7 celebrities who rocked (not so) ugly Christmas sweaters

In December 2021, David Beckham posed alongside his pop star-turned-designer wife, Victoria in a Christmassy sweater emblazoned with a massive snowflake motif and the Spice Girls’ Spice World logo. (He gets extra points here for paying tribute to his other half’s former band.) The football legend looked effortlessly polished by wearing the sweater over a classic shirt and tie.

Reese Witherspoon and her mini-me, Ava Phillippe, looked more like sisters than mother and daughter when they wore matching red lipstick and coordinating festive pullovers in December 2020. The stylish duo accessorised their holiday get-up with gold jewellery and warm drinks, of course.

Canadian actor Simu Liu posted this adorable festive snap with his girlfriend, Allison Hsu, when they attended the Violent Night premiere in Los Angeles in November 2022. For the occasion, the Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings star donned a pastel-coloured sweater featuring martini glass and yin-yang motifs. He wore it with a chunky timepiece and white jeans.

In January 2022, jokester Ryan Reynolds re-wore his famous ugly Christmas sweater for a campaign that helped raise over US$850,000 for the Sick Kids Foundation. Reynolds was first photographed wearing the eye-catching (to say the least) garment back in 2018, when Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal pulled a prank on him at a party.
