The holidays are coming! And, that can only mean one thing: super bedazzled, loud, and maybe not so aesthetically pleasing festive sweaters. Not this year. Bid bye-bye to lacklustre embellishments, day-glo colour combos, and boring illustrations. And, say hello to bright hues, fair isle knits, and just the right amount of sparkle.
This not-entirely-ironic tradition has gotten a fashion makeover for the ages — and not a moment too soon. Ahead, the 17 holiday styles you’ll wear all season long. And there’s not a single Santa sweater in sight.
