You still have a few days left to ensure you’re not disappointing anyone and letting the team down by picking up - dare I say it - a Christmas jumper… also known as an “ugly jumper.”
If there is any time of the year where it is acceptable to wear a jumper in an “ironic” fashion, then Christmas would be one of them - but we’ve got you covered if you really can’t stand baubles and red noses on your torso.
From keeping warm in front of the festive “feuer” in a Rammstein knitted jumper, through to Pink Floyd asking if you wished you were where you’re spending Christmas this year, we’ve scoured EMP to find 13 music themed “ugly” jumpers that can still pass if you end up going to the club later that day.
But don’t leave it too late - you only have a matter of days to make your order. You have been warned - or offered a perfect “get out” excuse.
