How would you style this dress for glam Christmas work party?

Dress is 90's vintage. Long with a side split.

Have lots of options for shoes but can't decide 🤔. Simple black heels seem a tad boring.

Am thinking definitely no necklace due to the feathers at neckline so possibly some vintage rhinestone drop earrings and a cocktail ring for jewellery.

Any thoughts?

Fabulous dress. Is it black or blue? I can’t quite tell from the photo. I’d go for gold or silver heels. I agree with no necklace, and some drop earrings.

It's black @VenusClapTrap 🖤

I have both gold and silver heels but am leaning towards silver ones that have a little bit of sparkle to tie in with the earrings.

Wow!

I'd balance the flighty feathers with chunkier accessories

If you have infinite shoe options I'd go silver Esska platforms
Jewellery - arm cuffs and chunky earrings

Is this a dress that you've held onto since the 90s or acquired since?

I have been brooding today about clothes that I wish I still have (and could still fit into).

Ooh, love that dress! I’d go with silver heels, dangly earrings and a chunky cuff.

ASOS have some lovely velvet bow sling backs…

If it’s black (not sure if navy from the photo) then I’d go for a pop of colour (pink, purple or even red heels and bag) and red lips! 💋 Fab dress.

@MadameBethune I got it from eBay but am old enough to have worn in the 90s!

Have decided on some sparkly KG heels as per photo. I can't do dainty shoes and these ones are comfy enough to dance for hours in.

Not really a cuff kinda gal and can't be arsed going shopping again now so will just go for the vintage drop earrings (which are quite OTT in a Dynasty way) and some bling rings.

Red lippie a certainty 💋
