‘Tis fast approaching the season of sitting in front of your computer on a video call wearing nothing but a Christmas Jumper. Some of us might not be commuting to work as much these days, but there’s still no excuse not to terrify your work colleagues with your taste in garish clothing over the next couple of months.
The Christmas Jumper is increasingly a staple of museum shops, so a look around finds the following “delights” from London venues.
