Glamorous Holiday Fashions

December 18, 2009 To solve that dilemma, look for holiday fashions that are timeless and comfortable, says Stephanie Sack of vive la femme www.vivelafemme.com in Bucktown. Look for soft fabrics, bra-friendly sleeves and straps, and versatile silhouettes that can go from event to event with a change of accessories and footwear, Stephanie advises. She has additional tips on standing out this holiday season

* Bold detailing will always be festive and appropriate for chic seasonal events, such as rich colors, a hint of sparkle, and luxe accessories.

* Trends this year are leaning toward inspiration from TV's Mad Men, including jewel tones, classic cocktail shapes and feminine ruffles. "We're also seeing very fun prints and fresh color combinations for guests at more casual events and parties, and the classic little black dress is a consistent go-to for a more glamorous affair," Stephanie adds.
