David Koma Party Dresses: Gold for New Year’s Eve, Crimson for Christmas and 12 More in Stock

0

David Koma is a party house. The clothes are cut to be photographed, they hold their shape through a long night, and the Pre-Fall 2026 collection now at Coveti is heavy on exactly what December asks for: gold and crimson sequins, crystal, velvet and a sequined check. This edit sorts the in-stock pieces by the party, from New Year’s Eve to the office party, with prices from $1,940 to $6,430. Every piece below is full price and in stock with the brand.

Key facts

  • Twelve party pieces at Coveti, $1,940 to $6,430, all Pre-Fall 2026 and made in the United Kingdom.
  • Sequins are 100% polyester; the gold mini and the grey fur-hem gown use recycled sequins, according to the brand.
  • The sequined check is 100% virgin wool, so the set wears like tailoring.
  • Care across the edit is delicate dry clean.

New Year’s Eve: gold

1. Sequin Draped Back Mini Dress, $3,850

Recycled gold sequins, sleeveless, with a draped open back. The midnight dress: short enough to dance in, bright enough for the photographs.

2. Draped Open Back Long Sleeve Sequin Gown, $6,430

Gold sequins to the floor, long sleeves, statement shoulder pads and an open back. For a black-tie New Year’s Eve, where a mini would be underdressed.

Christmas parties: crimson

3. Sequin Mini Dress With 3D Flowers, $5,180

A figure-hugging sequin mini with long sleeves, embroidered with 3D crimson flowers. The sleeves make it the December choice.

4. Sequin Gown With 3D Flowers, $5,320

The same crimson sequins and 3D flowers on camisole straps to the floor. For the formal Christmas dinner.

5. 3D Flower And Drape Mini Dress, $4,290

Crimson mesh, sleeveless, with a 3D flower at the neck and an asymmetric hem. Lighter than the sequins, for a party where you will be standing for hours.

The office party: check and velvet

6. Sequined Checked Cropped Jacket, $4,440

Cropped, padded at the shoulder, cut from sequined checked wool and fastened with poppers. Over a black top and trousers it goes from the desk to the party.

7. Checked Sequined Mini Skirt, $1,940

The matching mini skirt, with a hidden zip at the back. Worn with the jacket, it is a party suit.

8. Sequined Checked Midi Dress, $4,370

Strapless, with a sweetheart neckline and tailored pockets, in the same sequined check. The most polished party dress in the edit.

9. Velvet Trimmed Off-the-shoulder Midi Dress, $3,270

Black satin with a velvet-trimmed off-the-shoulder neckline. Quiet enough for a work party, dressed enough for the evening after.

The gala: crystal and black

10. Faux Fur Peplum Trim Gown, $5,470

Black satin to the floor with a faux fur peplum and a crystal pendant at the halter. The winter gala gown.

11. Crystal Star Draped Mini Dress, $4,220

Strapless black jersey, ruched throughout, with one crystal star at the neckline. The little black dress of the collection.

12. Crystal Star And Straps Midi Dress, $4,660

Black satin with crystal straps, one crystal star and an asymmetric open leg. For the party with a dress code that says cocktail.

Getting it right on the night

The fitting room’s notes. Sequins are heavy and cold, so add the Faux Fur Stole for arrivals and leave it on the chair. Sequins also catch on bags with chains: carry a smooth clutch. With the crimson pieces, keep shoes black and jewellery minimal, because the 3D flowers are already the jewellery. The sequined check wears best with a plain black heel; the Satin Slingback Pumps In Green gives the grey a single point of colour. For more, see the sequin guide, the faux fur edit and wedding-guest dresses.
