Sheer Fabrics, Metallics and More

As the countdown to New Year’s Eve begins, evening dressing takes center stage as both a moment of celebration and a key retail push at the end of the year. It is the final excuse to dress up, go out and invest in something special, with styles made to dazzle and make a statement under the disco ball and beyond.

Sheer fabrics and lace dominate the holiday season, with lingerie-inspired designs, slipdresses and updated “naked” dresses that highlight delicate craftsmanship. The result is eveningwear that feels sensual, refined and effortlessly modern.

Nothing feels more festive than metallics. Gilded, silver, bronze and gunmetal tones define eveningwear, appearing in old Hollywood-inspired gowns, cocktail party slipdresses and liquid-like draped silhouettes. A hint of futuristic glam also appears in some of the most avant‑garde options, giving metallics a modern edge for holiday celebration dressing.

Dramatic volume defines the season, from Marie Antoinette-inspired panniers and corsetry to 1980s-style ruffles and oversize parachute dresses. Exaggerated shapes turn eveningwear into head-turning statements, balancing historical drama with bold impact.

Texture and embellishment are the ultimate choice to turn up the celebratory spirit. Sequins, feathers and fringes add movement and fun, transforming eveningwear into the ultimate party pieces.

Rounding out the season is the return of Le Smoking. The iconic tuxedo offers a sharp alternative to the gown, delivering glamour, confidence and sophistication, carrying its cinematic legacy into every New Year’s Eve wardrobe.
