Which Aje dress should you wear to a holiday party?
Match the dress to the room: metallic for a party, beading and length for a formal dinner, colour and linen for a daytime celebration.
Marlo is the party dress: ruffles layered like petals, rouleau straps and a button and keyhole closure at the back. Hazel is the formal one, a black maxi with pintucks through the bodice, sheer tulle and organza cap sleeves, floral beading and beaded ties at the sleeve hem. Aquiline is the colour statement, a strapless Mulberry gown with a fanned neckline over a full skirt. For full-length evening wear, see Aje black tie gowns and Aje formal dresses.

How do Aje party dresses fit?
Take your usual size; Aje gives no advice to size up on any dress here.
Every dress model is 173cm and wears AU 6, which Coveti sells as UK 6. Rumi has a relaxed silhouette with tunnelled elastic panels; Aquiline has an internal bodice to hold the strapless line. Our Aje sizing guide has the chart.
How do you style a party dress for the holidays?
- Marlo: a black strappy sandal and no necklace; the rouleau straps and ruffles are enough
- Hazel: a black heel and small gold earrings, so the beading leads
- Aquiline: bare shoulders, hair up, a metallic clutch
- Rumi: a block heel for a lunch, a slim heel for dinner
Aje around the world
Holiday dress demand peaks in November. DataForSEO shows “christmas party dress” at about 90,500 US searches in November 2025 and 246,000 in the UK, with “new years eve dress” at 74,000 in the US in December 2025 and “holiday dresses” at 165,000 in the US last November. In Australia the same weeks are early summer, so the linen Rumi, Droplet and cotton Seravia are the lunch and beach-party choices there. In Dubai and Riyadh, December is high season for dinners, and the long Hazel and Aquiline suit it. Coveti ships Aje worldwide.
How do you care for an embellished dress?
Every dress here is dry clean only. Store beaded dresses folded in tissue so the weight of the beads does not stretch the sleeves, and keep ruffled pieces like Marlo on a padded hanger.
