Olly's Picks

Christmas time is always a big deal here at Oliver Bonas. We’re unapologetically excited about filling the stores with dazzling decorations and glittering partywear, and bringing seasonal show-stoppers to our online Christmas Shop. As ever we asked Olly to pick out his festive favourites, and this year’s selection is a feel-good feast of distinctive Christmas gift ideas and characterful Christmas Home Accessories; look-at-me layers and standout style.

With party season officially upon us, Olly has picked out our Black Organza Wavy Mini Dress with its puffed sleeves and punchy metallic pink, green and blue woven pattern. The energetic colour pops and retro silhouette give it a fun 80s spin for a playful evening outfit or even a bold daytime look.

Metallic accessories are always something we are drawn to, especially around Christmas. Olly has picked out our Green Metallic Chainmail Tote, with its striking multi-tone chainmail-inspired design and relaxed, slouchy shape.

This time of year there’s always a lot of entertaining, and Olly has selected our Nell Stemless Gin Glasses for a bit of a conversation-starter over a festive meal. ‘The rounded ball stems and scalloped bowls feature alternate olive green and clear glass, for a fresh twist.’

‘We like it when hosting is fun and informal,’ says Olly, ‘and our Chequerboard Black & White Ceramic Jug, with its hand-painted irregular chequerboard pattern and contrasting green trim meets the brief.’
