There can be few items of clothing as fashion-backward as the Christmas jumper, the knitted equivalent of "Jingle Bells" sung badly by a Scout group in a provincial shopping centre. And yet, from the daft to the designer, we can't get enough of the sort of sweaters that earned a scornful diary entry from Bridget Jones (remember Colin Firth's reindeer?). nike high heels
Friday next week is Christmas Jumper Day, when Save the Children permits us to don seasonal kitsch in exchange for a donation to the charity, which also offers knitting patterns for DIY jumper fans (lock up your granny). The newsreader Jon Snow and the actress Ashley Jensen are among the campaign's celebrity recruits. cheap nike shox
But irony or charity isn't required for those seeking to channel Cliff Huxtable, of Cosby Show fame, or George Michael in Wham!'s "Last Christmas". Sarah Lund, The Killing's toasty television detective, is credited with popularising Faroese sweaters and their Scottish Fair Isle counterparts. In the age of novelty and nostalgia, it's perhaps a natural evolution for our knits to grow snowflakes and Santas. nike dunk sb
And so we have The Wanted, the boy band, frolicking around a tree in Esquire wearing a range of jumpers including Nathan's green wool reindeer print from Gant (£135). High-street and online stores have increased their range of festive sweaters this year at both ends of the market, and report snowballing sales as Britain freezes. At Asos, sales of novelty and Fair Isle styles have "exceeded expectations", increasing more than five times on last year, while Jeremy Langmead, editor-in-chief at Mr Porter, says the "rustic, retro charm" of sweaters there is boosting sales by similar amounts. Net-A-Porter has its own department for designer offerings including a bauble-covered red jumper by Meadham Kirchhoff for £945, a £396 white Moschino reindeer number, and a £355 top from Tibi that features a giant penguin. For a cheaper take on the trend, try Topman (£38). cheap nike dunks
An American trend for "ugly Christmas sweater parties", meanwhile, has taken off here, creating a market for presumably single-use jumpers. Matthew Lake, 21, a web entrepreneur from Shropshire, has already sold almost 1,000 sweaters since he launched the pleasingly lo-fi DaftChristmasJumpers.co.uk in October. He's struggling to meet demand for his range of almost 50 knits (top seller: a top that looks like a Santa jacket). His theory of the Christmas jumper's new popularity in times that are cold and bleak is simple: "They're just plain old good fun." nike dunk heels
The sound of jaws hitting the floor was deafening enough when Burberry launched its "warrior" bag back in 2008 for a mere £13,000 – and that was before the banks turned out to all be jipped. But, as George Osborne's mouth flapped open and closed, the latest piece of designer arm candy reached the ears of the Trending desk – not our arms, that's for sure.
The TV poppets turned (actually very credible) fashion designers Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have released an alligator backpack available from their label The Row. But this is no high-street collaboration: minimal yet luxurious, The Row is beloved of some of New York's richest women. And working with Damien Hirst – who has customised the bags with prescription pills and gold polka dots – the Olsens have come up with the ultimate back-candy for that demographic. For a mere £34,000. nike dunk high
Well, it's cheaper than a diamond-encrusted skull, isn't it?
Karl Lagerfeld seemed suitably at home in Scotland as he presided over Chanel's Metiers d'Art collection at Edinburgh's Linlithgow Palace, the ruined castle that was the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots.
Lagerfeld spoke fondly of Scotland after the show and said the collection was "a mix of Coco Chanel and Mary Queen of Scots" and represented "the rebirth of her spirit". The romantic setting was fitting for models who walked within the castle walls with high, bejewelled hair and clothes fit for a queen. Quintessential Chanel tweeds were softened with full-length lace skirts and layered under Argyle and tartan-patterned knitwear. Nike Dunks
This annual collection exhibits the fine craftsmanship of artisans under the Chanel umbrella, The most recent addition to this stable is Barrie Knitwear, the Scottish cashmere mill.
