Let’s face it – you, our dear readers, are practically fam too, connecting with us daily on the website, Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest. Missing your vibes, we’re dropping some Instagram outfits that inspire Party vibes. Ready to dive in?
Bye-Bye, Barbie
2023 witnessed the Barbiecore craze taking over the summer. Many bet it was here to stay, especially since Valentino couture rocked an all-pink collection, and Greta Gerwig’s flick raked in a whopping 1.442 billion USD. But now, this all-pink phase feels like it was just a ‘brief Vegas marriage’, as journalist Amy Odell quipped.
What’s Next After Barbie?
Scrolling through Instagram, it’s all about red – at least in my Insta bubble. Fashionistas are donning red to mark the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, from a pop of red with shoes or socks to full-on red ensembles. Instagram’s saying loud and clear: 2023 is all about red. By the way, psych studies tell us red is a powerhouse in the colour spectrum, sparking emotions like bravery, love, passion, and growth. We’re sending all these vibes to our readers for a New Year filled with love and courage.
But black at a party is as quintessential as a flute of champagne – timeless and never out of place. You simply can’t go wrong or fade into the background in black.
And about donning metallic gold in 2024, with hopes of attracting wealth? Who really knows, and frankly, who cares? What’s certain is that you’ll be a magnet for attention, capturing every gaze in the room.
Let’s see our 7 outfits that inspire party vibes:
- LEIA SFEZ
Leia Sfez nailed it with this amazing black-tie jumpsuit from Victoria Beckham. Throw on a leopard print coat and you’ve got perfection.
- INNA FISUN
Paris-based digital creator Inna Fisun is rocking two holiday season ultra-trends: red and sequin. Talk about going bold and bright!
- ZITA D’HAUTEVILLE
Zita, strutting her stuff in fashion and tech at Google, is also known for her link-up with Jean Arnault, one of Bernard Arnault’s four sons. Her classic style, oozing aristocratic charm, shines in her party outfit: a gold leather skirt paired with a gold lurex top from Natan Couture.
- BLANCA MIRO
Can’t get enough of Blanca Miro, a co-founding brain behind the brand La Veste. Blanca’s choice? A simple gold jacquard strapless dress from Dior, paired with a Chaumet gold necklace and brooches. Chic!
- ANTIK BATIK
Antik Batik, the quintessential French designer label, burst onto the scene in 1992, thanks to the creative vision of Gabriella Cortese. From its inception, the brand has been synonymous with an authentic, bohemian-chic aesthetic. Picture this: a mountain party ensemble that’s the epitome of boho elegance. An intricately embroidered off-white dress paired with a sumptuous lambskin coat. It’s a look that’s not just bohemian, but also a notch above the typical sequined dress you’d spot at a ski resort.
- TIN VCB
Tin, a psychologist with an enviable closet, reigns supreme in adding cool touches that elevate her entire look. As an outfit that inspires party vibes, we picked a black strapless dress. Tin accessorise the dress to perfection, wearing a gold heart ear clip, black sheer knee socks and a pointed pump. 80s party vibes!
- JENNIFER BEHR
After diving into sculpture and art history, Jennifer Behr emerged to craft what’s now a trailblazing luxury brand in the hair accessory game. Her crystal bow lineup? Pure fire. It’s the sparkle you’ve been hunting for, minus the played-out sequin dress vibe this season. Trust me, it’s all about turning heads with subtlety.
And there you have it! Seven stunning, Instagram-worthy Party outfits that blend chic and cheer. Whether you’re into the bold reds or the subtle sophistication of a Natan Couture ensemble, there’s something here to inspire everyone.
