Description
Bows, pastel styling and a Christmas tree. This is the coquette end of the Christmas jumper market, and it is a real market.
It is worth being clear that this is not an ugly Christmas jumper and is not trying to be. It is a seasonal sweatshirt designed to be genuinely nice to look at, which means it gets worn on ordinary December days as well as to the party — and that is a better return on twenty-three dollars than a costume you wear once.
Choose this if
- You want festive without novelty, and would rather not wear a joke
- Your December involves work, shops and family visits rather than one big night out
- You like the bow-heavy styling, which has become the dominant look in seasonal womenswear
Where it fails: any competition, any office that has genuinely committed to ugliness, and any party where the point is to look ridiculous. Taste is a liability in those rooms.
At $22.98 it is well priced. Expect a printed graphic on fleece — comfortable in a heated room and best kept out of a hot wash if you want it looking crisp next year.
For where this sits on the scale, read cute, ugly or classic, and how to style a Christmas jumper for wearing it outside December.
