Christmas Outfits – What We’re Wearing This Christmas 2022
Christmas is just around the corner and it’s time to get dressed to impress. But what colors and trends are hot this year?
This Christmas, two worlds collide: glitz and glamour on one side, timeless elegance on the other – and both have their place.
- Vibrant or classic: Winter 2022 offers two clear directions – either go all out with red, sequins, and glitter, or opt for timeless colors like beige, white, and black.
- Silk and bouclé dominate: These are the materials of choice for this season. A detail in glitter or rhinestones gives a piece a festive character.
- Cozy is also an option: For a relaxed holiday look, opt for a cozy Christmas look: a loose-fitting cardigan or sweater, wide-leg pants, and natural makeup. Simple, yet deliberate.

Vibrant: Red, Glitter, and Sequins
This year’s little black dress can take a break. The clear direction of the season: color and shine. If you want to sparkle at Christmas, opt for deep red – as a dress, blazer, or accessory. For those who find a full red outfit too much, mixing works: a red blazer over a light-colored dress is enough to set the mood.
Sequins, rhinestones, and glitter are not an exaggeration this winter, but the expected language of the season. Silk and bouclé catch light and amplify the effect – skirts and dresses made from these materials with a small glitter detail get the festive touch without being overpowering.
Christmas 2022 can shine – or deliberately remain subdued. Both are a choice, not an embarrassment.
Natural: Beige, Cozy, and Honest Elegance
The other side of the season is no less considered. Timeless colors like beige, white, and black stand for understated elegance – and that’s just as suitable for a Christmas evening with close friends as it is for a formal dinner.
The cozy Christmas look is for those who want to spend the holidays relaxed: a loose sweater or cardigan combined with wide trousers, a simple blouse or a light T-shirt as a base. If you need some color, add it with accessories. Natural makeup with nude tones completes the look without drawing attention away from it.
Your Choice
Neither glitter nor cozy is the wrong choice. The decision depends on where you’ll be this Christmas and with whom. For the big party: silk, sequins, red. For a quiet evening at home: cashmere, wide pants, soft lighting. Both looks carry the mood of the season – just in different ways.
