Author Editor - 3 minute read
New Years Eve is the ultimate fashion moment – a chance to step into the spotlight and start the new year in style. Whether you’re heading out-out, attending a chic dinner, or an intimate gathering with friends, time to find the perfect outfit is running out. But don’t fret, as we’ve put together a list of 10 of the best New Year’s Eve outfits to step into 2025 in.
 
 
From shimmering sequin dresses to sleek tailored suits, and everything in between, this guide will help you nail your look for every type of celebration.
 
 
 So without further ado, let’s get into how to make your entrance as unforgettable as the clock striking midnight.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #001

 
 
Our Zanna Jersey Sequin Mix Midi Dress is not just any black dress, it’s a party dress set to rival the disco ball. You can ensure all-night comfort in this soft jersey midi dress, whilst its flattering ruched side and asymmetric sequin embellished hem promises to catch attention and cue compliments.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #002

 
 
Whilst we’re on the topic of sequins, it’s worth mentioning that they’re not limited to dresses. Our Hana Adalynn Sequin Bib Shirt is the perfect piece to elevate your shirt collection for party season. A sheer finish and sequin bib design make this collared shirt worthy of the spotlight. Style with tailored trousers or faux leather trousers to suit your celebration dress-code.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #003

 
 
If you can’t wear velvet during December’s festivities, when can you? Our Sula Velvet Short Sleeve Jumpsuit offers a flirty-meets-flattering silhouette, with its full-length silhouette giving you the confidence and freedom for dancing all night long. Grab your favourite heels, and hit the dancefloor!
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #004

 
 
Looking for a showstopper? Our Astrida 3D Floral Mini Dress is ready to make an entrance, with intricate 3D floral embroidery complemented by sheer long sleeves and an open back. Burgundy dresses are one of the hottest trends right now, and there’s no better way to see in the new year than on-trend.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #005

 
 
Another example of the perfect burgundy New Year’s Eve outfit idea is our Asura Lace co-ord. In elegant lace, this button-down shirt and flared trousers make the perfect pairing for every occasion, from dinner to dancing. The best part about a matching set? They can be worn together, or separately, ensuring you’ll get plenty of wear out of them in the future too.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #006

 
 
We may be approaching 2025, but the biggest trend of 2024 currently? Metallics. Our Elodie Sequin Mini Skirt showcases sparkling gold sequins in a mix of sizes, for a luxurious and glamorous appearance. Wear with a black top to let this sequin mini skirt take the spotlight, for a New Year’s Eve party outfit idea worth toasting to.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #007

 
 
Our Sequin Mesh Mini Dress is also on hand to give your wardrobe the Midas touch. This glistening gold dress presents a structured silhouette, complemented by keyhole cut-outs and sequin embellishment to catch the light at every angle. This metallic mini dress pairs perfectly with gold jewellery and a statement red lip.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #008

 
 
Monochromes are having their moment, with the added appeal that black and white will never go out of style. Our Velvet Carey Satin Bow Top offers feminine minimalism, with its soft velvet body accompanied by a pair of contrasting satin bardot bows. This top can be dressed up with a little black skirt, or kept chic with tailored trousers.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #009

 
 
Did somebody mention tailoring? Suiting has stepped out of the boardrooms and into party season, and our Whisper Double Breasted Blazer ticks every trend box. This monochrome double-breasted blazer perfectly balances the androgynous appearance, simply accessorise to take this New Years Eve outfit from day to night.
 
 
 
 

OUTFIT #010

 
 
If you’re wanting to glisten without full-on sequins, we’ve got you covered. Our Sela Lurex Midi Dress is a sophisticated shimmering style, its shoulder twist detail and ruched side flattering a metallic lurex ombre colourway. Gold jewellery will make this metallic dress really pop. 

 

 
 

 GRAB YOUR COAT

 

 

Now that you have the main outfit planned, there’s the commute to your celebrations to consider, not to mention braving the outdoors for the midnight fireworks. The solution you’ve been looking for? A faux fur coat. This outerwear style will ensure warmth and comfort out in the cold, without compromising style.
 
 
Whatever your New Year’s Eve outfit and plans, we hope you give 2024 the sendoff it deserves, and welcome 2025 in open arms.
 
 
From all of us at French Connection HQ, happy new year!
