Work Christmas Party Outfits

Tailored blazers, silk shirts, fine knitwear, and dress shoes for the work Christmas party, chosen from independent boutiques.

A work Christmas party outfit balances office tailoring with party textures like brushed alpaca, soft flannel and fine pleats. Ivory, green, blue and brown soften sharp suiting for an evening with colleagues. Tailored shapes keep it right for the office, and the textures make it feel festive.

Homme Plisse Issey Miyake, launched in twenty thirteen, pleats its jackets and trousers after they are sewn, so they resist wrinkles and dry quickly. UJOH, a Japanese label, was started by Mitsuru Nishizaki after years as a pattern maker. MM6 Maison Margiela is the second line of a Paris label known for exposed seams and oversized cuts.

Build the look around structured jackets, fine knitwear and pleated skirts with dark leather boots. WDLT117 in Toronto brings the tailored jackets, trousers and skirts, and Due West in Toronto brings wool sweaters from COOR and Les Deux.

Common questions

What makes a good work Christmas party outfit?
Pair a tailored wool blazer over a merino knit with pleated trousers or a sculpted skirt. Jewel tones like deep green and rich blue bring holiday mood to formal office suiting.
Which designers make work Christmas party outfits?
Homme Plisse Issey Miyake makes pleated jackets and trousers that resist wrinkles and dry quickly. UJOH, a Japanese label started by a former pattern maker, makes shirts and trousers, and MM6 Maison Margiela is the second line of a Paris label known for oversized cuts.
How do you style knitwear for a holiday office party?
Swap daylight cotton shirts for fine alpaca sweaters or structured jackets in rich flannel. Dark trousers anchor tactile knitwear so the overall look remains sharp for co workers.
