definitely number 2! you look adorable, and it screams new years to me.
I love #5, but #2 is just stellar on you!
I'm loving both #3 and #5... I just can't help but love that super flouncy skirt!
I love #4 and then #3. I love the skirts. I would go with a dark shoe and a fun necklace.
I voted for 3, but honestly 3 - 5 are all awesome.
I like 4, and also 2.
I voted four but I also like 1 and 2.
I am a sucker for Hayden Harnett, but I actually really like the good vs. evil looks as well. Maybe you could save them for a Halloween party and go as the Black Swan ballerina, changing halfway through the night? And with the HH dress, I'd go with some shoulder duster earrings. Enjoy!
Eek, it's a draw for me between 2 and 5.
I'd go for #2. It's not that over-rated, it looks elegant too.

Like many of the other comments here, I like the look of nos. 2 and 5, though may I suggest belting number 5 with a sequin cummerbund or some kind of sparkly belt? I think it would really show off your figure.
I love #5 - it's so sleek with enough sparkle to make it NYE worthy!
I picked 4 as my vote. I love the dark dress against the lighter tights. But I also loved the last dress, that colour is beautiful against your hair!
Have fun at your party!
I think 2 is the most flattering on you as well as the most formal, but maybe with some colored tights to make it more fun.
What is the most comfortable?
#2 and #5 are just fine, but #2 wins because of silhouette. I may be wrong, but I feel like the Hayden Harnett dress could be a bit smaller, to fit better. Otherwise it's perfect new year eve dress!
2 or 5, but with a big deep-coloured jewel somewhere!
I love the sparkliness of #5 (always good for New Years parties), and #2 is awesome, though I might choose colored tights to go with it too.
There all very cute but #2 looks like a New Years Dress to me ~Happy New Year ~Heather :)
I said 4 because you said fancy cocktail party. Black is always a good bet for cocktail, but the full, fun skirt makes it fancy and different. And the neckline lets a piece of jewelry shine.
They are all great - but I would probably not choose 6 for this event. It just doesn't fit the bill.

well well well...looks like i'm the loser of the voting population. i'm loving #6--roll up the cardigan's sleeves a little, throw on a pearl necklace (or 3), and lighten up the legs/shoes. a little vintage, a little modern, a lot classy.
that being said, you're going to look beautiful no matter what--great options!
