What to Wear on New Year’s Eve
Whether you’re going out, staying in or hosting, look to Liberty for some expert sartorial advice on the best New Year's Eve outfits
By: Team Liberty
When deciding what outfit to wear on New Year’s Eve, the very last party of the year, there’s no hard and fast rule to abide by. While some consider hitting the town in their wardrobe’s finest party dresses the only reasonable way to wave goodbye to 2025, others prefer the idea of lounging their way into January in their PJs, watching Jools Holland until the clock strikes midnight.
Regardless of the invite, the New Year's Eve outfit dilemma is a constant: how can you bring a touch of glam to a night on the sofa? What outfit best says 'exceptional hosting skills'? And is there any such thing as too glam? (Spoiler: no, there is not)
Whatever your plans here’s a few ideas for what to wear on New Year’s Eve...
The Party of the Year
Perhaps the most anticipated party of the year, if you're headed to a glitzy celebration to see out 2025: you can rely on Liberty to find you a showstopper party look. We’re talking dresses, shirts and trousers that burst with colour, come decked in attention-grabbing prints and are suitably dramatic in form. Widely considered the dressiest party there is, don’t forget to enhance your outfit with a party bag and don’t forget some dazzling jewellery and a chic coat to finish off your New Year's Eve outfit.

Fireworks Night
Nothing heralds the arrival of the new year quite like like crackle and sparkle of midnight fireworks. If this year's plans require a fireworks-friendly New Year's Eve outfit idea you'll need a look that combines seriously cosy, chill-fighting essentials with a hint of glam: what would a New Year's Eve outfit be without some sparkle, after all? Opt for a snug, oversized coat, paired with winter accessories that deliver a dose of sophistication - hats, gloves and a scarf are essential for all fireworks-watchers. To add that New Year's Eve glitz: opt for a playful party bag plus some elegant, bright gold jewels. Finish the look with a hint of sparkle in your makeup, and a bold red lipstick.

A Night On the Sofa
For some, nothing – not even the offer of bottomless champagne – can tempt them outside during winter. After all, it's cold out there, and Jools' Hootenanny is the must-see TV event of the year. But staying in doesn't mean your New Year's Eve outfit is any less important. Whether you invite around a few friends for a pamper night featuring your carefully curated home bar, or limit the guest list to ‘me, myself and I’: deck yourself out in Liberty sleepwear, grab that bottle of Buck’s Fizz, fetch the LED face mask you got for Christmas and hunker down under your duvet. You’ll soon see why staying in can be more inviting than going out.

Dinner Party Hosting
These days, there's no more sophisticated way to ring in the new year than with a dinner party. If you've volunteered your hosting services this year, you'll need a New Year's Eve outfit that's just as impressive as the dishes... and also looks good topped with an apron. One of the best things about hosting at home is the opportunity to keep things comfortable, while also looking your best. We suggest elegant knitwear, perhaps a silky skirt or printed dress and some showstopper earrings. All that's left is to source some suitably occasion-worthy crockery for your table...
