There’s no way. Year after year, most Brazilians choose white at the beginning of the year. But what is the origin of wearing white on New Year’s Eve? The tradition derives from the Umbanda and Candomblé rituals, in honor of Iemanjá, widespread especially in the 70s on the beaches, in the transition period from 31 December to 1 January. The habit spread throughout Brazil.
Furthermore, the meaning of white is peace and hope for the new year. Of course, there are other options, but if you like wearing white during the day, we’ve put together 17 celebrity looks that serve as inspiration for New Year’s Eve and many other occasions. Check it out and get ready for a 2025 full of positive energy.
Long white

Larissa Manoela, Isabella Fiorentino and Marina Ruy Barbosa prove that elongated white dresses are elegant and chic. Different cuts and details are welcome.
Long streaked whites

White dresses with a summer feel can be equipped with a bit of transparency, crochet or slits, giving a more casual and light air to the look, as Jade Picon, Mari Gonzalez and Sasha wore.
Short white dress

Short white dresses, like those of Tici Pinheiro, Sophie Charlotte and Adriane Galisteu, guarantee sophistication for New Year’s Eve, with asymmetries, draping and cutouts. On your feet you can play with colors, animal prints and even white boots.
Short, light whites

If you like something more informal, be inspired by the dresses worn by Bruna Marquezine and Camila Queiroz, with ruffles and frills. The models fit perfectly for our New Year’s Eve in the middle of summer.
Transparent white dress

Transparencies can be welcome on New Year’s Eve, depending on everyone’s style. Camila Queiroz and Yasmin were more explicit, because they wear short and long dresses. Wanessa opted for just a translucent shirt over a number with cutouts and a strapless neckline.
Relaxed tailoring

For those who can’t give up a dress, even if it’s a more relaxed party, an excellent option is to wear a suit with a looser fit. You can opt for a top underneath, as Beatriz Reis did, or simply a buttoned blazer, as worn by Sophie Charlotte and Lellê.
