Claudia Winkleman's black boucle minidress is the ultimate Christmas party outfit inspiration

Claudia Winkleman attends the 49th Broadcasting Press Guild Awards 2023.

There are some outfits that stop you in your tracks, and Claudia Winkleman's dress on Sunday night's Strictly Come Dancing results show is one of them. She combined the chicest black boucle minidress with cherry red slingback heels and gold statement jewellery—this is the kind of outfit you'll want to wear on repeat during the festive period.

Finding the perfect Christmas party outfits might seem like a far-off task, however, November has officially arrived, meaning that the festive period has commenced. Finding that perfect look is all about striking a balance between comfort, elegance, and an added touch of sparkle.

And Claudia's recent appearance ticks all of those boxes with a luxe boucle-tweed material and embellished pearl neckline and pockets. Finishing the look with gold chunky bracelets adds a well-needed touch of glamour to this look, making it festive and effortlessly chic - bravo to her stylist Sinead McKeefry.

Her fabulous dress is from Nadine Merabi, a designer well-known for creating exceptional special occasion wear. The particular dress has a contoured bodice that's perfect for shaping and flattering, and the textured material adds a sophisticated depth to the look. Her choice of cherry red heels is playful, adding the perfect pop of colour to this look, and this hue is in line with the colour fashion trends 2024.
