WHERE TO PARTY DRESS:
Lavish Alice
In need of a seriously show stopping party dress? Preferably emblazoned with sequins that'll capture the spotlight as heartily as the Blackpool illuminations? Look no further than Lavish Alice's incredible winter collection. Feathers, satin and sparkle? Oh my! Nothing is off the table for Christmas 2026 and here at H! Fashion we plan to be waltzing around dressed to the nines until 2027. Our pick? The sensational red sparkling mini dress. Team with platforms and a glass of champs.
WHERE TO JACKET:
Barbour x Farm Rio
Who says countryside dressing has to be boring? For their third incredible collaboration, Barbour and FARM Rio are giving British heritage a tropical twist for Pre-SS27, bringing together Barbour’s quintessentially country credentials with the Brazilian brand’s more-is-more approach to bombastic colour and prints.
Inspired by a Tropical Greenhouse, the collection plays with the delicious contrast between classic British design and vibrant botanical flourishes, including two exclusive takes on Barbour’s iconic tartan. Expect statement checks, joyful florals and quilted outerwear, with plenty of personality packed into those wardrobe staples.
