The Men’s Party Outfits To Know

From late-night black tie events to festive family occasions.

Party season is on the horizon, and with the flurry of invitations comes the question of what to wear. For men’s festive outfits, maintaining a balance of polish and playful flair is key. Striking colours, patterns and materials can keep tailored ensembles from looking overly stiff. Red is huge for this season, so try wearing a bright crimson shirt under a black suit for a hint of festive grandeur at the office Christmas party. For family affairs, dressed-down tailoring hits the comfy-yet-smart brief. Layer a tee under a red blazer and pair with matching drawstring trousers for a head-to-toe look.

And your party season ensemble wouldn’t be complete without outerwear. Longline coats are having their moment in 2026, a timeless silhouette that instantly elevates an outfit, while tackling the winter chill. Neutral tones offer versatility, but don’t be afraid to embrace a check for party season. Discover longline coats in wool and corduroy for up to 70% less at [DESIGNER OUTLET].

For glitzy New Year’s Eve celebrations and black tie events, you’ll never regret investing in a classic tuxedo. Start with designers like [BRAND] and [BRAND] and you’re sure to find something special. A velvet suit also brings glamour to the occasion, while a red bow tie gives a nod to the festivities. For your other festive outfit ideas, premium knitwear and tailoring is a failsafe combination. Think cashmere roll-necks under suits for more formal dresscodes, or a polo sweater with black jeans for a considered yet casual look.

5 Stylist Top Tips:

  • Choose bold colours and luxe fabrics to give extra celebratory appeal to tailored looks, keeping them from appearing overly corporate
  • Add a pop of red through your accessories or a shirt collar to subtly give an outfit a more festive feel
  • A longline coat provides warmth on chilly nights out, and instantly refines any festive outfit
  • A classic tuxedo is a worthwhile investment for the black tie events and parties in your calendar
  • If in doubt, opt for a knitted sweater or roll-neck layered underneath a blazer for a staple combination for the party season

The Women’s Partywear Edit

Romantic lace meets dazzling details while red reigns supreme Body copy:

After returning the RSVPs, deciding what to wear for each event on your festive calendar is undeniably part of the joy of the season. For this season, we’re still riding the red trend, and what could be more perfect for party season than a showstopping look in this festive hue? For those relaxed family celebrations, look for red velvet dresses in classic silhouettes, or opt for a tailored two-piece suit in a deeper shade. You’ll also find plenty of red accessories at [DESIGNER OUTLET] for up to 70% off to deliver festive energy when neutrals take centrestage.

Lace is re-entering our rotation at the perfect time, adding a sense of refinement and soft romance to any festive ensemble, with brands like [SAINT LAURENT] and [FENDI] leading the way. For those after-dark New Year’s Eve soirées, play around with sheer lace skirts, layered over shorts and bodysuits. Black lace designs bring unequivocal allure, but this season we’re leaning into deep, autumnal shades of rust and maroon for a softer, more sophisticated feel. Experiment with cut-out details and sheer panels for a look guaranteed to turn heads, or introduce the texture with subtle details on your shoes and accessories.

If you’re wondering what to wear to a Christmas party, a sequin cocktail dress hits the brief while bringing a touch of glitz and sparkle. The metallic shine of a lamé jumpsuit is another elegant alternative, timeless for the festive season, and a shimmery clutch and heels never go amiss.

x5 Stylist Top Tips: 

  • Heavier fabrics like velvet and corduroy keep red on the style radar for the festive season
  • Lean into the lace trend for 2026 with warm, autumnal tones or classic black for an eveningwear staple
  • A sparkly handbag or sequin heel delivers a subtle hint of festive shine to office Christmas party outfits without overwhelming your look
  • Layer a sheer lace skirt or dress over micro shorts and pair with heels for a statement festive look
  • Try a chic two-piece suit as an alternative to your party dresses for a sharp, modern take on festive dressing
