Tailored Tinsel: SMYTHE’s Holiday Drop Is Party-Ready (+ Actually Rewearable)

If you’re already dreaming of sequins but don’t want to turn your closet into a one-night stand, SMYTHE’s holiday collection—dropping October 29—has the kind of polished, playful pieces that actually get worn again and again. Think tuxedo tailoring with a wink, showstopping sparkle that feels grown-up, and silhouettes built for movement (and dancing under the mistletoe).

Want to steal the show without trying too hard? Start with a sculptural bustier under the oversized double-breasted blazer with a tuxedo-blocked lapel—the bustier brings structure while the blazer keeps the look smart and city-proof. If you love contrast, pair the sequin-fringe set with loafers or a sleek ankle boot for a downtown-meets-disco vibe that won’t scream “costume.” For something quietly dramatic, layer the Not a DB blazer with lace sleeves over a slip or tailored pant—lace adds romance without losing the power-suit edge. When you need to feel cinematic and comfortable, the flowing keyhole maxi dress gives major red-carpet energy but is soft enough for a candlelit dinner.

SMYTHE’s holiday pieces are all about balance: glamour that plays well with everyday staples, and tailoring that flatters while letting you move. We spent time with the lookbook and loved how each piece can be mixed into a real wardrobe—wear the tux blazer as an outer layer between events, save the fringe top for a holiday dinner, and let the bustier transform daytime separates into nighttime-ready ensembles.

Mark your calendar for October 29 and get ready to dress like the holiday is your favourite job—glamorous, comfortable, and absolutely yours. —Noa Nichol
