Trendy Modest Dresses For The Holiday Season

The holidays are right around the corner, and we are sure you have already started some preparations to celebrate the new year in style and beauty. However, holiday evenings are always the nights we look for during the festive season, and finding the trendy, modest and elegant dress that matches the vibe is not that easy. We have done the research for you and we spotted the best runway trends to be this year’s dresses catalogue.

Take a look at the guide and shop your favorite trend to be the most glamorous during holiday evenings.

The Maxi and Shiny Dress

Long, straight and shiny dresses have proven that you can be modest and glamorous at the same time. Elongated silhouettes will definitely give you the right allure during the holiday season, especially with the high-neck, shiny and simplicity seen at Bottega Veneta in sparkly beige, at Valentino in pop and bright red, and also in Olivier Theyskens’ black satin shine. What we loved most about these dresses is that they are not tight and not too loose, and they are not too formal but they are classy and elegant enough for a festive night.

If you’re done with metallic gold dresses, then that’s your go-to for a modest look.

The Flowy Dress

The flowy maxi dress-meets-caftan designs always find room in our hearts, as they are modest, elegant, comfy and above all, chic.

They were frequent on the Fall 2020 runways, and they came in thicker fabrics. If you scroll in Roksanda’s collection, we are sure you’ll fall in love with all the designs, and our pick was the one with wrap sleeves and velvet flowy in burgundy.

The Aquamarine flowy dress at Oscar De La Renta definitely grabbed our attention, especially with the white stripes at the bottom, timeless yet fashionable. It became in more volume and more flows at Petar Petrov in the trendy brown.

The Caped Dress

Sophisticated, royal and elegant. Caped dresses this season did not let us down at all, in fact, they just gave us the best reason to look both classy and elegant. Givenchy’s caped dresses were the excellent example of a royal look. Otherwise, if you wished for a more powerful look, the Balmain dress in satin with the high-knee leather boots and black leather gloves will definitely be your go-to.

The Voluminous Sleeves and Shoulders Dress

Puffy and big were everywhere on the Fall 2020 runways. While some designers recreated the 80’s strong sleeves, others chose to live in the present and create some modern architectural sleeves.

At Balenciaga, the sleeves were sharp and dramatically big, mixed with flowy sleeves to soften the look. We loved the big puffed sleeves at Givenchy, talk about statement. And at Dries Van Noten, the old romance and modern drama mixed in an embroidered jewel-tone dress.
