Holly Willoughby's daring LBD is the velvet piece you'll be seeing at every festive party this season

Holly Willoughby stepped out in the perfect festive party dress for the Better Man film premiere, with the stunning velvet piece boasting a sultry neckline and festive diamanté embellishments.

The LBD is a party wear staple no matter the season and this year we're seeing it everywhere, from on red carpet to at the many festive parties we're attending this Christmas season - but no one has made so much of a splash in the style as Holly Willoughby.

Walking the red carpet at the premiere of Robbie Williams' new biopic Better Man, the presenter demanded attention in the Brooklyn Velour Midi Dress by Australian-owned designer label Bardot. The dress perfectly blended classic with contemporary, with the timeless pencil silhouette being updated by the luxe and heavy velvet fabric, a plunging neckline and the addition of festive diamanté embellishments around the bodice.

The Bardot dress is largely sold out across the internet, though you can still get your hands on it at Nordstrom, and it's no surprise that it's so popular. The dress is simply gorgeous, with the luxurious velvet fabric giving it a heavy and luxe feel while the structured statement neckline adds a daring and sultry element that elevates the look into one that's impossibly elegant - it's gone straight onto our Christmas party outfit inspiration board.

To let the dress take centre stage, Holly built up a simplistic, all-black monochrome look around it. For shoes, she opted for the Gianvito Rossi 105 Pump Heels in Black, with the minimal design boasting a sleek pointed toe and towering stiletto heel that leaned into the timeless and classic silhouette of the dress beautifully. The shoe style is super versatile, and a black heel is always going to be a party staple that should be in any and every shoe capsule wardrobe no matter the season.

She carried the Iside Suede Box Clutch Bag from LK Bennett which is no longer available to buy in black, though it can be snapped up in a stunning pale blue shade from LK Bennett that will add a pop of festive icy colour into any outfit.

The box clutch is a classic occasion bag, with many styles similar to the LK Bennett one now being available. They're super handy and often feature a removable chain shoulder strap so you can go hands-free if need be with a crossbody style. This practicality, in addition to the sleek and simple look, means this timeless design never falls out of style and we'll be seeing it everywhere this festive season.

When it came to her accessories, Holly kept things simple with just a single pair of small gold hoops hanging from her ears. Her choice to skip on a necklace was an incredibly trendy one, with many celebrities opting for less bejewelled looks this year, especially when their dress necklines leave lots of space across the chest bare. We adore the look but if you're recreating Holly's style with a dress that's lacking the twinkling rhinestone embellishments that her style does, a simple but shining silver necklace would quickly introduce that element into your look.
