They're Here: The Best Zara Party Dresses of 2019

We are officially entering the time of the year when holiday parties begin popping up left and right. Besides all the seasonal traditions that keep us busy, there are office parties, white elephant exchanges, and New Year's Eve extravaganzas to think about, which can only mean one thing: You need not one, not two, but probably a handful of party dresses on deck.
I don't know about you, but I don't want to (nor can I) spend my life's savings on expensive party dresses for every one of my holiday soirées, which is exactly why I turn to Zara season after season for affordable and extremely cute party dresses that still look expensive. As you know, Zara's curation of products can be quite overwhelming, so I narrowed down the lot from hundreds to dozens for your shopping pleasure. Ahead, discover the best Zara party dresses of 2019 that are surely perfect for all of the seasonal festivities filling up your calendar this year.
Fashion fringe will get you compliments time and again.
