If there’s any night to really go over the top, it’s New Year’s Eve. We’re talking sequins and sparkles; glitter and glamour; shimmer and shine. Gold, silver and anything-but-basic black make up the majority of the holiday dresses we selected for dancing your way into a seriously glam night out, but we’ve thrown in a few unexpected picks too — just to shake things up. So pop the champagne, bring on the bling and let’s get this celebration started!
