It goes without saying however, that this time of year is heavy on our wallets. And this year particularly, with the cost of living being so high, we wanted to take the opportunity to showcase looks from brands at various price points. Mixing high end and high street is certainly nothing new to Who What Wear. As editors we pride ourselves on each having a capsule wardrobe made up of a series of affordable staples, that are elevated with a few luxury hero pieces here and there. In light of this, for this edition of WTBYB, we have opted to style some forever partywear favourites, such as the Little Black Dress, and given style notes on how to dress these pieces up and down, to ensure wearability and longevity for years to come.
For some of the more trophy pieces, that make a statement with their voluminous silhouettes, feather details or rhinestone embellishments, we have partnered with leading rental platform HURR, who have saved our editors on numerous occasions when they want an impactful party dress (for Christmas, weddings or other special occasions), that won’t heavily impact their bank account.
So with this, scroll below for our eight party ensembles and tips on how to get the most out of them.
