A calendar full of holiday parties and social engagements means two things: a relaxing spa day is required the first week of the new year, and now is the perfect time for at least one new dress. Showcase your stunning self in a dress that fits your style as well as your personality, and you’ll feel like the life of the party.

Urban Goddess: People are attracted to your strength and confidence. You aren’t afraid to make a bold statement—in conversation or style. Your favorite accessory du jour? A beautiful bare shoulder. Show off your divine softer side in drapey fabrics and a one-shoulder silhouette.
Wallflower: You’re always surprising acquaintances and friends with how deep your still waters run. If you aren’t one to initiate a conversation with a stranger, let your dress do it for you. Watch yourself blossom at holiday parties in a bright primary color or jewel tone—you never know where an inevitable compliment like “that’s such a beautiful color” might lead.
Gossip Girl: Okay, so maybe you’re not a gossip, but there’s nothing happening in your social circle that you don’t know about. That’s probably because in something like an allover sequined dress that sparkles as much as your personality, you’re always the center of attention.
Fetching Femme: Your intriguing, euro-cool style is always turning heads. And who wouldn’t be drawn to you—like a Parisian to a great wine—in that slip-lined lace dress? It’s that party-style combo you love of chicly on-trend paired with notes of bewitching.
Classic Connoisseur: People are enamored as much with your style as with your poise and charm. With icons like Jackie O. and Betty Draper, you’re all about being grounded in the classics with a knack for bringing it all up to date with aplomb—e.g., a simple sheath dress with a modern, graphic print.
