Rhinestone Fringe Mini Dress
This isn’t your average LBD. This black satin mini dress features a jaw-dropping rhinestone fringe trim that totally sets it apart and draws the eyes in.
You’ll have a blast dancing the night away in this dress since the sparkly fringe trim will move with you. Plus, the stretchy knit satin material will hold its shape (and is comfortable to wear). Pair this dress with some strappy black heels and statement earrings for the ultimate NYE look.
Mesh Bustier Top
Of course, dresses aren’t your only clothing option on NYE. A mesh bustier top is dressy and would look fab with some faux leather or wide-leg pants for the evening.
This top has hundreds of 5-star reviews for its quality, boning, and fit. It comes in over 15 different colors, so you’ll have tons of hues to choose from. The toffee, black, and white versions of this bustier are especially perfect for New Years Eve fashion.
Flared Rhinestone Cut-Out Leggings
I am obsessed with these super sexy flared leggings which have cut-outs on the sides and rhinestone chains. They are such show-stoppers!
Flared pants are totally in-style this season, so these trendy pants are sure to make a statement. Wear them with a cute blouse or crop top and some heeled booties.
Glitter Mini Dress
New Year’s Eve calls for sparkles! This glitter mini dress will make you shine. It has a super flattering fit. Its v-neckline, envelope hem, and body-hugging design make this dress a winner. The muted glitter is ornate without being too over-the-top, adding just the right amount of glam.
Plus, I personally prefer long sleeve dresses and tops on NYE because it can be quite chilly this time of year, especially past midnight.
Sequin Cami & Midi Skirt Set
Take the guesswork out of getting ready by opting for a matching set. This coordinated sequin cropped cami and midi skirt set was practically made for NYE! The allover sequin embellishments make this set feel so festive, along with details like the skirt’s knotted waist and cami’s crisscross back.
This set also comes in a cream/silver color combo that is equally as sparkly and beautiful.
One-Shoulder Mini Dress
Silver shimmer feels right for a New Years Eve fashion look. This silver mini dress has a one-shoulder design that is trendy and would look incredible with some black knee-high boots or strappy heels.
It also has a partially open back with a single strap running through which makes this dress as stylish from the back as it is from the front.
Faux Leather V-Waist Pants
If dresses or skirts aren’t your vibe for NYE, faux leather pants are definitely the way to go. These have a bit more flair than your average pair, thanks to their high-rise V-waistline and straight-leg fit. The V-waistline is going to make you look stellar and it is perfect for pairing with a cute crop top.
These faux leather pants also have stretch, making them comfy to move around (and dance!) in.
Sparkly Open-Back Crop Top
New Years Eve is the ultimate occasion to wear anything with an open back. This shimmery silver mock-neck crop top has a fully open back with a tie closure for a major “wow” factor.
Its sparkly fabric is perfect for a party setting and would look amazing with faux leather pants.
Velvet Cut-Out Dress
Velvet is another top choice when it comes to New Years Eve fashion. This fabric is heavier (which is ideal for December and January) and has an ultra-luxurious feel and look to it. The dark green shade of this dress is a fashionable alternative to black and the cut-out detailing is super eye-catching.
This dress has a total holiday vibe that you could wear this entire month! Why wait for NYE?
Gold Sequin Faux-Wrap Crop Top
Gold is another fabulous color option to wear on New Years Eve, especially when it involves sequins.
This sequined crop top has a faux-wrap design that is very flattering, along with its satin bow detail around the waist. The long sleeves also make this a great option for wintertime. Wear it with pants or a mini skirt for a dazzling look.
Mock Neck Ruched Dress
Nothing says New Year’s like glitter does! This mini dress has allover ruching that makes it ultra trendy, while its mock neck and long sleeves keep it looking chic.
Plus, the glitter knit-lined fabric offers some stretch that will move with you all night long.
Chainmail Cowl Crop Top
Ring in the New Year with a show-stopping chainmail crop top. This silver top has straps and a cowl neckline that give it a mega-luxe look.
The high-polish shine of this top is going to look incredible in your NYE photos, too!
Glitter Lace-Up Back Dress
A lace-up back dress is going to make a sexy statement on NYE, especially in sapphire blue glitter.
This find is a fan-favorite and features a form-fitting design, long sleeves, and a v-neckline. Its body-hugging fit is going to accentuate your curves and it’s available in 14 different colors if blue doesn’t fit your fancy.

If you want an ensemble that you’ll be able to wear to plenty of other occasions beyond NYE, check out this black twist-front bodycon mini dress. It has a classic design that you could also wear to formals, parties, weddings, and more.
The fabric is similar to satin, with major sheen and a touch of stretch to help it retain its shape. The twist-front and overlapping hem will flatter your body without revealing too much, making this dress so versatile.
Sequin Camisole Top
Sequins are going to add instant glamour to your New Year’s Eve look, whether you opt for a dress or a cute camisole top.
Light-catching sequins adorn this cropped cami, which also has adjustable ties to cinch the side of this top for a customized fit. You can even wear this top with jeans for a more laid-back, yet still festive, NYE look.
Faux Feather-Trim Mini Dress
If sequins aren’t your thing but you still want a little *drama* in your NYE ensemble, try feathers. Feather trimming is a major trend this season, not to mention super fun to wear!
This black feather-trim mini dress has just the right amount of sass to stand out and look fashionable, minus the sparkles. The faux feather trim along the neckline adds a glam, playful feel to the dress.
Glittery Skirt and Crop Top
Steal the scene in a glittery silver crop top and skirt set to steal the New Years Eve fashion scene. Though sold separately, this set still comes out to less than $50 and you’ll be able to wear the pieces individually for future occasions, too.
