What To Wear To Stay In
24 December 2025
Words by: Isla Philo. Design by: Melanie Makariou
There’s no FOMO here; in fact, we’re gearing up for the quieter side of the festive season and all the wrapped-up outfits that come with it. Once the parties and events are done, it’s time to hang up the sequins - until New Year's Eve at least - and celebrate the joy of staying in. The post-Christmas quiet is the time for you to enjoy some actual R+R, that doesn’t involve clearing up wrapping paper and topping up everyone else's drinks. So whether you’re curling up on the sofa, or blowing out the cobwebs with crisp country walks, it all starts with embracing comfy + cosy style solutions.
SPORTY SMART
Sporty smart: a ME+EM-specific term to describe the styles that epitomise our signature relaxed luxury, with a subtly athletic edge. It also happens to be the ultimate choice for hibernation dressing. They're put-together enough to pop out or answer the door, but comfortable enough for an afternoon of sofa lounging. For tracksuits with an elevated finish, look to luxe cashmere hoodie + wide-leg trouser pairings, or the super-soft cotton loopback of the High Neck Funnel Top + matching Track Pant. Or, for an extra sporty twist, the merino + cashmere Knit Bomber Jacket and Wide-Leg Trouser are trimmed with striped ribbed trims.
ICON PALAZZO
When it comes to merging comfort and considered style, the Palazzo Pant has remained at the top of the leaderboard for 10 years. And what better way to celebrate a decade of the iconicpair than by introducing a new shape and colour? This season they come crafted in the same super-soft modal jersey with the signature roll-top waistband, but now shaped with a wider leg that adds more of a statement look and the option of dressing them up. The Super Wide Palazzo comes in classic Black and Navy, plus a new Ganache Brown shade, which also has a matching long-sleeve top.
CHRISTMAS + BEYOND JUMPER
There’s something festive about a patterned jumper; it doesn’t have to have a reindeer or sparkly yarn to capture the seasonal mood. And if we’re thinking practically about wardrobe longevity, choosing something with a heritage feel is the perfect balance between festive in-the-moment and year-round wear. Speaking of heritage, argyle is one of our hero patterns this season, and we've combined it with the Shrunken Baby Tee silhouette to unite two icons in one. Knits like the Fair Isle Jumper bring intelligent design into the mix with an optional snood neckline, while the Relaxed Button Vest combines traditional patterns with one of our new-season knitwear silhouettes - a high neck and slightly cropped sleeves.
ELEVATED CASUAL
In the days between Christmas and New Year's, it's easy to lose track of the day of the week. But whether it's the Boxing Day Buffet or a second Christmas with extended family, there are always occasions that call for a more elevated outfit than loungewear, even if it is fresh out of the wrapping paper. When looking good and feeling comfortable are paramount, turn to Travel Tailoring. The latest additions to the capsule include mix-and-match pieces across tops, trousers in two lengths and dresses in different silhouettes so you can choose a custom combination. The genius of these pieces lies in the Tweed Jersey fabric, which combines the woven appearance and texture of tweed with the softness and undeniable comfort of jersey, complete with subtle metallic threading for an understated festive edge.
PERFECT PAIRINGS
Perfect pairings, by definition, are the styles we've designed to work flawlessly together, from initial sketch to final piece. Through clever colours, matching fabrics, or silhouettes that style as one, you get a complete look in half the time. Perfect pairings crafted from luxurious knits or super-soft layers make them ideal for at-home outfits with a lifted feel.
HYGGE HEROES
When it comes to enjoying time at home, take cues from the Danish sentiment of ‘hygge’. A rough translation means 'cosiness', but a broader, more accurate definition is the essence of living well: surrounding yourself with good people and things that bring you joy, which, in this instance, is knitwear. A chunky-knit cardigan is the ideal layer to add over loungewear for an intentional finish, especially cashmere styles like the Clever Seam Cardigan, which features an intelligently placed saddle seam over the shoulders to achieve the perfect just-oversized-enough shape. The jumper options are endless this season, ranging from bold stripes in Ganache Brown and Cobalt Blue to the autumnal colour-block capsule of mix-and-match merino-cashmere pieces, including a jumper, vest + snood, and a skirt, to build the right look for any at-home occasion.
COSY TOUCHES
For the days you have to venture out of the house, keep the wrapped-up energy with practical accessories, from cashmere triangle scarves that effortlessly drape over outerwear shoulders (or the matching jumper) to a co-ord beanie + scarf pairing.
