It’s here! The DRESS:FANCY Christmas special.

This is always a show full of delight and sequins but this year, it’s an extra-glittery treat because we’re taking you all to Claridge’s.

Join Host Lucy Clayton as she uncovers the magic and mystery behind the festive season at this iconic hotel. Recorded on location with Claridge’s Archivist Kate Hudson and Communications Director, Charlotte Alexander-Stace, in this episode we meet the world’s most fashionable Christmas Trees.

What happens when visionary creatives run wild on the theme of Christmas? Since 2009 legendary names from the fashion and design industries have made their mark in the lobby at Claridge’s, with trees full of surprise, splendor and sparkle. With a starry line up including John Galliano, Alber Elbaz, Dolce & Gabbana, Christopher Bailey, Karl Lagerfeld, Diane von Furstenburg, Christian Louboutin and Kim Jones.

We trace the origins of this tradition, reflecting on the talent behind the concept and go behind the scenes to discuss the process, the people, the history and the hilarity of a Claridge’s Christmas.

Let us transport you to the centre of Mayfair and the official start to Christmas.
