

Eloise Dress

The cut and silhouette on this dress makes it one of our favorite holiday party dresses! The bodice of the Eloise Dress is sleek and form-fitting – almost like a leotard or bodysuit. But the mini bubble skirt is what makes this dress really unique! It hits rights at mid-thigh and is full of bounce and movement. 

Fabric-wise, the dress is made from super-stretch ribbed knit, which feels like a second skin. It even has a pull-over design, so you don’t have to fumble with buttons or zippers. Pair it with flats for a casual affair or with black heels for a classier event. Don’t forget the gold earrings or necklace as a final touch!

Red is a sexy color to wear for any occasion, but it’s especially stunning during the holidays! The Otto Knit Poplin Combo Mini Dress comes in a striking red cotton fabric. The high neck and long sleeves makes it suitable for office parties or formal wear (you can always add statement jewelry to liven up the look). 

The trumpet-style dress flairs out around mid-thigh and is accentuated by a ruffled poplin hem. All-in-all, its sleek, sophisticated, and perfect for celebrating the fun festivities.

Not all holiday dresses have to be formal. If you want something a bit more light and casual, look no further than the Avelle Shirred Off-Shoulder Tulle Dress. This dress is made with an all-over shirred finish with layered tulle trim. With a sheath silhouette, it is a bit figure-hugging. But with the long sleeves and below-knee hem, it’s still suitable for a classy party. 

Plus, having the off-the-shoulder neckline means you can show off some skin! For this reason, it’s one of our favorite holiday party dresses on this list.

Sheryl Tailored Crystal-Button Mini Dress

Channel your inner retro party girl with the Sheryl Tailored Crystal-Button Mini Dress. The crystal-embellished buttons that run up the front add just the right amount of festive shimmer. However, there are also some matching buttons on the cuffs for even more sparkle and glam.

The mini dress has a white, contrasting collar that’s reminiscent of 1960s mod. But don’t worry, this dress is anything but dated! Pair it with kitten heels, Mary Janes, or your strappy heels for fresh and modern look.
