Valentine’s Day is one of those moments on the calendar where getting dressed feels different. It’s not about trends or dressing for anyone else—it’s about how you want to feel. Confident. Polished. A little bold. A little romantic.

That’s exactly where the Glam & Glitz collection by Shahida Parides fits in.

This collection isn’t about everyday basics or casual dressing. It’s designed for evenings, celebrations, and moments when you want your outfit to make an entrance. With shimmering metallic fabrics, sequins that catch the light, and silhouettes made to move beautifully, Glam & Glitz feels tailor-made for Valentine’s Day.

Whether you’re planning a candlelit dinner, a glamorous night out, or a relaxed but elevated celebration, this style guide walks you through how to choose and style pieces from the Glam & Glitz collection for Valentine’s Day—using only what the collection already offers.

Start With the Mood of Your Valentine’s Day

Before choosing an outfit, think about the kind of Valentine’s Day you’re having. The Glam & Glitz collection works because it offers variety within the same glamorous mood.

Ask yourself:

• Is this a formal evening or an intimate dinner?

• Are you dressing for nighttime glamour or a more relaxed celebration?

• Do you want to feel bold and statement-making or soft and elegant?

Once you know the vibe, choosing the right piece becomes much easier.

For a Classic Romantic Evening: Sequin Dresses

If your Valentine’s Day plans include dinner, cocktails, or an evening event, a sequin dress from the Glam & Glitz collection is the most natural choice.

These pieces are designed to shine—literally. The sequins reflect light in a way that feels celebratory without needing excessive styling. For Valentine’s Day, that works beautifully because the outfit already carries the mood of the occasion.

This is the kind of look that feels effortless but intentional. You don’t need layers or bold jewelry—the dress does the work for you.

For a Relaxed but Luxe Valentine’s Day: Kaftans

Not every Valentine’s Day plan calls for a fitted dress. If you’re celebrating during the day, traveling, or keeping things intimate and relaxed, the kaftans in the Glam & Glitz collection offer a perfect alternative.

These kaftans still carry shimmer and elegance, but with a looser, more fluid silhouette. They feel luxurious without being restrictive, making them ideal for daytime celebrations or destination-style plans.

For Maximum Impact: Metallic Maxi Dresses

Metallic fabrics are one of the strongest elements of the Glam & Glitz collection, and they’re ideal for Valentine’s Day when you want something dramatic yet elegant.

A metallic maxi dress gives you length, movement, and shine—all in one piece. It feels elevated without being stiff, which makes it perfect for long evenings where you want to look good and feel comfortable.

The fluid silhouettes in the collection allow the fabric to move naturally, creating a graceful, confident look.

How to style it:

• Neutral or metallic shoes keep the look cohesive

• Soft makeup balances the shine of the fabric

• Skip heavy layering—let the dress flow

This look is especially effective if you want to stand out without wearing sequins.

If You Prefer Timeless Glamour: Black & Neutral Pieces

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to mean bright colors. The Glam & Glitz collection shows how black and neutral tones can feel just as romantic when paired with shine and texture.

Sequins and metallic finishes elevate these shades, making them perfect for women who prefer classic elegance over bold color.

How to style it:

• Keep the look sleek and streamlined

• Use subtle metallic accessories

• Let texture replace color for interest

These pieces are especially versatile if your plans change from dinner to late-night celebrations.
