Christmas Jumper Day: the best styles to don this festive season

By Megan Murray

6 years ago

It’s Christmas Jumper Day, so here’s our edit of the very best this year, from designer favourites to high street must-buys. 

December is here, the temperature has dropped and the radio is churning out Christmas tunes exclusively – it’s Christmas jumper time. But if you needed another excuse to get your festive jumper on: today (13 December) is Christmas Jumper Day 2019. 

From stylish, cosy knits that you can’t wait to pair with an over-sized scarf and that coat you snagged in the Black Friday sales, to the novelty number you’re planning on donning to the office, we’ve got them all.

You won’t find any woolly fails here, and especially no Mark Darcy-esque reindeer motifs or crass Christmas catch-phrases. Instead, we’ve looked to some of our favourite designers and high street stores for chic but snuggly jumpers and knitwear to keep you looking your best through the colder months, bringing you the absolute best Christmas jumpers for 2019.

Whether you’re a fan of a Fair Isle print (there’s lots of those) or a bit of sparkle, we’ve consulted brands from Stine Goya to Calvin Klein to ensure there’s something to keep you cosy until Christmas.

Lizzo's 100% that Christmas bitch jumper

Featuring everyone’s favourite singer, whose lyrics speak to the mood of 2019, this epic jumper is emblazoned with the words “100% that Christmas bitch.” 

We think Lizzo would approve. And we think she’d approve of the fact that customers can choose to donate 10% from every purchase to a charity of their choice.

Flea-bahum-bag Christmas Jumper

Our obsession with Fleabag has reached festive heights thanks to this brilliant Christmas jumper. This limited edition knit has been created in conjunction with Not Just Clothing, who will donate a minimum of £50,000 to Save the Children through the sales of its limited-edition Christmas Jumper Day range, helping raise funds for Christmas Jumper Day which is on Friday 13 December this year. Oh, and there’s a fox on the back. It doesn’t get better.

Orange fair isle jumper, Lowie

Lowie only uses the finest soft wools, luxurious organic cottons and hand woven fabrics to create its heritage-inspired knits, so it’s no wonder that it makes the snuggliest Christmas jumpers.
