In a gorgeous regal red (the colour of the festive season, might we add) Topshop’s cut-out dress is the perfect ultra modern yet elegant number for the party season.

We love the contrast between the delicate skirt and the edgy cut-out panels – reminiscent of a certain Christopher Kane-designed Versus dress, no less – and the ruched detailing at the chest adds a subtly feminine touch to the upper body.

Pair with tough towering heels and an embellished clutch for an effortless evening look this party season, and to top it off, add a leather jacket to crank up the girly-cool contrast.
