You might have heard of FOMO, (fear of missing out) but we’re proposing a new idea, celebrating the joy of staying in.
After all the excitement in the lead up to and the aftermath of the festive period, social batteries can feel depleted, so use the blurry days between Christmas and New Year to enter hibernation mode, ready to welcome the new year with fresh energy.
We’ve put together some key styles that span the cosy spectrum and put an elevated spin on indoor dressing. Perfect for the days when you’ll enjoy mostly doing nothing, but might have to head out for an errand or walk the dog.
When you want the comfort of pyjamas, with the put-together look of a matching set, look to our Milano-knit co-ords. This Side Stripe Sweater + Pant Co-ord is made from a blend of organic cotton and wool, knitted in a half Milano stitch that has an ultra-soft handfeel yet gives the fabric a compact, streamlined structure.
The high-neck sweater features a half-zip neckline and the pants are shaped to a flattering wide-leg fit, and each piece features a multicolored side stripe that’s color-matched to other shades throughout the collection for easy styling.
Getting dressed to stay in doesn’t mean you can’t look put together. Another Milano knit co-ord option, this time in a jacket + skirt combo, is perfect for days at home when you run the risk of last-minute or unexpected festive drop ins.
The organic and cotton-blend is knitted in a half Milano stitch for a streamlined, softly structured shape that complements the minimal cut of the point-collar jacket and A-line skirt, while the choice of black or cream across both pieces allows for the choice of a tonal or a mix-and-match monochrome look.
We’re all about styles that go far in your wardrobe, so this season we've created our Christmas-ish sweater that captures the festive mood, but isn’t limited to only wearing during December.
Made from an ultra-soft blend of alpaca and cotton, our jacquard sweater comes in cream or olive with chunky ribbed trims around the crew neck, hem and cuffs. The Fair Isle jacquard motif across the chest is rendered in collection color-matched shades so it styles effortlessly with your pick of items.

There’s nothing like a matching set to tick the boxes of elevated and casual at once. Luckily, we specialise in them. Our signature Travel Tailoring Collection is dedicated to easy wearing and flattering mix pieces designed for wearing on the go, or on days when you’re enjoying a standstill.
The graphic jacquard co-ord set consists of different shapes for the top, depending on your fit preference. The Swing Top features puffed shoulders, balloon sleeves and a frill-trimmed neckline for a more feminine look, while the Box Top follows a more clean-lined, minimal shape with a smart point collar and zip neckline. Both styles pair effortlessly with the Jacquard Trouser, cut to a wide-leg fit with a minimal waistband.
A different take on our usual co-ord, but just as home (or out + about) friendly, are our cardigan and vest twin sets made from luxurious cashmere. Available in charcoal grey mélange or pink, the pairing includes a classic crew-neck cardigan designed to seamlessly layer over the matching vest top. The perfect way to elevate an off-duty look.
Halve the time it takes to choose an outfit by opting for a single item that delivers an entire look. You might not immediately think of dresses or jumpsuits when you’re spending time at home, but these two styles are the epitome of put-together ease.
A cold weather take on our signature mixed-media styles, this Sweatshirt Dress is made from an organic-cotton jersey across the top half and sateen-woven viscose across the skirt. It’s shaped to a relaxed fit with a subtle dose of intelligent design in the form of a dropped waist and slip pockets.
Look to our Luxe Lounge Jumpsuit for the ultimate curl-up-and-get-cozy option. Aptly named after its snuggly mid-weight cotton fabric, this style has all the coziness of loungewear while retaining a polished look. Adjust the final look with the zipped neckline and drawstring waist.
When it comes to enjoying time at home, take cues from the Danish sentiment of ‘hygge’. A rough translation means cosiness, but a broader and more accurate definition ascribes the essence of living well, surrounding yourself with good people and things that bring you joy. So, investing in warming, well-made knitwear that makes you happy every time time you wrap up, fits the bill.
The at-home favourite hoodie gets an upgrade this season with a pop of color and a luxurious fabrication. Our sapphire-blue curved-hem hoodie is made from luxurious cashmere with a generously sized hood and drawstring ties. The curved hem means it's slightly longer at the back for a flattering drape and added coverage.
Another cosy option, the Lofty Merino Cashmere Silk Sweater + Snood offers the warmth and breathable qualities of natural fibres, with the added benefit of a detachable snood neckline. Raglan shoulder seams enhance the relaxed fit, while the choice of deep autumn olive or cream allows for easy neutral styling.
While we’re spoilt for choice when it comes to top-half styles that balance comfort and a put-together edge, it can be harder to find trousers that match the laid-back mood.
Blurring the lines between track pant and tailoring, this Textured Tailoring Wide-Leg pair is made from a fluid fabric that falls with a natural, flattering drape. The drawstring elasticated waistband meets the comfort requirements, while tonal side stripes add a considered touch.
For another sporty-smart choice that effortlessly unites casual and elevated codes, look to our signature side-stripe track pant in a brooding black and deep autumn olive palette for a darker edge. Customise the final leg shape with the press-studs running down the side.
