Fashionably Festive

A Men’s Style Guide for Holiday Occasions

Snow is officially on the ground, which means we’re no longer dressing for Fall, gentlemen. It’s time to embrace the festivities and give the merino wool turtleneck you’ve been ignoring some love. Holiday fashion can be a challenge; we must balance warmth with style and kitsch with class—“oh, what fun it is” to don your quirky Fairisle sweater at the office, but to what end? Knowing how to dress for every occasion is vital, and this season, we’re in favour of some elevation.

A Drink with your CEO or Colleagues

Trying to get that promotion? A confident look is the way to go. Pair a turtleneck with a pair of trousers and dress shoes. Try adding a pop of colour; a bold pair of trousers with an understated shirt and tie.

A Winter Wonderland-Inspired Date

Taking in Candy Cane Lane before heading to dinner? Grab a chic hoodie and a sleek tweed jacket. Or perhaps now is the time for that turtleneck your partner bought you (that you still haven’t worn), pop it on with a puffer jacket and matching scarf.

A Semi-Formal Holiday Party

Leave your piano key tie at home, gents. Try a black suit with a subtle pattern in a monochromatic look in dark shades. Or perhaps your navy suit with a crisp white shirt and matching bowtie? Don’t be afraid to play with tone-on-tone or challenge the rules by wearing black and navy together.
