GOTHIC GLAMOUR
Sequins and glitter are always a festive favourite, but thisyear they're getting a gothic spin in head-to-toe black and a mix of texturesincluding velvet, leather and faux furs. Let it girls like Kendall Jenner andHailey Baldwin be your inspiration for this look; mix a vintage band t-shirtwith velvet pieces or rock head-to-toe black for an effortlessly cool take onafter dark glamour.
THE SLIP DRESS
You can't really go wrong with a slip dress. Thenineties-inspired piece has been reimagined for AW16 in a range of colours andtextures, including the season's key texture – velvet. We love the way modelGizele Oliveira styles hers, teaming a black mini with a chunky choker andburgundy ankle boots.
EIGHTIES GLITZ
If it was acceptable in the eighties, it's even moreacceptable now! Retro influences are making a comeback, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley displays how to work the look to perfection.

Why not borrow from the boys in a suit? We love the way LilyDonaldson has put a glamorous spin on her cobalt blue two-piece by addingbarely there heels and a dazzling diamond necklace.

The cold shoulder trend has been a major player throughout2016, and shows no sign of going anywhere just yet. It has evolved for partyseason to add a directional update to jumpsuits, bodycon dresses and blouses.
