Motel: New Season Party Frocks revealed!

The party season is officially here and what better way to get in the mood than with a brand new glitzy frock… or ten?!

Presenting our new collection of gorgeous party wear, which will certainly turn heads at whatever ‘do you end up at this Christmas.

Here’s our pick of the hot favourites sure to be a hit…

Zig-a-Zig-ah! Ok, so the Spice Girls may have had their day, but zig zags have not and this clever print will certainly make you stand out from the crowd; a must for a girlie night out with your friends. Motel 1

Show stopper: Wow, this dress will make people stop and stare; in a good way of course. From the sexy cut, to the sheer panelling at the back, this glittery dress could well be the buy of the season. Motel 2

Floral: Just because its winter doesn’t mean you have to abandon florals altogether. This psycadellic print is grungy glam at its best and let’s be honest; we all love a cheeky playsuit don’t we?
Motel 3

Leopard print: Oh so hot right now, with everyone from the Minogues to Cheryl Cole being papped in it. This frock is perfect for leopard print virgins, as it’s not too in your face and the actual design of the dress is pretty classy. We love!
Motel 4

Jumpsuit: When a dress simply won’t do and you want to branch out, this jumpsuit is perfect for making that transition. It will take someone fearless to pull off the harem-style cut, combined with cut out sides, but hey that’s what Christmas parties are for- experimenting!
Motel 5

Sheer: This is the perfect example of naughty and nice combined in one lovely little frock. The black sheer top is sexy without being too revealing and the white collar makes it playful, yet party-worthy.
If only all dressing could be this simple!
Motel 6

Cut out: Proof that sexy party dresses don’t always need to be sleeveless, this gorgeous design comes with plain sheer and patterned arms, teamed with a studded front. Rock with opaque’s and fierce heels when the temperature hits sub zero and bare legs if you’re indoors all evening!
Motel 7 & 9

Maxi goes glam: Maxi skirts were the obsession du jour of the summer and it’s a trend which is set to continue way into the party season this Christmas. Team this floral design with a studded bra top and biker jacket to toughen up your look this autumn.
Motel 8

Graffiti: Anything spacey is having a bit of a fashion moment right now, so team that kind of print with a backless dress and let’s face it, you’re on to winner. Loving the strappy back detail too, which manages to keep it looking edgy.
Motel 10

Motel wins at Drapers Awards!!

November 19th, 2010 — 2:10pm





Motel was short listed for the Drapers awards this year for short order/quick response brand of the year, so naturally we donned our finest wear (Pete in a tux, Claire in an Erica Dress and me in the Gina dress) and headed on down to Grosvenor House, Park Lane, London.

After the champagne reception we headed to our seats spotting the presenter for the evening, Lisa Snowdon, on the way to our table. Drapers magazine editor, Jessica Brown kicked off the evening with a speech about how tough this year has been on the retail industry and the successes being that much sweeter this year because of this.

After our 3 course meal, it was time to get down to the business of the night, the awards and the winners. The winners included, wrangler for best marketing initiative of the year,  John Lewis women swear, Cardiff for best new department store/ department of the year, John Lewis.com for best larger etailer of the year and Liam Gallagher‘s(who was in attendance) brand pretty green for best menswear brand of the year. Soon enough it was our category, and the winner was described as “bang on trend, band on time”….and guess what? WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!! We got on stage, accepted the award (a rather heavy male turso), got a little kiss and a hug from Snowdon and our pictures taken!

We had a great night, go MOTEL!!

This lovely lady from winning brand Wrangler was also representing Motel in the fabulous Patsie dress!
