Sparkly blue dresses for New Year's and the office party
A sparkly blue dress shines under party lights while long sleeves keep you warm in December. We make it as a short sparkly knit and as lurex midis with wrap fronts. In Britain you’d probably call it a blue sparkle dress.
A short shimmer for the corporate party
Our short one is a sparkly knit with drape at the waist and a wrapped skirt, cut close to the body. The round neck and long sleeves cover the shoulders and arms, so it feels festive without showing much skin. Silver or pearl earrings suit the blue. Black pumps or heeled ankle boots, thin tights.
Wearing it in daylight? Throw a long cardigan over it and swap the heels for Chelsea boots. For a winter party, we’d put a black coat or a cropped faux fur jacket over it. It’s a fitted dress, so we’d look at two numbers, bust and hips, and pick the size where both fit.
Lurex midis in navy and electric blue
The deeper lurex midi was made for a candlelit dinner. Its belt fixes the waist, the wrap makes a V, and you can pull it tighter or looser. The knit stretches, so it won’t dig in when you sit at the table for hours. Midi length keeps it right for a woman in her forties or fifties too, and the wrap softly hides the tummy.
Electric blue is the brighter one. That shade stands out even when a restaurant dims the lights, so it’s our pick for a work party or a New Year’s dinner. Stretch lurex sits close here as well, and ties at the waist let you adjust the fit. Going to a wedding as a guest? Add black heeled pumps and silver earrings, and pin your hair back to leave the V open.
Which one is yours? If you want legs out and arms covered, it’s the short knit. If you’d rather sit through a long dinner in comfort, a midi with a belt you can loosen is the better bet. A silver clutch or a black patent one finishes either.
We sew all of them in XS to XL, and if your numbers fall between two of them, send them to our manager. Lurex likes cool water and drying flat in the shade. For more shine in other colors, see our sparkly party styles.
Frequently asked questions
Is the blue closer to navy or royal?
Both, depending on the dress. One midi is a bright electric blue. The other sits right between navy and royal blue, so it works for anyone who can’t decide.
Can I wear sparkle to the office?
The short knit under a long cardigan works on a casual Friday, especially with flat boots. Lurex we’d save for the evening, when the lights are low and the shine makes sense.
Do you have plain blue too?
Yes, on our blue dresses page. Deep blue velvet midis are under navy midi styles.
