Partygoers upped the dress code as 2008 came to a close. Here are pictorial highlights.

From left:

(1) Arielle Brown could be Jamaica's next top model. Pulse, are you looking? She was seen at Sonny Ranking's 16th anniversary Total Togetherness ball at Caribbean Showplace in Montego Bay on New Year's Eve.

(2) Samantha Zsuchner rocks this designer trench coat well at the Renaissance Christmas Eve All-White party.

(3) Jeremy Rickards and Ramona Sirju could just have been the cutest couple at Karma.

(4) Less is more for sure! Danielle Archer pierced hearts in her fuchsia mini with matching gold heels and clutch at the A-List party.

(5) Crooner Beres Hammond wasn't the only one that stole the show at the Moment in Time concert on December 28. Asha Edwards turned heads in this bejewelled dress that hugged the hips and flowed to the floor.

(6) Kyla Kerr's off-the-shoulder get-up was off the hook at the A-list party, held at the University of the West Indies' Senior Common Room on Thursday, December 25.

(7) Model Lisa Wilson can't resist the flashing lights as she strikes a classy pose.
