11 Party Dresses to Wear Now and All Throughout the Holiday Season

Evidently, sporting a statement-making party dress doesn't always entail wearing something super flashy or bold. Sometimes, the dress can just be simple, chic, and muted enough to dress up with other details like chunky jewels or statement earrings — just like this baby blue H&M Ribbed One-Shoulder Dress ($11, originally $13).

This pleated ASOS Design High-Neck Mini Dress ($60) gives a whole new meaning to embracing your inner golden girl. The satin style features a bloused silhouette that's breathable and (perhaps most importantly), also perfect for twirling. The high neckline also finishes the regal slip with a more formal touch.

Every woman should have a staple LBD incorporated into her seasonal wardrobe. This Uguest Floral Mini Party Dress ($30, originally $40) is not only a bestseller, but it also provides an updated and floral-infused revamp to the classic (and often mundane) little black dress style.

Regardless of the occasion or dress code, we're confident this WAYF The Bridget Cutout Long Sleeve Cocktail Midi Dress ($148) is a style you'll be reaching for over and over again this fall. The satin slip could double as the perfect wedding guest dress. And those midriff cut-outs help to elevate the simple gown with a sexy touch.

Achieve an effortless, '90s-inspired glow in this Lulus Hollywood Woman Lilac Satin Midi Dress ($58). We can't get enough of that ethereal lavender purple coloring — though the frock is also available to shop in several other colors, too. Simply slip into it and prepare to stand out!

Sparkle and shine long into the night, even after the party has already finished, with this Lulus Make Your Entrance Rose Gold Sequin Tie-Back Mini Dress ($69). The glitzy style pays homage to a swanky piece straight out of the '20s. We love the sexy, body-hugging silhouette of the dress, too!

Be the fashion superhero of any affair in this Ralph Lauren Cape Georgette Cocktail Dress ($195). The classic mini dress style gets a seriously chic and polished upgrade, courtesy of the gown's cape detailing on the back. That romantic red coloring is so regal and equally perfect for the fall season!

You simply can't round up the best party dresses for fall without incorporating a lace-embellished frock into the mix somewhere. We personally love the vibe of this classically feminine Hill House Home Collector's Edition Ellie Nap Dress ($175), which features a sweetheart neckline, puff sleeves, and a delicate pink coloring.

Looking for a party dress with a little more structure? This H&M Satin Halterneck Dress ($30, originally $35) should do just the trick. Unlike the classic black midi dress, this slip-style features a breezy halter neckline that's equal parts sexy and statement-making. The shell-adorned back straps are also so unique, you won't need to wear jewelry at all.

Bring the disco vibes to any party with an eye-catching mini frock like this H&M Sequined Wrap Dress ($55, originally $65). The glitzy number is wrapped in a sequin pattern that's sure to turn heads and also pair effortlessly with anything. Grab your favorite, colorful evening bag, and you're ready to go!

If you're hoping to go all out at your next party or seasonal get together, few dresses feel more primed to really make a statement than this ASOS Luxe Feather-Look Embellished Dress ($140). The mini dress screams luxury, despite its refreshingly feasible price tag. And the plunging neckline adds the most subtle and sexy touch!
