Party season most often calls for sparkly frocks or an LBD, but a suit co-ord can look and feel equally as special in the run up to Christmas – it’s just down to choosing the right colours and fabric. And while our key inspiration might be a throwback picture, it's just as relevant today.
Sheridan Smith wore a wow-worthy pink set back in November 2023. The star wore a bright raspberry-hued double-breasted velvet blazer with the matching trousers, and layered her party-ready separates over a pink patterned blouse and a pair of platform silver heels.

Christmas is coming and what better way to channel some festive joy into your attire than with red velvet? Use this cover-up to add an extra seasonal layer to a glitzy dress.
These flared trousers feature a subtle stripe down the side for a leg-lengthening illusion. Wear them with metallics or to smarten up your Christmas jumper.
This jacket has a double breasted front like Sheridan's and will look fabulous worn buttoned-up with just the matching bottoms.
The pleats down the front of each leg give these floaty trousers a little more shape and definition for a flattering finish. Add a smart blouse and drop earrings and you'll be party-ready.
A deep peacock blue gives this tailored number a moody feel while being lighter than traditional black or grey. Wear it with the matching trousers or to add some oomph to your barrel leg jeans.
These loose, wide-leg trousers have an elasticated waistband which means they will fit snugly, but comfily and be easy to move around in. Tuck in a fresh white button-down or other jewel-toned tops.
Velvet looks and feels special at this time of year and can be a little more relaxed and wearable than heavy sequins or shiny metallics. Opting for pieces in rich jewel tones like the above will be perfect for the run up to Christmas and will make a style statement, so you can take a minimal approach when it comes to styling.
Add simple tops in soft neutrals or other warm gem tones, complete with sparkly jewels and classic heels, and you will be all set for the dancefloor.
