Party Season Has Arrived!

Party Season Has Arrived!

Office party on the horizon? Maybe it’s a festive gathering. Or a milestone celebration. Or an end-of-year bash. Whatever the case, the same age-old question remains: What on earth should you wear? 

Dressing for a work party can be a tricky task. You want to look polished on one hand, yet not overly formal on the other. Fun in a way, but still professional. So, how do you achieve that? 

Achieving a balance between a professional and carefree vibe can be challenging. 

But, wherever there is a problem, there is always a solution. And NFD holds the key to this puzzle. 

Check out the following work party outfit ideas to assemble your attire in alignment with this special occasion.

No worries. Help with the NDF work party outfit guide is coming soon. 

Here, you’ll find 10 stylish yet appropriate work party outfit ideas to have you feeling confident and festive-ready.

The Classic Black Dress

Truth be told: You can never go wrong with a black dress. It embodies the best of both worlds. 

Opt for a sleek and tailored version with modest see-through details. You want it to be formal yet exude some sexiness. 

Add a statement necklace or bold earrings to bring a touch of glamour, but keep the rest of your look simple. Slip on your pumps and leave your blazer on your seat.

The Wrap Dress

An alternative option, equally work-party appropriate, is a wrap dress. It’s elevated while providing freedom of movement and an effortlessly chic vibe.

Go for monochrome versions or discreet prints and stick to basic colours like the all-time classic black or neutral beige. Opt for red or another vibrant colour if your party occurs around Christmas.

And don’t forget to grab a statement clutch to elevate your attire.

The Tailored Suit

A suit adds a bit of structure to your outfit while still looking simple and chic.  

Choose a sharp, tailored suit in a deep tone like blue (Blazer and Trousers), deep burgundy, or emerald green. Add a lace camisole or satin blouse underneath for a touch of softness and elegance. 

Finish off your work party outfit with pointed-toe heels or strappy-heeled sandals for a chic, powerful look.

All About Leather

If you want to go a bit beyond the ordinary, go for leather bottom with a glamorous top. This combo provides a modern and daring look that is perfect for any occasion!

The Midi Skirt

For a cosier yet still classy vibe, why don’t you try a midi skirt paired with a simple cardi

It’s a balance of smart and comfortable, perfect for an office party happening on a Friday evening.

Go for metallic or sequined skirts to add a bit of festive sparkle, and pair them with ankle boots for a trendy finish.

The Statement Blouse

If you want a simple yet still stylish outfit, combine a pair of smart trousers with a statement blouse. Go for something with a pop of colour, a unique print, or stand-out details to show off your personality.

Easy to ensemble, it offers an effortlessly chic look. Finish off with block heels or sleek loafers, and you are on!

The Chic Jumpsuit

Talking of jumpsuits, a well-fitted jumpsuit provides you with a well-put-together look. It is a fantastic alternative to a dress or a suit and is perfect for both formal and more relaxed office parties.

The one-piece clothing is modern, chic, and comfortable. Choose one in a luxe fabric like satin or velvet, and pair it with elegant heels and minimal jewellery for a sleek look. Throw on a blazer for office hours and take it off when the party begins!

The Co-Ord Set

Instead of the classic tailored suit, why not try the trend of the season - a co-ord set? 

The simplicity of throwing on a matching set is perfect for the work to party setting! NFD have a range of knit co-ords that are perfect for partying the night away during the colder seasons.

FAQs

Is It Okay to Wear Bold Colours or Prints to a Work Party?

Absolutely! 

A pop of colour or a unique print, especially in your blouse or dress, can add personality to your outfit while still being appropriate for a professional setting.

What’s the Best Alternative Outfit To a Dress For an Office Party?

A dress can be the ultimate solution, but not the only one. 

You can opt for a chic jumpsuit, vegan leather trousers with a statement blouse, or even a co-ord set for a stylish and professional alternative to a traditional dress.

How Can I Add a Festive Touch to My Work Party Outfit?

If your party takes place right after a formal meeting or a presentation to a client - and you don’t have the chance to change clothes, don’t worry. 

You can elevate your professional outfit with some bold jewellery, a statement clutch, or a sequined top. You’ll strike the perfect balance between fun and professional.
