January 25 marks the official start of the Year of the Rat – a symbol of renewal, wealth and surplus in Chinese culture. The Lunar New Year is undoubtedly the most important celebration in China, recognised globally by its traditional dress code of red and gold glitzy outfits and elaborate celebrations.
Just like any formal celebration, picking the perfect outfit to wear while you ring in the new year is a monumental decision. If you’re unsure of what to wear this Chinese New Year, there’s no need to fret because the InStyle team have you covered. From glam to casual chic, here are our top outfit suggestions.
Pump up the glam
New Year’s is the one time of year when being ‘extra’ with your outfit is completely warranted; so don’t miss out on an opportunity to be your ultra-glam self! Whether you prefer to jazz up an understated outfit with an accessory or two, or are committed to going full out, there’s more than one way to add a bit of glitz to your look this Lunar New Year.
Family ties
If a low-key affair with family and friends is how you’re planning on celebrating this Lunar New Year, you can’t go past a free-flowing sundress – in the traditional colour of red, of course. For a playful spin, Gucci’s Disney collaboration is a unique take on this year’s zodiac sign, bringing the ‘Year of the Rat’ to life through the eyes of Mickey Mouse.
From day to night
One outfit, two ways. If simplicity is what you’re after then we’ve got you covered. Take your look from casual to chic without the hassle of a full outfit change. We recommend switching up your shoes and adding a few extra accessories to transform this extremely versatile look.
