The countdown to 2016 is on, and there's still time to hunt for the perfect look for your New Year's Eve festivities. With the holidays being the perfect excuse to dress up and up the glamour, a sequinned dress is always a great choice to make the ultimate statement.

If an all-over sparkly look is not up your alley, opt for a dress with sequinned accents, or a solid colour such as white, and add statement accessories such as a sparkly clutch and jewellery.

Pick a bold, red dress to make you stand out from the crowd. Depending on your taste, choose a flowing dress to show off your passionate side or a mermaid-style dress for an even more outstanding effect. And if you are bold, don't shy away from slits.
