The holiday season is synonymous with celebration, providing endless opportunities to have fun with what you’re wearing. Whether you’re into bright colors, sparkling details, or lively prints, you can find a holiday outfit for every occasion that is a gift to wear. From family photo sessions to festive parties, below is some inspiration to get you started.

Attending a Live Holiday Show

Nothing can put a little holiday warmth into your heart faster than the magic of a live holiday show. Whether you are seeing the Nutcracker Ballet, Radio City Christmas Spectacular, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, or another live holiday performance, you can’t go wrong with a wrap dress plus size, regular or petite. This is a comfortable and stylish staple that will be in your rotation all season long.

Posing for a Holiday Photo Shoot

‘Tis the season for professional family portrait sessions, which are perfect for gift giving or sending out photo greeting cards to friends and family. Choose timeless pieces so you can always look back on these photos fondly. Classic faux wrap dresses, sophisticated sheath dresses, and elegant jumpsuits are perfect for a holiday photo shoot.

Socializing at a Holiday Bazaar or Luncheon

Do you have a daytime holiday event, like a luncheon or holiday bazaar, and aren’t sure what to wear? If the event is during the daytime, think of casual dresses, sweaters, slacks, skirts, jumpsuits, and boots. Don’t forget to take your look over the top with plenty of finishing touches, like colorful scarves, fun accessories, and sparkly statement jewelry.

Wowing Everyone at the Work Party

If you work in an office setting, or your partner does, chances are high that you’ll be invited to a work party during the holiday season. Take a cue from your standard office attire dress code. Is it a formal workplace? Stick with conservative pieces like knee or floor-length gowns. Work in a casual setting? Bright colors, bold prints, and shimmer are likely welcome. Avoid anything too revealing or simple, no matter your work environment—leave the jeans and sneakers at home and have fun dressing up for the occasion.

Finding the Perfect Festive Party Outfit

Dressing for holiday parties can be tricky, so use the invitation as your guide. The location of the event should provide clues as to how to dress. If it’s held at an expensive restaurant or a five-star hotel, you can assume the dress code will be elegant. Suppose the invite says “holiday attire.” In that case, this usually means semi-formal, so shop regular or petite dresses special occasion ready for a classic party dress like a sophisticated, stylish sheath dress or flattering faux wrap dress. Opt for a cocktail dress or elegant floor-length gown if the event is semi-formal or formal.

It’s always better to err on the side of caution and dress to impress for holiday events rather than arrive looking too casual. So, when in doubt, stick to classic, timeless pieces like a faux wrap dress that provides a figure-flattering silhouette and enjoy the evening.
