How to dress for a company Christmas dinner?

When it comes to dressing well for a company dinner, the balance between elegance and professionalism is paramount. Avoiding exaggerated transparencies or excessively tight garments is key to finding true sophistication, creating a more refined and attractive effect.

When it comes to colors, our advice is to moderate the strident tones. Instead, opting for classic colors never fails. Black, white, and neutral tones like brown are safe and always stylish options. If you want a bolder touch, garnets, olive greens, and gold accents can add originality without losing elegance.

Little Black Dress

With the arrival of winter and corporate celebrations, the Little Black Dress is the quintessential corporate Christmas dinner dress. This timeless classic fuses elegance and simplicity, perfect for a winter corporate dinner look. A figure-flattering fitted silhouette, with an above-the-knee cut, captures sophistication without losing youthfulness. Long sleeves add not only warmth, but also a seasonally appropriate air of formality.

Complement this iconic dress with eye-catching accessories, such as long earrings or a chic bracelet, that add sparkle without overdoing it. Black stilettos are the finishing touch, slimming the figure and adding a confident, elegant gait. To combat the cold without sacrificing style, a women's coat in fur or classic cut will be the perfect ally.

Lingerie look

A lingerie look is an elegant and sophisticated option for a company Christmas dinner. Garments made of light and delicate fabrics characterize this style, such as silk or lace. The long dresses with straps, in satin fabrics and lace details are the perfect base for this company dinner outfit. You can complete the look with a white long-sleeved t-shirt underneath, a black coat and heeled ankle boots.

Shining in style: a look with sequins

The holiday season offers the perfect opportunity to wear dazzling pieces, and sequins are a wonderful choice for a holiday dinner outfit that combines glamour and elegance. This winter dinner party look is ideal to stand out with a sophisticated and festive touch. Think of a silver sequin top, paired with black velvet flared trousers. This pairing of contrasting textures creates a balance between the festive sparkle and the softness of velvet, projecting a refined and modern image. To complete this look, a wool coat in a neutral colour can be an excellent choice.

Velvet: your best ally at any winter party

Velvet and winter celebration looks always go hand in hand: whether you opt for a dress, a blazer or trousers, we assure you that including a garment made with this fabric will add an extra touch of elegance and distinction to your Christmas dinner outfit.

Combine your velvet garments with other garments that maintain the sobriety of the look: keep the same color line in the accessories you are going to use and avoid prints and colors that are too flashy.

Blazer and jeans for a casual business dinner look

In a casual business dinner look, the balance between professionalism and comfort reigns, allowing elegance to shine through without sacrificing style. For the festive season, the classic combination of blazer, shirt and jeans translates into a versatile proposal that is suitable for both a daytime business lunch and an evening fraternization dinner. Opting for a fitted blazer in soft shades such as light gray or even olive green, provides a modern and less rigid touch than the traditional black blazer. Paired with a white satin shirt, it offers just the right amount of formality without getting bored.

The jeans, hero of casual business lunch looks, should be in a straight cut - neither too tight nor too loose - and in a dark color that denotes seriousness. A denim without tears or wear communicates professionalism, keeping the line casual and accessible. To finish this outfit for business lunch, neat footwear, such as pointy ballerinas or low-heeled ankle boots, elevate the outfit to achieve an old money effect.

A balloon-cut dress to dazzle

The magic of Christmas is in the air and should also be reflected in your women's corporate dinner outfit. For a night where elegance and style should go hand in hand, a balloon effect dress is a perfect choice; with a strapless cut that flatter the silhouette and a metallic texture that radiates its own light, it captures the essence of festive glamour. Draping on the bodice defines the waist before giving way to the balloon skirt, adding balanced volume and movement to every step. To complement this dress, fine heels in black to accentuate the elegance or in silver or gold tones for a dazzling contrast. Jewellery should be minimalist: simple earrings and a delicate bracelet will be enough to shine without detracting from this garment.
