Longsleeve glitter dress, long sleeve lurex styles

Shine and warm arms in one piece, that’s the idea behind a longsleeve glitter dress. Ours sparkle thanks to lurex, metallic thread running through a soft knit, and every one covers you to the wrist.

Why sleeves and glitter belong together in winter

A sleeveless sparkly dress looks great until you step outside in December. Then it’s a coat over goosebumps all night. With the sleeves built in, you can leave the wrap at home and still keep your arms warm in a drafty restaurant.

There’s a second reason. Long sleeves calm the shine down. A short glittery hem with bare arms can feel loud, but a long sleeve glitter dress in the same length looks dressed up rather than daring, so it’s easier to wear in front of your boss or your grandmother.

Several of our lurex knits stretch. The blue wrap midi and the purple midi both stay comfy through a three-course dinner and the dancing after it, and the red knee-length one is polyester with elastane, smooth to the touch with a little give.

Mini, midi or knee length, and how much glitter you want

Going dancing? Pick a mini. The purple one hugs the body with a round neck, and you’ll want seamless underwear under it. The blue mini wraps and drapes at the waist.

A sit-down dinner calls for a midi. Our emerald midi ends mid-calf, which is just right with heeled ankle boots. The grey one is split up one side, and its shimmer is softer. Take a few steps at home to see the slit falls straight.

Some shades are quiet. Powder pink and beige glow rather than flash, so they’re good when silver or gold would feel too much. Electric blue does the opposite. You’ll spot it across a dim room.

Keep everything else matte. Plain tights, a simple bag. Shiny tights next to metallic thread are one sparkle too many. They fit close to the body. Take your bust and hip numbers to our size chart before choosing anything from XS to XL, and if you’re stuck between two, send us your measurements and we’ll suggest one.
