Next’s £47 burgundy jumper dress is the flattering & subtly festive staple you’ll reach for all party season
Now that we’re in December, it’s officially party season with plenty of yuletide events on our social calendars! So, to quote Mariah Carey, it’s time. And while she may be referring to an acceptable time to start playing ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’, we are talking about the fact that it is finally time to start shopping for your party outfit.
While slinky satin slip dresses and statement sequin skirts are always a fail-safe option at this time of year, they’re not exactly the most insulating. Sure, staying warm in your festive frock might not be something everyone considers, and is often easily solved with the addition of a faux fur coat, but it is certainly a top priority for the practical fashion girlies amongst us (hi, it’s me!).
If you can relate, then you’ll definitely want to check out Next’s Burgundy Red N. Premium Sparkle High Neck Knitted Jumper Mini Dress that promises maximum style points with zero risk of freezing in the process. Win-win!

The knit dress is crafted in the season’s biggest colour trend, burgundy, with a subtle metallic thread running throughout the entire design. The result is a more understated, sophisticated way to do seasonal sparkle. With a chunky ribbed high neck, sleeves and just-above-the-knee hem, the silhouette feels fashionably oversized. And the best part? This beauty will set you back less than £50!

As for how to style the jumper dress, we’d add sheer black tights and knee-high boots – either kitten heel or a chunky block style, depending on your preference. Black boots will lend a polished feel and give extra formality, or if you can face going bare-legged, you can’t go wrong with a pair of trending brown boots.
