As we approach the final days of the decade, your calendar is likely jam-packed with holiday parties. You might even have two (or three) scheduled for the same night. Aside from figuring out your party-hopping strategy (and how to avoid those Uber surges), the big question, of course, is what you’re going to wear. For most of us, holiday soirees and New Year’s Eve are the only opportunities to really go for it with glitz and glitter; it’s now or never! But between end-of-year work deadlines, gift-shopping for your loved ones, and hectic travel schedules, time isn’t exactly on your side. 
 So we’re looking to the just-released pre-fall 2020 collections for some helpful holiday inspiration. Brock Collection offered a trick for winterizing your favorite floral dress: Just layer a cozy sweater underneath. Similarly, Khaite’s Catherine Holstein suggested wearing your go-to white shirtdress with black tights and slingbacks, while Chanel’s Virginie Viard layered hers with a tangle of ultra-long chains and pearls. 
 For those of us who would rather wear pants, Michael Kors Collection put a Western spin on the classic blouse-and-trouser combo with a barely-there lace shirt and steel-toe boots. Or try a glittering evening top like Oscar de la Renta’s, even better if it comes with a holiday bow. Find these and more festive style tips in the slideshow below.
