Nobody’s Child has dropped its 2025 partywear line-up, and these are the 20 occasion pieces we think will sell out first.
Nobody’s Child may have a bit of a reputation for producing a viral, sell-out dress or two - honestly, who among us didn’t spend an unwise portion of June desperately hunting down that polka-dot midi? But here’s the plot twist: you don’t need to count your sleeps until wedding season starts to get your next fix. Their festive occasionwear has arrived, and they're going to have a hard job keeping it in stock.
In true Nobody’s Child fashion, the partywear line-up hits that sweet spot between joyfully trend-led and effortlessly wearable. There's plenty of body-skimming satin, festive velvet that turns even the chilliest night into something decadent, and bows - lots of bows. And yes, if you’re still thinking about polka dots, you’re in luck - they’re back on the Christmas menu, ready to deliver the same main-character energy as their sun-soaked predecessors.
Let’s be honest, at this time of year motivation to get dolled up can be in short supply. It’s dark, it’s wet, it’s cold and it's hard to wear anything but boots. But Nobody’s Child has crafted the kind of partywear that makes you RSVP a big fat yes to everything.
Whether you’re shutting your laptop and heading out to see old friends, slipping into something wow for NYE, or dressing up for Christmas Day with the family, consider this your seasonal style cheat sheet. Ahead, we round up the standout pieces from Nobody’s Child’s festive collection - from cute cocktail minis to swishy midis you'll be wearing long after party season's over - proving once again that the brand’s magic isn’t limited to a warm summer's day. The party starts now.
