THE HOLIDAY SEASON BRINGS OUT EVERYTHING bright: lights twinkle on branches, candles flicker in windows, and gifts sparkle under Christmas trees. Even Santa glows in his fire-engine-red suit. But when it comes to party attire, we often trot out the usual suspects—black cocktail dresses and camel-colored coats—that are as drab as the weather is cold. So inject some oomph into your evening wear with a warm-weather favorite: coral.
In the winter, coral looks refreshingly chic when paired with a classic animal print. And the fabric doesn’t have to be heavy wool or cotton. Go for a light, wispy treatment that moves with every sway. Flouncy fabrics like silk chiffon may feel like resort wear, but with a bit of ’20s-inspired gold beading, the result is rich and sophisticated—perfect for cocktail-party season. Look who’s sparkling now.
