Ugly Christmas Jumper
Still not joined the ugly Christmas jumper trend?
The ugly Christmas jumper trend isn’t as modern as you think
The Ugly Christmas jumper trend started in the 1980s in the United States, but it was during the 2000s that it really caught on and spread to countries like Canada, Australia and, particularly, Ireland and the United Kingdom.
In reality, the Ugly Christmas Jumper is just a name for fun and quirky Christmas jumpers. These designs leave aside the more classic Christmas patterns of reindeers, Santa Claus and Christmas trees for more eye-catching and colourful motifs.
If you’ve made it this far but aren’t looking to steal the limelight on Christmas Day with our ugly Christmas jumpers, we also have more "regular” collections for you to check out.

Ugly Christmas jumpers — in a classic or modern design. Why choose?
Ugly Christmas jumper styles have varied over the years. But one thing for certain is that, whether they’re more classic or more modern designs, they’re all equally fun. Still, there are some subtle differences.
The more traditional ugly Christmas jumper designs have classic Christmas patterns like reindeers, snowmen or Christmas trees. A great example of a classic ugly Christmas jumper is the one worn by Colin Firth in the movie Bridget Jones’s Diary’ (2001). In fact, thanks to the popularity of the film, the Christmas jumper trend spread all over the world.
On the other hand, ugly Christmas jumpers in a more modern style are often based on characters from the most popular films, series or video games of the moment. This is especially appealing to the youngest members of the household. Well, the not so little ones like them a lot too...
Our recommendation? Choose the ugly Christmas jumper you like the most. There are almost 80 different models in this collection, so we’re sure you’ll find the one that suits your style.
