The One High-Street Party Dress I'd Actually Wear This Christmas
Our qualifications for party outfits this year is relatively simple: It needs to be easy to wear, comfortable, look the part and have a little hint of luxury. Well, Other Stories (who else?) has only gone and hit the nail on the head with a cute velvet minidress that has already sold out once, but is now back in stock. Championing by countless fashion-lovers, including Laura Jackson, we can certainly see why it's flown off the digital shelves.
With a flattering A-line silhouette, retro ruffled neckline and stay-warm long sleeves, it's the sort of dress that will look amazing just with opaque tights and flats. Very Alexa Chung. It's far more appealing than any awkward, form-fitting, off-the-shoulder number, and let's face it—our party looks have to be sofa and Zoom-ready, so practicality is key. Trust us when we say that this is going to be a throw-on party dress that you'll happily wear this season then love for many years to come. Don't believe us? Scroll down to shop the look and see other options from Other Stories.
