Dressing For Christmas: The Art Of Seasonal Style

Dressing For Christmas: The Art Of Seasonal Style

The festive season is a time for twinkling lights, just one more mince pie, and that one relative who always takes charades far too seriously. But while the holiday spirit thrives on a little chaos, your wardrobe doesn’t have to. This Christmas, let Favourbrook’s velvet coats, blazers, and silk dresses take the stress out of dressing, leaving you to focus on more important things (like entertaining your guests or drinking port while your other half takes care of lunch).


Velvet is the ultimate festive fabric - sumptuous, tactile, and unapologetically indulgent. A velvet blazer brings just the right amount of drama to a pre-Christmas dinner or Boxing Day drink with friends, paired with cropped tailored trousers for a chic party ensemble. Meanwhile, a long velvet coat offers both glamour and practicality, perfect for sweeping into the room like the protagonist of your very own Christmas rom-com. Festive tones such as forest green and cherry red work perfectly, but be mindful of wearing them together, lest you want to look like a holly bush.


Silk dresses, with their fluid elegance and jewel-tone palettes, complete the picture. From understated midi lengths to show-stopping gowns, they’re designed to move effortlessly between champagne toasts and dance floor twirls. This season, Favourbrook’s collection is your secret to festive dressing with personality, because who says Christmas can’t be stylish and fun?
