Everyone knows that feeling of panic when you have a holiday event coming up with nothing to wear. This year, stop standing in front of your closet hoping something will appear — the Reformation Holiday Collection has every dress shape and style you need for all types of parties. Filled with sparkle, shine, and velvet in those coveted Ref silhouettes, the collection is now available for you to stock up on styles for all your seasonal soirées.

If you haven’t noticed, the eco-friendly brand has been very busy lately, recently launching a collaboration with La Ligne as well as its new conscious cashmere collection. While you may have snagged a sweater or two, Ref can assist in outfitting you in the occasion-wear department as well.

The fashion-favorite brand (and a go-to for the Duchess of Sussex) has just released its holiday collection, and it has a black dress in just about every kind of style to make holiday dressing even easier. You’ll be able to find a full-on sparkly number as well as a more streamlined silk silhouette in the mix — both equal in glamour and festive flair. These are not styles to sit on though, as any Ref shopper knows that you'll often find yourself on the waitlist if you don't make a move fast.

Heading toward the cooler weather means you may be in the market for a long sleeve dress. You'll find several options that may fit the bill, all coming in a versatile black hue (including the aforementioned sequin style as well as the Carlyle Dress for $178). The ankle length style has a deep V-neck and slit front that makes it the perfect head-turner. During the holiday party circuit, you'll get a lot of mileage out of the simple Piazza Dress for $128. The midi length and fitted style will provide an elevated look that can easily be switched up with a quick change of shoe and earring.

If you're looking to add some color into the rotation instead, you'll want to slip into this velvet style. The Pyrenees Dress for $298 comes in a rich shade of toffee as well as crimson and gives off glam festive vibes. You won't have to add much accessory wise to this number — the ruffled edges and sweetheart neckline make it enough of a look to stand on its own.

If you find you're lacking separates for dinner parties and more casual affairs, scoop up the Viviana Top in navy or crimson. The silk style will pair well with everything from structured trousers to velvet wide leg pants, so you'll be able to make endless holiday outfits from this one piece. When you're not heading to an event, dress it down by styling it over a fitted turtleneck with a worn-in pair of denim for a chic night-out look.
