In my opinion, there\u2019s a fine line for corporate work out of office event outfits, so here\u2019s a selection of fashionable and festive, yet elegant and timeless, pieces to wear for your festive dinner and beyond.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SELF-PORTRAIT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Created in 2013 by Malaysian-born and Central-Saint-Martins-educated designer <strong>Han Chong<\/strong>, Self Portrait intwines elegance with femininity in a fashionable yet timeless way. The flagship store on Albermarle Street is a cute hidden gem, designed with Casper Mueller Knew Architects to create a modern luxurious feel; I\u2019d recommend visiting to truly bring the brand to life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Han Chong has a strong desire to support future generations of creative talent and this is highlighted through the scholarship program he launched in 2018 with Central Saint Martins to support 5 students to complete their MA degree.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>DRESSES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"shopthepost-widget\" data-widget-id=\"4901817\">\r\n                <script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n                    !function(d,s,id){\r\n                        var e, p = \/^http:\/.test(d.location) ?
