Sweden's H&M unveils opulent holiday 2025 partywear collection

Standout pieces include a black embellished velvet kimono-style jacket with matching trousers, a black open-back sleeveless satin top with velvet tie at the neck and sheer balloon trousers with velvet side panels, a range of decadent draped dresses and tops, and a sharp double-breasted black tuxedo with a black waterfall bandeau top.

“There’s a real party mood this holiday season, but in a more lavish, sensual way. Everything feels elevated – luxe fabrics like velvet, satin, faux fur and leather, elaborate draping, slim suits and hyper-textured knits. The look is powerful and exquisite at the same time. Each piece from the collection is worthy of a moment,” says Eliana Masgalos Duarte, Womenswear Design Director at H&M.

The colour palette is rich and restrained with black, white, grey, browns, burgundy and mossy greens. Textures are key, from luxe velvet, lurex and sequins in new techniques to faux fur, shearling, leather, and brushed knits, loop knits and tassels.

For accessories, faux fur reigns supreme, from bags and shoes to hats, while jewellery is big and bold.

For the Holiday 2025 menswear, there’s a similar confidence and opulence, though more relaxed in silhouette. Sartorial ease comes in the form of hairy textures, subtle sheen and velvet touch denim. Key pieces include a statement parka, a washed shearling jacket, cosy heritage knits and boxy pinstripe suits with drapey shirts. The blend of timeless craftsmanship and modern versatility makes the collection smart and stylish.
