‘Tis the season to wear festive jumpers and usually the uglier the better. It’s become a tradition to wear the ugliest or most coloquil Christmas sweater in many households as well as a growing fashion trend around the world.
In the olden days, mums and grannies would knit festive sweaters and pull overs to help their loved ones stay cosy all winter long. Many families would wear identical sweaters and pose for pictures to use as holiday cards sent to relatives and friends. There are also tons of sweaters being sold with funny sayings and memes for the season. Marks & Spencers jumped on the sweater wagon and has launched its own feel-good festive line to ensure warmth and smiles all around.
The collection features a range of witty jumpers for women, men and children alike such as the Let it Snow sweater for women adorned with pom-poms and that added stretch for extra comfort. There is also a Starry Night sweater which includes a lurex design for added sparkle and shine. Also, no Christmas or holiday is complete without the typical Reindeer jumper boasting glistening sequin snowflakes and colourful pom-poms. It willsurely provide merry cheer.
Children also have a light-hearted line including the Cotton Sequin Santa Print jumper, made from pure cotton knit, and the Embroidered Reindeer sweater with added stretch for a comfy fit.
Meanwhile, the festive favourites for men include the Forest & Sleigh design crew neck jumper featuring a winter forest scene across the front with Santa and his reindeer sleigh flying through the night sky. The Tiger with Hat design crew neck sweater is also a winner and according to designers is perfect for updating wardrobes with a stylish, holiday-inspired piece.
