The new year is well and truly underway and with the Winter season slowly trickling on towards Spring, we have a host of new styles on the way here at McElhinneys!
Particularly in our women's special occasion dresses collection, we have an exciting new range of styles arriving every week ahead of the busy wedding season of Spring/Summer 2025.
Here we've put together some of our top picks from show-stopping styles for wedding guests to stunning mother-of-the-bride dresses.
1. John Charles Floral Embellished A-Line Midi Dress
We couldn't start this off without a new season dress from the one and only John Charles.
This beautiful ice blue a-line dress is adorned with 3D floral embellishments and a v-neckline for an elegant look. The best part of all is that the gorgeous flowing skirt has pockets!
2. Maisonel Ruched Panel Handkerchief Hem Dress
A new brand to us that we are so excited to introduce is Maisonel, an Italian brand that focuses on exquisite, high-quality special occasionwear.
A favourite of ours is their Handkerchief Hem dress - available in four awe-striking colours.
The satin-like fabric hugs the figure in all the right ways with the flattering ruching detail along the waist.
The butterfly sleeves and drop hem in the front add a touch of dramatic glamour to the look.
3. Veni Infantino Jumpsuit and Beaded Cape
If you're looking for something a little different, this glamourous Jumpsuit and Cape from Veni Infantino is what you've been searching for.
The contrast between the ivory and navy exudes elegance. The jumpsuit has a tailored fit with wide-leg trousers and is paired with a striking ivory cape adding a regal touch.
The cape features a high neck and is adorned with delicate floral applique for a refined and elegant look.
4. John Charles Floral Bardot A-Line Midi Dress
Steal the show with this Bardot Midi Dress from John Charles. Finished in this beautiful raspberry pink tone, this dress is a stand-out this season.
The beautiful floral detailing of this gown sits delicately on the shoulders, while the asymmetrical hem draws the eye down the body.
A beautiful outfit choice for a Mother of the Bride/Groom to be.
5. Lizabella Metallic Jacquard Chiffon Sleeve Dress
Last, but certainly not least, we have this gorgeous Chiffon Sleeve Dress from Lizabella.
The metallic gold jacquard design catches the eye, while the pearl and diamonte detailing on the waist adds glamour. The chiffon cap sleeves add the perfect finishing touches for an elegant and glamourous look.
