Bust out the sweaters, press play on Mariah Carey’s cosmic hit, and get to gift-wrapping that long list of presents you’ve already acquired for the weekend. The festive season is undeniably in our midst and granted, some of us may even have had our holiday parties begin a tad earlier. Be it hosted at home or ported to more wintry shores abroad, the merry, infectious mood is at the forefront of everyone’s minds—all thoughts of the year’s never-ending grind happily thrown out the window.
Our social media feeds will tell us this as much. As the year-end truly settles in, a certain sentiment of unbridled joy seems to have taken its place—a simple scroll giving way to vibrant snaps of exuberant parties and intimate get-togethers plastered everywhere. The lot emulating this mood best? Our favourite celebrity faces, who undoubtedly have nailed the holiday dress code, with many of them decked out in their ultimate festive-inspired ensembles for their various appointments.
Some, like the girls of K-pop groups IVE and NewJeans, have weaved in the scarlet hue of the season into their merry little outfits consisting of mini skirts and cosy sweater variations. Whilst others may have volumed-up their looks with a more practical statement coat meant to keep them warm in the cold climate—think Dua Lipa or Kendall Jenner, the latter recently spotted in a chocolate-hued Phoebe Philo pick for a dinner with friends in Aspen, Colorado. Going with a little more bling and drama? The pop queen, Beyoncé herself, who went with a disco-ready pair of hotpants from Prada, paired with a cream-white faux fur jacket and nude pumps. The overall takeaway? You don’t necessarily need a grandiose party number to look your best during the holidays.
So if you’re still planning your outfits for that upcoming gathering, take your cues from these festive-ready celebrities—who are coming out on top for cosy holiday dressing this season.
