Outfit Inspiration for the Holidays

Saint Nicholas has barely sailed out of the country and shop windows are already decked out for Christmas. The Christmas tree is proudly displayed in your living room, the first Christmas cards have been sent, and your holiday gifts for family and friends are ordered. The only thing missing is a beautiful outfit for the festive season. Feeling stuck and in need of some outfit inspiration for the holidays? Let our 5 outfit ideas inspire you and get ready for an elegant family dinner or a cosy Christmas dinner for two!

Outfit 1: A Velvet Tuxedo

Planning a romantic weekend getaway with your loved one and want to look sharp at the Christmas dinner? Opt for a velvet tuxedo jacket for a statement look. Velvet gives any outfit a luxurious feel and is the menswear item for a festive evening out. Since velvet is quite a delicate fabric, we advise against a velvet pair of trousers. No greasy turkey stains on your dress trousers! Pair the striking velvet jacket with a solid black pair of trousers. This way you'll appear as a true gentleman!

Outfit 2: A Mix and Match Look

Can't decide on just one outfit? Then a mix and match look is perfect for you! Go for a crispy white shirt and pair it with a black or royal blue blazer. Add a stylish black or blue pair of trousers to complete the look. With an elegant bow tie, you'll add extra sophistication to your Christmas outfit. With this mix and match look, you'll be impeccably dressed for the Christmas gala.

Outfit 3: A Complete Tuxedo or Suit

Is there an elegant dress code planned? Then pull out all the stops and choose a classic tuxedo. A black or midnight blue tuxedo with a cummerbund around the waist. Make sure that for black tie tuxedo you choose a crispy white shirt with concealed buttons. Is a black tie tuxedo a bit too much for you, but you still want to look sharp? What about a beautiful Christmas green linen suit? This tailored suit is wonderfully light to wear. Another advantage: the suit doesn't wrinkle, since it's not real linen. With a pair of leather dress shoes, you'll be party ready!

Outfit 4: A Comfy Chic Look – Smart Jumper with Chinos or Smart Joggers

Want to sit comfortably at the Christmas table this year? Then forget the tuxedo and settle down with a comfy chic look. For this dress code, choose a smart pullover with chinos or smart joggers. During the holidays, jeans are less appropriate. Your casual chic outfit should lean more towards chic than casual during Christmas. Would you prefer not to wear trousers? Then check out our complete range of chinos. Does the thought of a jumper already make you feel warm and itchy? Then a shirt with a festive print is a great alternative!

Has your girlfriend organised a tacky Christmas party? Then of course you can't miss a tacky Christmas jumper. Make an impression at the office Christmas drinks or at the dinner table with this fantastic tacky Christmas jumper with LED lights for a sparkling look. Complete the outfit with a smart blue pair of chinos. Let the Christmas music play! The GENTS team wishes everyone wonderful holidays!
