Available from riverisland.com, the collection is all about power pieces, ranging from floor length dresses to a top designed in the shape of a bow.

Just in time for the party season, you’ll be able to accessorise your evening wear with bags and shoes also from the collection.

Prices range from £30 for a small cross body bag up to £300 for a maxi evening gown.

But if you’re not an outfit repeater when it comes to evening dos and you’d rather not hold on to your party piece post event, then it’s well worth renting these glamorous gowns through River Island’s newest collaboration with Hirestreet.

Tackling fast fashion and reducing waste, this partnership is all about sustainability, eco-consciousness and being mindful of our own consumption.
