The colour of Christmas

THE party season’s here and it seems we have all caught the glamour bug. Gold is bold, luxurious and eye-catching and is making a big comeback for the festive season.

Come the time of the office Christmas party there will no doubt be a bout of frantic last-minute dress-buying all over the country. Fortunately, a wonderful range of golden frocks is available in most high street shops and boutiques. The Stefanel Gold, from House of Fraser, would be great for a night of dancing, the Per Una twist-neck dress perfect for a more conservative do.

To complement this gold insurgence, a touch of black offsets an outfit beautifully. The retro glamour of the Vintage 1950s cocktail dress from Devoted 2 Vintage, for example, makes it a fantastic party piece.

Or take the mustard gold silk crochet dress from Lunacy, and accessorise with the black/gold velvet bag, also from Lunacy, and you have a perfect vintage combination.
