Can we all agree that half the fun of New Year’s Eve are all the New Year’s outfits? Each one of us has been to good parties (and bad ones) to celebrate the ball drop, but we’d argue, that what makes them so special is their ripeness for sparkles and shine. When else can you show up in a full metallic outfit or a fabulous faux fur with a shimmering skirt, tights, and sandals? Of course, we love to be festive, but we still want to look chic with our evening wear.
The key to putting together a great New Year’s Eve look often lies in commitment to the theme or considered contrast—either you go full-on sparkle or satin, or mix in something unexpected. Not sure what we mean? We’ll show you! Check out some of our favorite New Year’s Eve outfits, below.

Proportion Play With a Flash of Red
Here, long sleeves on top balance the proportions of a micro mini, and sleek monochromatic satin gets a boost from subtly shimmering tights. Red shoes are a nice extra pop.

Silver Belles
This look is the full commitment! All silver, everywhere. The key here is to keep the shapes sleek, so the metallic doesn’t feel too overwhelming.
Sequins for Day(s)
The unexpected component here is a little white T-shirt, which dresses down a sequin skirt and faux fur, making this look cooler and more approachable.

Party on Top, Sleek on the Bottom
Let this stunning Ulla Johnson tank be the star of the show by pairing it will a full midi skirt and festive, but not fussy, accessories.

Cool Contrast
Add an extra ounce of edge to a babydoll mini and heels by incorporating a rugged (but still polished) leather jacket.
Boho Disco
This statement dress doesn’t need a lot of extra accessories, but we think black tights and a skinny, silk scarf would be particularly fun.

For a secretly comfy yet still sleek look, pair a sparkly turtleneck with soft leggings and satin ballet flats.Home by Midnight Energy
Perfectly Polished
You don’t have to show too much skin to feel festive. Try wide-leg trousers and a bejeweled lady jacket for an elegant, celebratory look.
