New Year's Eve—some love it, some hate it. But whatever your feelings towards the event, we guarantee you'll want to spend it in one of these party dress. So, what are the rules for New Year's Eve looks? Similar to Christmas, everything is more OTT (in a totally great way, of course) than the usual everyday party attire. Hence why we've found 25 of the fanciest of frocks to suit every style.
Style Notes: A red dress with matching lipstick is a timeless look that'll never fail. Case in point: Darja in lace.
We're personally keen to spend the last day of the year on a high, wearing the most fabulous dress we could find. And if this means all-over sequins, velvet offerings and satin slips then so be in.
