GOOD TIMES ROLL

The end of the year may look different spent at home, but the celebrations shall go on. Dressing up for occasions with our nearest and dearest means party looks get a grounded rework. An ease underpinning festive glamour not only makes sense for now, but

POLKA FACE

Praise to the blouse, says Balenciaga’s Demna Gvasalia. Black polka dots get a refresh against a fuchsia backdrop for an out-of-office feel, and with sweeping sleeves, this version reads anything but prim. Go with the flow to let summer in. Balenciaga shirt and skirt, both P.O.A. Louise Olsen x Alex and Trahanas earrings, $290. Bulgari ring, $3,900.

FEATHER WEATHER

Michael Lo Sordo strikes a happy medium between glamorous gloss and low-key cool, taking cues from the prototypical WFH outfit: the pyjama suit. Pair with fuss-free flats. Michael Lo Sordo top, $890, and pants $990. Jasmin Sparrow earrings, $775. Bulgari ring, $3,900. Fendi x Chaos smartphone case, $1,750. Nelson Made shoes, $210.

HAVE A BALL

The old adage that less is more rings true in warmer weather. Rise to any occasion by trusting accessories to do the heavy lifting, like Tiffany & Co.’s drop earrings that offer an instant pick-me-up. Aje top, $275. Tiffany & Co. earrings, $5,450.

ACCESSORISE ALL AREAS

On the surface, Gucci’s polo shirt may teeter on the edge of casual daywear, but with the addition of a chain belt and gilded brooch – like a Christmas tree laden in tinsel – Alessandro Michele proves the power of metallic adornments to elevate humble silhouettes. Gucci top, $1,550, brooch, $995, and belt, $1,645. Sener Besim earrings, $290. Bulgari ring, $1,910.

SHEER JOY

At Saint Laurent, Anthony Vaccarello invoked the house’s 1970s codes. Here a filmy dress in cobalt with a belt, speaks to after-hours glamour and echoes the era’s Limelight Nights (1973), as captured by Helmut Newton.

LOVE ON TOP

Givenchy’s playful take on the going-out top is a clever show of skin, revealed among swirling appliqués. Team with shorts as temperatures spike. Givenchy top, $4,700, and belt, $550. Matteau swim top, $135. Esse shorts, $360. Louise Olsen x Alex and Trahanas earrings, $260.
