Time to trim the tree and dust off those sugar plums! The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes an overpacked schedule full of cookie decorating, white elephant swaps, and cocktail parties. While we can’t help with the itinerary, we can provide some guidelines surrounding the wardrobe component. Below, we’ve recreated three ensembles inspired by the Spring collections that fit the holiday dress code minus the gimmicky glitter tropes.

Silk Shirt + Lace-embellished Shorts + Plaid Blazer

Martine Rose

Who says boxers can’t look right at home at a holiday soiree? Take a note from Martine Rose’s styling expertise and pair it with a silky shirt and a nubby plaid blazer. The sheer knee-highs add an interesting finishing touch.

Houndstooth Wool Blazer

Marant Étoile
$695

Embellished Dress + Fur Jacket + Loafers

Celine

If there’s one thing Anthony Vacarello’s Celine has expertise in, it’s putting a youthful, girlish twist on feminine staples. In this look, they paired a slinky embellished skirt with a fur jacket and fair isle knit. But the real shake-up comes in the footwear: white socks and loafers.

Velvet Dress + Cardigan + Pumps

Prada

I love the immense contrast present in this look from Prada’s Spring 2024 collection. They played with some almost matronly elements in the silhouettes but rendered them in crushed velvet and embellishments. The stark white hue of the pumps throws the viewer off just the right amount.
