The Best Sparkly New Year's Eve Dresses
New Year's Eve aka arguably the best time of the year to dress up in all the sparkles is literally right around the corner! Last year my family did a HUGE New Year's Eve celebration down in Palm Beach, Florida at the Breakers, and it was my first time actually dressing up in a sparkly, floor-length dress, and I was fully obsessed. But what you probably didn't see behind my IG photos was the hours it took to find the perfect New Year's Eve outfit. You would think finding something gorgeous and sparkly would be easy, but I was proven wrong!
But to help you all out, I've decided to round up some of the best New Year's Eve outfits. From the sparkly black dresses, to the colorful midi dresses, to every other color under the sun, I'm ready to find the right NYE party outfit for you. Hopefully, with this curated list you'll find the perfect fit for the ball drop at midnight!
Floor Length Dresses
I have to start out with the OG dress that started it all, my New Year's Eve dress from last year! I don't know about you, but I tend to gravitate towards blue dresses. This one was just so perfect! I love the shape, the size of the sequins, and the color.
This dress is 100% for the cool girl who is not afraid of a sequined take on floral dresses! This one has such a unique style, especially with the two-shoulder bows and green sequins. Such a perfect statement dress.
It's giving sparkly white dresses with a hint of lace! I love this one, it's easy and a little bit of a slip moment. Perfect for this special occasion end of the year moment!
I truly feel like JCrew is slept on for sparkles, and this one proves me right. It's the perfect New Year's Eve attire with the silver sequins! Also, I think it should be very comfortable and easy to move around in.
My light purple dress girls, please stand up! I think this is the perfect outfit if you're looking for sequins and a little bit of color (but nothing overwhelming). I love the halter neckline too!
Midi Dresses
This is such a classic, black sparkly dress. The bow at the back is truly the cherry on top! I love that you can wear this to so many occasions after New Year's too.
I always think of this dress as what Charlotte York may wear to a New Year's party. It's one of the prettiest pink dresses out there with both sequins AND stripes AND fringe, but somehow it strikes a perfect balance!
This is such a bold statement in a 1920s way. I love how we're doing a little bit of a throwback but in this very modern way! I could see this paired so nicely with one of those faux fur coats. Mob wife perhaps?
To me this feels like what an ice skater would wear to New Year's Eve. I love how it's so delicate and feminine! The shape is also sooo divine, I think it could be the perfect look.
You already know how much I love my sequin dresses, and the sequins are SO good in this one! I love the tie front too, so stylish and just one of those perfect New Year's Eve dresses.
Mini Dresses
This mini dress is SO fun. I love the colorful sequins here! The black and blue jewel tone sparkles is the perfect detail on this long sleeve dress.
This dress feels like my blue New Year's Eve dress but in white and short. Could be perfect for any bride getting married in 2025 and wants to kick things off with this white dress!
I love a champagne dress moment, especially when there are long sleeves involved. Sometimes I don't think there are enough sequined long sleeve dresses out there, but this one just hits so right.
Okay, maybe not the most outright sequined thing out there, but the metallic shininess is just stunning! I love red dresses, and this one fits both the holiday AND New Year's energy.
If you're looking for a different mini dress than the ones you typically see, this is the one for you. It is SO cool with the corseted waist situation! I also love the gold.
I hope all these New Year's Eve outfit ideas spark something for you all! Don't stress too much about it, I know you'll find the perfect thing and ring in a very happy new year no matter what.
