10 elegant dresses from the mass market - for the New Year and not only
According to the principles of reasonable consumption, it’s better not to buy anything than to choose a thing that only comes in handy once. What to do if you definitely want to be in a new dress for the New Year? Choose a bright model, which after it will not be a pity to exchange for a swap for something more modest, or immediately look for an outfit that will be combined with everyday things. We tell where to look for cheap dresses and how to wear them after the New Year.

Zara
By winter, the Spanish chain stores are crammed with dresses, overalls and tops in sequins. If you have not yet had enough shine and rich decor, we advise you to pay attention to the striped dress with long sleeves of moderate length - the Ashish budget alternative is suitable for New Year's Eve, and then will not settle on the far shelf of the cabinet: thanks to a laconic cut, such a thing can be worn with a fluffy sweater or elongated cardigan.

Mango
For the New Year, sequins and rhinestones were delivered to Mango stores in abundance, but we rely on a long dress of rich purple color - simply and with dignity. Next summer, the dress will serve you well in the company of brogues and oversight jacket: in the spring-summer collections of next year, many designers have shown maxi silk sundresses of rich colors.
6499 rub.
Topshop
Peas, optical illusion and flounces - Topshop succeeded in what the mass market seldom comes out: the dress looks more expensive than its cost and easily transforms from extra-row (add velvet accessories, large decorations and rich glitter) to everyday (fairly thin turtleneck).
$100
H & M
If purism is closer to you of sequins, rhinestones and the ubiquitous velvet, take a closer look at the studio line of the Swedish mass market. A semi-transparent dress with a print is not the thing in which you want to celebrate New Year outside the city, but for a party visiting friends a silk model with flared sleeves will fit perfectly.

Monki
The American Apparel brand that has sunk into oblivion (there has never been a full return as it was) has turned velvet dresses on the figure into its business card. After the closure of the American brand with the release of velvet deep shades cope Monki. An emerald dress with a smell and a bow at the waist will be complemented by pantyhose with rhinestones and a golden comb in the hair - or a shaggy fur coat made of faux fur, if the fun on New Year's Eve moves to the street.
£40
Marks & Spencer
Delicate embroidery, moderate length and modest style - if not only a loud club party is scheduled for the New Year, but also a mandatory visit to relatives, Marks & Spencer dress will save the situation.
£79
Bershka
If money and time are running out, feel free to order the Bershka leopard mini: the red color makes it more interesting than the classic "predator", and the retrofile and long sleeve balance the length. Combine a dress with Cossacks and tight tights and boldly step into the year of a yellow earth pig.
2799 rub.
Reserved
Laconic cut sometimes looks no less solemn than the rich decor of rhinestones, sequins and embroidery - especially in combination with rich colors. We vote for Reserved retro dress and offer to review a couple of "Mad Men" series to choose the right hairstyle and make-up for the party.
1999 rub.
Stradivarius
Dress jacket with a secret: the lower part is tailored in the style of shorts, so that the model will not interfere with any acrobatic numbers or rampant dancing. The main thing - do not forget about safety and do not abuse alcohol.
4299 rub.
Boohoo
We do not believe that only a yellow outfit will help to lure good luck next year, and yet we advise you to pay attention to it - just because it looks great. Satin fabric of the dress will play in contrast with matte khaki tights and velvet accessories.
