NoChristmas is that time of the year when everything revolves around the table, affection and – inevitably – the right look. Between toasts, courses that follow one another and ritual photos, the question comes back promptly: how to dress for the Christmas lunch without seeming too formal or excessively casual? In 2025 the answer goes through balanced outfits, capable of combining elegance, comfort and a pinch of personality, to feel impeccable from appetizer to dessert. Here are five ideas trendy to be inspired by.
Tweed jacket and tailored trousers
The lively tweed jacket is suitable for a semi-formal Christmas lunch with relatives and is perfect for the guest as well as the hostess.
Tartan passion
There is no fabric more festive than the checked pattern: a trendy kilt or dress version, Christmas tartan is the perfect solution for a cozy chic gathering.
Exposed lingerie
A satin top, dress or slip skirt with lace details are a sensual and festive touch to be experimented with even on a daily basis.
Contrasting blazer and midi skirt
Formal Christmas lunch, at your in-laws’ house or in an exceptional location? The combo that is elegant without exaggeration, the one composed of the tailored jacket and the contrasting midi skirt.
Red accessories
Red socks and an important coat, to be noticed when you arrive at the restaurant.
