The ugly Christmas sweater has strangely become a feature of the holiday season. Deafeningly loud garments you’d never wear any other time, are now fair game during the Holiday Season.

Telltale signs of the ugly sweater are liberal use of red and green, comically large depictions of snowmen, reindeer, and Christmas trees, and any sort of pom-pom or felt applique.

Dust of your sweater or get your TaoBao fingers searching because we’re celebrating Christams tackiness with an Ugly Sweater Party at the Hop Project. Join us on Friday December 7 and take part with Jello-shots and Happy Hour all night. Of course, there are prizes for the fugliest Christmas sweater. Go on..we dare you..
