The best outfits to wear on Christmas Day
Planning the perfect Christmas day outfit can be tricky at the best of times, but dress codes are even more confusing in 2021. For most of us, 25 December looks very different: while some are unwrapping presents in pajamas, others will be lunching with family. The select few who usually fly abroad or get glammed up for parties might be prepping lower-key events at home instead, given the current climate.
Smart shoppers will invest in hardworking pieces — co-ords are always a clever buy — that can be dressed up and down to suit every festive situation. But, then again, this day only comes once a year; so we’ve included a few statements looks that will serve you for many a Christmas to come. If you’re on the relaxed end of the scale, you can still dress for the occasion: luxe loungewear is such a treat and great for gifting, too.
Whether you’re ready to embrace a festive ensemble, looking for something more versatile to work all winter, or just want pajamas you’re happy to be photographed in, we’ve rounded up 10 of the best Christmas Day outfits right here.
