Variations: If you're happier in a low-key mode, do a single showy item (bright silk wrap, antique kimono, a little tasteful glitter) with simple black silk.
AKA: "Holiday threads," "holiday chic," "festive holiday attire," "colorful gowns," "carnival attire," "exuberant shindig," "glitterati gear," "fiesta fashion."
