What’s your New Year’s Eve style personality?

Whether you favour a 1990s-style slip dress or a velvet co-ord, there is a NYE style to suit everyone, we promise...

Up there with sourcing grade A Christmas gifts and pre-empting wine-induced family politics, finding the perfect New Yearโ€™s Eve outfit is never a smooth process. Itโ€™s easy to overthink things; but if thereโ€™s ever a date to unleash youโ€™re sophisticated alter-ego, itโ€™s December 31st. In a last-minute wardrobe jam? Weโ€™ve got you covered for the big day – from menswear-inspired classics to high-wattage dresses.

FRENCH GIRL GLAMOUR

Youโ€™re all about: The tux

โ€œA tuxedo always gives a strong, timeless silhouette for evening โ€“ think Lou Doillon or Caroline de Maigret,โ€ says Browns Fashion buying manager Heather Gramston. While a classic satin black style is an old faithful, this season thereโ€™s tons of playful options to make a grand entrance over the festivities โ€“ from sequins galore, sleeveless and sweetie wrapper hues. Added bonus: this look demands very little styling. Pair with a sharp pointed pump or boot, minimal jewellery (if any), and a dash of your favourite lipstick, et voilร  – youโ€™re good to go.

KATE MOSS CIRCA 1993

Youโ€™re all about: The slip dress

Right next to over consumption of mince pies and too much vino, you can guarantee at least 10% of your virtual friendship group will post a throwback picture of Kate Moss wearing that sheer silvery slip dress over the festive period. While the see-through vibe doesnโ€™t quite translate to actual wearability (sorry, Mossy), the simple slip dress is always a good idea. A biased-cut silk style is the epitome of effortful effortlessness. In terms of accessories? Keep things low-key and let the dress do all the talking.

THE HOMEBODY

Youโ€™re all about: PJ party-wear

โ€œI canโ€™t wait to get back, snuggle up on the sofa and finally get through my Netflix list undisturbed.โ€ If, hands up emoji, this is you when people are popping the champagne, fashionโ€™s move to embrace duvet-to-dancefloor dressing will be a welcome wardrobe addition. โ€œOur pyjamas and robes allow you to express your own creativity,โ€ Asya Varetsa tells us, co-founder of cult Kiev-based brand Sleeper. โ€œThere are various ways to wear them and itโ€™s easy to incorporate clothes from your own wardrobe into a party look. Either you can either wear the full set, adding some pumps and accessories or wear pants and the top separately. Just go with how you feel on the night.โ€

VILLANELLE IN โ€˜KILLING EVEโ€™

Youโ€™re all about: The dressy dress

Minimalism โ€“ avert your gaze. This season saw the return to decadence in a big way on the catwalk; think thigh splits, dresses with feather hems, high-shine sequins and statement-making silhouettes. Fashionโ€™s more-is-more mood was also aided by that viral Molly Goddardโ€™s frothy pink ballgown dress worn by TVโ€™s best-dressed assassin, Villanelle. The overstatement is going nowhere anytime soon.

PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE

Youโ€™re all about: The jumpsuit

Hot priests, monologues on female pain, family dramas: we could wax lyrical about Phoebe Waller-Bridgeโ€™s masterpiece that is Fleabag. Andrew Scott fan club aside, there was one scene that sparked another frenzy in season two – when Waller-Bridge wore a wide leg halter neck jumpsuit (from London fashion label LOVE, in case you were wondering). โ€œI remember the moment I saw the jumpsuit,โ€ Costume designer Ray Holman said. โ€œWe were in a fitting and I said, โ€˜Look, Iโ€™m going to show you this, just put it on.โ€™ She [Waller-Bridge] put the jumpsuit on and went, โ€˜Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, this is episode oneโ€™.
