From bow adorned Christmas trees to strings of ribbon tied garlands, it’s official, we’ve gone certifiably bow crazy this festive season. Yet, while the statement knots have undoubtedly refreshed our Christmas decorations in record speed, it appears the trend isn’t content with just taking over our homes this party season as even our wardrobes are set to get a gift-wrap inspired makeover.
From statement bow party dresses to bow tops and camis, both luxury designers and the high street are filled with their take on the trend. London-based label Marques Almeida proved more is more with their oversize bow top that can be effortlessly styled with your favourite jeans. My personal favourite has to be H&M’s bow front take on the little black dress – perfect if you’re looking for a statement piece to wear on Christmas day or throughout the festive season.
And, it’s not just scene stealing supersized bows that are making an appearance (although there are plenty of those, if you want to go big). Bow button cardigans and blazers are the perfect way to subtly nod to the trend or, why not switch your classic black heels for a bow detail pair that you can get maximum wear from at all your festive events.
Not heading out? Don’t worry I wouldn’t blame you either. If you’re someone who prefers to cosy up on the sofa sipping hot chocolate during the holidays, why not ditch party wear altogether and try a pair of bow printed pyjamas. Next’s red and pink striped pair may be the cutest I’ve seen and you’ll look practically perfect sitting next to your bow themed tree.
