A look to match your plans, from a night in to a night out.
When it comes to New Year’s Eve, there are so many different ways to celebrate. Whether your plans include watching the ball drop on TV or going out for a night on the town, you’ll want to dress accordingly. Keep scrolling for four festive men’s New Year’s Eve outfits, from ultra-casual to dressed up.
Staying in
If you’re planning a low-key evening at home to ring in the new year, make sure you’ve got cozy clothes that’ll keep you as comfortable as possible. A few of our picks? Soft sweatpants, a waffle-knit thermal, and—of course—slippers. For extra warmth while lounging or even running out to grab a bottle of champagne, a pullover and a beanie are go-to options.
Dinner party
Headed to dinner at a friend’s house? A modern, semi-formal New Year’s Eve outfit is a great choice. Try a crewneck sweater with a graphic stripe pattern and a pair of comfortable jeans. For the finishing touches, opt for clean white sneakers and a contemporary bomber jacket in a warm fabric like wool.
Formal event
With so many ways to celebrate the new year, a more formal event is an elevated choice. Before choosing your outfit, check the invitation for a dress code. You can’t go wrong with an elegant dressed-up look that incorporates a dress shirt and dinner jacket. Add a pair of slim-fit pants and a tie in a refined fabric like silk. Add the perfect amount of polish with sleek oxfords and a wool topcoat in a neutral hue.
A night out
If your New Year’s plan involves going out, who knows where the night might take you. An outfit that’s dressed up yet has a little extra flair for the holiday season is a festive choice. Start with a button-down in a stretch fabric, featuring a classic pattern like plaid. Create a rich mix of textures by choosing velveteen trousers, a coordinating silk tie, and a pair of suede shoes. And for just a touch of edge, throw on a leather jacket.
No matter how you celebrate New Year’s Eve, we’re here to help you pick an outfit you’ll love.
