As we approach New Year's Eve I've been searching for the best sequin dresses for you lovely HELLO! readers to hang in your wardrobe and wear for years to come because sequins never go out of style.  

There's always a time and a place for a sequin dress - you might be after the perfect dress for your NYE bash, or you might be celebrating a big celebration over the festive period and looking for the ultimate wow dress. Whether you're looking for a sequin mini, maxi, midi, midaxi or ball gown. 

Quite frankly, whatever style you choose, you simply cannot go wrong with a bit of shimmer and shine. In fact, I spoke to fashion designer Nadine Merabi who told me: "The most flattering style of a party dress is the one that makes you feel like the incredible, unique individual you are. Fashion should empower and celebrate your body and your personality, no matter your shape or size. It's not about fitting into a certain mould; it's about embracing your own style and celebrating your own beauty. Your choice of a party dress should reflect your unique spirit and radiate confidence. 

She added: "When you feel good in what you wear, you'll light up any room and leave a lasting impression. So, wear what makes you feel like the superstar you are, because the most flattering party dress is the one that reflects your authentic and fantastic self."

As HELLO!'s resident sequin obsessive (ask anyone!), I wanted to scour the virtual rails for some of the best sparkliest frocks for you all to enjoy. 

The shops are filled with party wear options right now, which is why you need someone like me to cut through the noise. 

How I chose the best sequin dresses

  • New In: I'm not here to show you dresses you've probably seen before. I have scoured all of the new-in sections on my favourite fashion brands to find the latest and most exciting sequin dress for your big event. 
  • Modern Styles: This is a modern edit of sequin dresses. It's an edit that showcases various styles and for various ages. Though, in my opinion, fashion is age-less and sequins can suit anyone of any age. 
  • Cost-Per-Wear: I don't want you to waste your money on a sequin dress you'll only wear once. The beauty of sequins? They never go out of style. I've tried to show off some that are in the sales.

Editor's Note:

This could well be the statement dress of the season! And if you love bright colours, this rainbow dress will make you swoon. It also comes with an optional belt so you can nip it in at the waist as well - that's kind of like having two dresses in one. Talk about being a professional at girl math!

Editor's Note:

I adore this dress. Sienna Miller designed the ultimate sparkly sequin dress. It's selling fast so be warned, this will sell out. Sienna drew inspiration from the iconic days of disco from New York's legendary nightclub, Studio 54.

Needle & Thread Shooting Stars Black Sequin Dress

Someone please invite me somewhere fabulous so I have an excuse to buy this wonderful Needle & Thread gown. Adorned with shimmering embellishments of intricate star motifs, with clusters of tiny sparkling sequins that scatter towards the hem, this is the ultimate showstopper dress.

Finding a stylish sequin wrap dress isn't always easy, but this River Island dress is absolutely beautiful and would look great shoulder robed with a black blazer. Style with either knee-high boots or black stilettos. This dress is also available in plus size.

Swit swoo! ASOS has knocked it out of the park with this on-shouldered sequin number. I'm just imagining the audible gasps when you walk through the door.

Designed in a statement black and gold sequin stripe print, Phase Eight's party dress features a high round neck, long sleeves and a dropped waist to elongate your silhouette. Style with strappy sandals or pointy stilettos. 

Why you should trust me

I would consider myself an expert in finding sequin party wear. Every Sunday on my Instagram I do a feature called 'Sequin Sunday' and I share all of my favourite sparkly pieces. Follow me @leannebayley if you'd like to be bedazzled each week. 

Editor Verdict: The best sequin dresses 

This all comes down to personal choice and budget. If money were no object, and I had a fabulous occasion in my diary, I'd be choosing Rixo , Wyse London or the stunning Shooting Stars ankle-length gown from Needle & Thread. This is a brand loved by celebrities and royals - Princess Kate has even stepped out in the brand's Aurora Ballerina red sequin dress. If I'm on a budget I'll be looking more to the likes of River Island and Marks & Spencer. Both of these are beautiful evening dresses! I'm also a big fan of the burgundy dress at New Look - it's the colour du jour with the fashion pack right now. You can't make a wrong decision - you'll be the belle of the ball in any of these dresses.
