Most of us have a weakness for a bit of sparkle, and this season's love for shimmer is the perfect excuse to indulge it. If you want your own dose of red carpet glamour, look to our sequin dresses for plenty of standout charm.

Statement sequin dresses

Whether you're an A-Lister or an urban fashionista, sequin dresses are the new evening essential. A sure fire way to make a statement, the sequin dress is a guaranteed head turner. Go for some starlet glam and choose a gold dress to wear with some luxe accessories. Beaded belts, faux fur stoles or even a faux fur coat will really step up the glam factor. Stilettos are your must-have footwear - go for ankle cuff sandals with beaded or sequin embellishments to keep up the opulent theme. Your jewellery should add to the look, choose black and gold pieces for some further drama.

Refined sequin dresses

Although sequin dresses ooze glamour, they can be refined too. Take your cue from the catwalk for this trend, with simply shaped dresses adorned with delicate sequins. The 1920s were the masters in refined elegance. Tea dress cuts, fringing details and beaded embellishments echo this elegant era. Dress yours with nude shoes to really make the dress shine. Slouchy silhouettes and scattered sequins will give you some subtle and refined allure. Choose a neutral coloured dress and wear it with some statement block colour shoes; a silver dress with red shoes is the perfect example of great taste.
