How To: Wear Sequins

Author Editor - 2 minute read
It happens year in, year out – the minute that the Christmas party invitations go out everyone is hunting for their new favourite party dress. And there’s only one thing for it this time of year – sequins.
  
Styling them isn’t always the easiest but stick with us. We’ve broken down the do’s and don’ts when it comes to wearing the trend this festive season. 

 

WEAR WITH HEELS

  
Our motto is and will always be: “the more embellished, the better”.  
That said, don’t forget to pair your new sparkles with your favourite heels. Go simple with stripped back black heels for a look which is fit for your next Christmas party. 
 
  

MAKE IT WORK FOR THE DAYTIME

  
We appreciate that this is definitely easier said than done, but don’t be afraid to opt for sequins during the daytime as well. In fact, they could be the perfect thing to see you transition seamlessly from the boardroom to the dancefloor. Case and point: the sequin skirt 
Pair with a t-shirt and flats during the day and switch them out for heels that your feet can survive the night in.  

  

SEQUINS AREN’T EXCLUSIVE TO DRESSES

  
If you don’t feel like wearing a dress, that’s completely fine. We’ve got you covered.
  
A top might be more your style, and if that’s the case, our Hana Adalynn Sequin Bib Shirt is just what you need. With its sheer finish and sequin details, it’s a sleek, modern take on shimmer.
  
For a little extra sparkle, the Amy Sequin Blazer adds glamour to any outfit. With sequins that catch the light from the lapel to the sleeves, it’s the perfect way to bring some shine to your suiting. Pair it with the matching skirt for a full-on dazzling look. 

  

DON’T BE AFRAID TO ADD A POP OF COLOUR

  
Sequins don't have to be black. Make sure your dress is the centre of attention with a pop of colour. Our Elena Sequin Bow Back Mini Dress in forest green or burgundy red adds instant drama with its bold sequins and velvet bow at the back. 

 

When it comes to sequins, the key is to have fun and experiment. Whether you're dressing up for a festive event or adding a touch of sparkle to your everyday wardrobe, the possibilities are endless. Just remember, a little goes a long way, so balance your sequin pieces with more neutral or understated items to keep your look fresh. With the right styling, sequins can be the perfect way to add some sparkle to any occasion, whether it's day or night.
