Christmas Day Styling

Gifts are bought and wrapped, cupboards are bursting with mince pies and the tree is up. Now to choose what you're going to wear on the big day! Whether you'll be dressed up for Christmas lunch out, looking chic for a day spent with friends, or need to be comfortable enough for cooking at home with the family, we have a solution for every setting and occasion in our edit of Christmas Day looks.

OUT FOR LUNCH

If you prefer to leave the hard work to someone else on Christmas Day and are venturing out for lunch, one of our velvet dresses will make for the ultimate in Christmas elegance. Embracing winter's jewel toned colour palette, choose from a rich forest green or always-chic, navy. Style with gold accessories for the ultimate Christmas Day look.

CELEBRATING WITH FRIENDS

If you're heading to friends or relatives houses and want to look polished and pulled together but still comfortable and relaxed, our hero Daphne dress will tick all the boxes. A joy to wear thanks to the soft cotton corduroy, elasticated back and easy fit through the hips, Daphne will infuse some colour into your Christmas Day look paired with a slender heeled boot and gold jewellery for elegance. For an evening get-together, add a cashmere sleeveless knit to keep warm without hiding Daphne's pretty sleeve.

If you're a fan of a skirt and top combo, our Daphne skirt features the same pretty peplum silhouette as the dress, and pairs perfectly with a chunky cashmere knit and boots for a relaxed day with loved ones.

RELAXED DAY AT HOME

If you like making an effort on Christmas Day but will be spending the day at home putting batteries in the children's new toys, collecting wrapping paper and cooking lunch for the family, our cotton Marianne dress is pared back and comfortable yet special all at once. Featuring a beautiful Bramble print, the soft machine washable cotton voile and elasticated waist make it comfortable enough to move around in for a non-stop day.
Alternatively for a cosy day spent at home with family, pull on our knitted Eva dress. Effortless and minimal, but elevated thanks to its sculptural sleeve, we’ve spent hours on the cut on this dress over the years, ensuring the fit is perfect and with its full rib, it’s as comfortable as it is stylish. Plus it’s also surprisingly practical, being machine-washable for any spillages during the day!

HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTESS

Playing host to family and friends this Christmas? Opt for a stylish yet practical and comfortable look that you'll feel great in from opening presents in the morning to clearing plates away at the end of the day. Our silk Stella dress fits this bill perfectly, combining luxe feminine detailing (like pretty rouleau buttons and delicate eyelash frill edging) with easy wearability thanks to the drawstring waist that can be cinched-in or worn loose.
For a timeless Christmas choice with a sprinkling of fun, pair a sequin skirt with a cosy cashmere knit for chic sophistication.

STAYCATION STYLE

Spending Christmas by the idyllic Cornish coastline or in the Welsh countryside? Stay warm and practical on the big day with a merino knit and corduroy trousers. Comfortable and warm enough for a Christmas Day walk yet still chic and stylish, our Tatum corduroy and velvet trousers pair perfectly with anything from a slender mule to a chunky boot or trainers and will work with an array of our Winter 24 collection tops, from lurex and cashmere to silk shirts and sequins. For smarter evening events, pair with the matching corduroy Leo or velvet Jamie blazer to add elegance and stay warm.
