No Need for Sparkles or Velvet—This Is the Elegant Dress Trend J.Lo Is Wearing Instead
Jennifer Lopez swapped her signature jeans for the pretty dress trend fashion people will be wearing all winter long.
While my summer wardrobe tells a tale of easy linens and breezy cottons, my winter rotation always gravitates towards richer, more luxurious textures. Typically, this is the moment when plush velvets and high-shine sparkles have their annual comeback. But this season, I’m taking my cues straight from Jennifer Lopez and embracing sumptuous satin instead.
Channelling the elegance of a luxe slip dress, Jennifer’s pastel-pink, calf-skimming gown taps into the nightwear-as-daywear trend that's been gaining momentum over the past few seasons. With its fluid drape and soft sheen, satin offers a glamorous silhouette without ever feeling over-the-top, making it perfect for this time of year.
Her chosen style, complete with puff sleeves and delicate lace detailing, will serve just as well for a night out as it will a night in. Elevate it with a glossy pointed-toe heel for evening plans, or keep things understated with pretty Mary Janes for a relaxed daytime look.
Of course, you can always raid your own nightwear drawer to try the trend, but this winter’s collections are brimming with satin dresses that are well worth a place in a winter capsule wardrobe. From Dôen’s romantic favourites to H&M’s sleek, slinky iterations, read on to shop the chicest satin dresses to wear through the festive season and beyond.
