Top 5 Sequin Dresses

Fashion trends come and go like the ebb and flow of the ocean. Suddenly we are awash with new patterns and must-have styles and just as we start to get used to having them around they retreat back to the fashion waters only to wash up again when the cycle continues decades later. There are some trends that stay for the duration though, styles that will always be good sturdy wardrobe staples…everyone has a little black dress and a pair of well-fitting jeans don’t they?

Another trend that never really seems to date is the sequin dress. Sometimes we need more than just a little black dress. Sometimes it’s just too safe and in the fashion world safe = boring.

A girl needs to have a little sparkle in her life.

House of Fraser have some amazing dresses in store this season and the good news is that none of them will break the bank. We loved this pink sequin body-con dress with long sleeves. Beautiful colour, great shape and above all it’s simple without being boring. Wouldn’t this look great with a pair of suede killer heels and matching clutch?

This alternative scalloped sequin dress from House of Fraser screams 30s glamour with a modern twist. You could keep it simple and match with nude heels and a simple ‘up-do’ or make it edgy and clash with a pair of black wedge-heeled boots and a slash of red lipstick. Having this in your wardrobe means you will never have to rely on that LBD (little ‘boring’ dress) ever again.

Those looking for luxury glamour will simply adore this Vivienne Westwood design, we certainly do. It has everything a woman would ever want from a dress: stunning floor length design, signature cowl neck and fitted waistline and more sequins than you could ever wish for. This antique-rose dress is pure A-list glamour. There’s noting more to say…it’s simply divine.

If an A-list price tag doesn’t suit your pocket and you prefer an understated look, then this French Connection dress provides a great alternative. This beautiful little number has an effortless style with a loose shape and scooped neckline; it’s almost glamorous by accident and this isn’t a bad thing. Sometimes simple is best.

For a more playful look that’s both fun and chic then this navy blue sequin playsuit provides a great alternative. It may not be traditional but it sure has sparkle! This little outfit would look fantastic teamed with vintage heels and a leather clutch. You could dress it up with a cheeky fascinator or dress it down with a nude wrap thrown over your shoulders and a pair of ballet pumps.

Many people shy away from navy blue as it can be seen as a dreary colour; this outfit is anything but dreary and navy is surprisingly flattering for most skin tones. This playsuit is begging to be worn with colourful makeup too – a pink colour pop on the cheeks perhaps or a playful dash of yellow across the eyelids.
