Nykaa turns 12 in April and we’ve been planning the biggest celebration of 2024 for you. From free gifts to daily flash sales and offers, there’s a lot coming and we’re all very excited to begin India’s biggest birthday party from April 13 to 21. Since we’ve only got ‘birthday’ on our minds lately, I could not resist the feminine urge (as the internet calls it) to find celeb-approved dresses for birthday parties. Whether you’re crossing the threshold of teenage and entering your 20s or celebrating the big 30 milestone, you deserve to look your best as you ring in every new phase of life. Party dresses in 2024 include a lot (and we mean a lot) of sparkly sequins and birthday outfits are no exception. I love these glittery outfits that literally make you shine on the dance floor – it’s like being your own spotlight! For the minimal queens, solid colours and midi or maxi silhouettes are flattering styles that will match your vibe. It’s your special day, you deserve to steal all the attention. So, let’s get right to my top picks for birthday dresses in 2024 and the cutest celeb-approved outfit ideas that have ‘main character’ vibes. Taylor Swift’s 34th birthday look proves that age is just a number. Full disclosure, I am a biassed fan. But you cannot deny that the astronomical details on this dress (an ode to her Midnights album) look stunning and elevate the LBD silhouette. Recreate this look with the Cider velvet dress, which has a similar starburst detail, and received great ratings. You can trust the Gen-Z brand for good quality dresses in the latest styles. Take the shimmer factor up a botch with a blinged-out bag similar to Taylor’s from RSVP by Nykaa Fashion. Blue has been associated with wealth as it used to be a rare pigment (it’s called royal blue for this reason), and what’s better than wearing this shade than recreating a look seen on Bollywood royalty Alia Bhatt? From the plunging V neckline to the classy length, the RSVP gown is the perfect match for a similar look and will flatter your curves. For an additional touch of sophistication, pair it with the crystal hoop earrings that will also effortlessly complement any other outfit. For the cool girls who cannot go without an edgy touch to their outfits, pair the party-favourite shimmery LBD with denim jackets. The additional coverage will not only look chic but also help you stay warm if it’s cold outside. You can also add fur stockings to transition this look into the winter (a hack that works for all dresses). We recommend the cowl neck sequin dress from the luxury brand Label Ritu Kumar and the Vero Moda denim jacket – both highly rated by customers – to recreate this outfit seen on Kriti Sanon. From the corset-like feature in the torso to the cuts that add a lift to the bust, the Emblaze pink mini dress is what dreams are made for (at least when it comes to fitted dresses). The ‘Made In India’ brand has been spotted on many celebs, including Vidya Balan, Sanya Malhotra, and Malaika Arora. Similar to this outfit seen on Madison Beer, this dress is the best bet if you love a snug fit and especially to show off your legs. Complete the look with the highly-rated RSVP embellished stilettos that will make your toned legs look even better. We promised something for the minimalists and it doesn’t get better than this look seen on Priyanka Chopra. The silhouette and colour of the outfit exude old-money elegance, making it a must-have for cocktail hour and formal parties. Recreate the look with the Oh Rare dress, which features a similar cowl neck, ruched details, and side slit like PC’s outfit. Complete the look with the necklace from MNSH that can be personalised or a ‘princess’ letter chain. It’s your birthday, you deserve new shiny jewellery that reflects your personality. Spring/summer 2024 fashion trends say that bows are going to be everywhere this year and we’re here for it! People are tying bows to everything on social media (including toilet paper!) and many runway looks from high fashion brands have featured bows. If you want to cop this trend opt for this timeless mini skater dress that features bows in a subtle way and you can wear the dress even after the world (eventually) moves on from bows. Chokers are making a comeback and this 8 Other Reasons love heart choker will pair beautifully with the dress for a dark aesthetic look. You can also opt for playful accessories like a pink bowhairpin, heels with rhinestone bows, or bedazzled gloves for different looks. If you’re joining in on our celebration, of course, you’re getting return gifts! Avail free gifts on 100+ brands along with daily flash sales and offers throughout the Nykaa Birthday week. We’re also excited to offer deals on our Revolve store, which carries Gen-Z-approved brands that have been spotted on A-list celebs.
