The holidays are here, and with them come the fun (and sometimes stress) of choosing the perfect outfit for all those seasonal get-togethers: Thanksgiving dinners to Christmas celebrations, and of course, New Year’s Eve.
Not to worry, though! We’ve put together a guide to help you find the best holiday dresses for all the festivities you have planned this season!
Cozy and Stylish Thanksgiving Dresses
Thanksgiving is all about comfort, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. You want something that looks great, but lets you relax and enjoy the day. Enter the Teagan Dress in Green Floral. This dress feels like autumn in fabric form. Its soft cotton material, flattering v-neck, and playful puff sleeves make it perfect for a cozy Thanksgiving dinner.
The smocked bodice and pockets? Practical perks that you didn’t know you needed but definitely do after a delicious turkey dinner!
Another lovely choice when shopping for thanksgiving dresses is the Dahlia Dress in Green. It has this effortless, timeless feel with sweet puff sleeves and a scoop neckline. Plus, the midi-length skirt with ruffle tiers makes it just dressy enough for Thanksgiving gatherings—while still being laid-back enough to let you enjoy that extra helping of pie.
Christmas Dresses: Festive and Fun for Everyone
When it comes to Christmas, there’s always room for a little sparkle and a lot of holiday cheer.
For a dress that’s festive without going overboard, check out the Andie Dress in Emerald Chiffon. The deep emerald green is absolutely perfect for the season, and the flowy, maxi-length skirt is elegant without feeling too formal. You’ll feel gorgeous and comfortable whether you’re at Christmas dinner or a holiday party.
The Vivi Dress in Green Floral is an adorable pick. The green floral print and puff sleeves are perfect for any holiday event and pair beautifully with your kids' fall outfits for some fun family photo opportunities.
And if plaid’s more your Christmas style, the Kimball Dress in Plaid is a fantastic pick for women. It’s classic, comfy, and festive without being too loud—just the right balance for a Christmas celebration with family or friends.
Modest Party Dresses For Work Events
Dressing for a work holiday party can sometimes feel like a balancing act—you want to look festive and fun but still professional. The Imogen Dress in Moody Magnolia is a great middle ground. Its moody floral print is understated and elegant, making it a sophisticated choice for office parties or formal events. The long sleeves and flowing silhouette add a polished touch, and the waist tie gives it just the right amount of shape.
If you want something that feels a bit more bold, the Tessie Dress in Emerald Satin is a real showstopper. The satin fabric brings a luxurious vibe, while the rich emerald color adds a festive feel without being over the top. The puff sleeves and faux wrap design make it fun but still office-appropriate.
For a more daring option, the Bebe Vegan Leather Dress in Oxblood offers a chic, edgy look. The faux leather material, square neckline, and fitted skirt make it perfect for anyone looking to stand out at a holiday event.
As you can see from our selections, modest party dresses don’t have to feel too corporate!
Embrace Glitz and Glam With New Year’s Dresses
New Year’s Eve is your time to pull out all the stops, and the Shiloh Dress in Black is here to help you do just that. With its intricate lace fabric and long, fitted sleeves, this dress is sophisticated, glamorous, and just the right amount of dramatic for ringing in the new year. It’s the perfect balance of timeless elegance and eye-catching detail.
For those who love a bit of sparkle, the Claire Dress in Black Sequin is all about that glitter and shine. With its tiered skirt and sequin embroidery, this dress will have you sparkling as you dance your way into the new year.
