The holidays are fast approaching, which means it’s time to deck ourselves out in festive cheer! This Christmas, expect to see everything from cosy knits to glitzy partywear take centre stage in the fashion world. Whether you’re lounging around the house or attending a fancy Christmas soirée, there is a fabulous outfit out there with your name on it.
This year, Christmas jumpers are getting a stylish makeover that takes them from kitschy to chic. Rather than a novelty woolly covered in reindeer and snowflakes, look out for sleek cashmere knits in rich winter hues like crimson, emerald green and sapphire blue, adorned with subtle festive accents like delicate gold embroidery or crystal buttons. Elevated fabrics and refined details put a sophisticated spin on this Christmas classic.
Velvet is also having a major moment this holiday season. From posh party dresses to dapper blazers, crushed velvet in opulent colours like royal purple, midnight blue and burgundy red exudes luxury. Go full-on festive glamour by wearing head-to-toe velvet for a soirée – a metallic crushed mini dress paired with matching ankle boots makes a major style statement. Or, for a more low-key look, team a velvet top with dark wash skinny jeans.
Speaking of festive parties, sequins are an absolute must for your Christmas wardrobe. A little black dress becomes instantly celebratory when covered in shimmery star-like paillettes. Or turn heads in an equally show-stopping sequinned jumpsuit or mini skirt paired with a silky camisole – perfect for disco-ready holiday style. Just keep accessories pared back to let the sparkle take centre stage.
And we can’t talk Christmas fashion without mentioning the ultimate year-end showstopper accessory: faux fur. Cocoon yourself in major cosiness and elegance with a fluffy over-the-top collar in snowy white or dreamy oatmeal. Faux fur earmuffs and stoles also amp up seasonal style when you’re dashing through the snow. Just avoid wearing full faux fur looks unless you’re an aspiring Santa Claus – remember, subtlety is key.
So… don your best apparel this Christmas with the hottest trends of the season. Sleek knitwear, crushed velvet opulence, disco-ball sequins and fabulous faux fur make for merry, memorable and incredibly stylish holiday looks. Get ready to deck those halls and slay this festive season!
