Stepping into a holiday party is always an exciting experience, but it becomes even more memorable when you’re wearing a dress that feels like a second skin. Finding a dress in a sea of apparel options may seem daunting, but once you know what you're looking for, it's a quick and easy process. Below are four tips to help you choose the perfect holiday party dress.

Know Your Body Shape

Knowing your body shape is the first step to finding a dress that fits you properly.Think of your body like a canvas—much like artists choose frames that enhance their paintings, you should choose dresses that highlight your best features.

Several body shapes include hourglass, pear, apple, and rectangle. Each has its beauty and styles that complement it best. For example, if you have an hourglass shape, a wrap dress plus size or regular that nips at the waist shows off a defined waistline for a figure-flattering silhouette. Once you find a dress style you love, it makes dress shopping much easier because you can buy the same type in different colors and patterns.

Pick a Fun Print or Pattern

The holidays are a time to let loose, gather with friends and family, and enjoy the moment. Why not shake up the holiday party with a bright, bold print that makes a statement? Whether you prefer delicate floral prints, classic stripes, playful polka dots, or abstract shapes, choose a print or pattern that speaks to you, whether a maxi or plus size sheath dress.

Accentuate Your Waist

Accentuating the waist is a timeless fashion trick that can make a big difference in how a dress fits and looks on you. Highlighting your waistline gives the illusion of a balanced figure, creating a flattering silhouette. For those with an hourglass or pear shape, it naturally emphasizes their narrowest point, but even if you have a rectangle or apple shape, defining the waist can add curves and structure to your look. One dress style that looks flattering on every figure is faux wrap dresses, as they draw attention to the waist without the hassle of traditional wrap dresses.

Choose a Color You Love

The holiday season may be upon us, but that doesn't mean you must rely on your LBD (little black dress) for all your holiday parties. While it's true that an LBD never goes out of style, the holidays are a perfect opportunity to step outside your comfort zone and try something shiny and new. Jewel tones and bright reds are always excellent choices for holiday events. They pop against the skin and automatically put you in a festive mood. If you've always wanted to wear a red or fuchsia dress but end up in a black or navy dress, this is your opportunity to shine bright!
