Debenhams is comfortably the biggest single source of Christmas jumpers on this site, and the reason is that it is now an online brand carrying a very large number of other labels rather than a department store with a fixed range. In practice that means the festive rail here is wider and stranger than anywhere else we list.

Everything is in it. Proper wool-blend Fair Isle from the heritage knitwear brands. Full novelty tat with pom-poms on. Jumper dresses, children’s sets, pyjamas, pet jumpers and a long tail of designs from labels you will not have heard of. If you do not know what you want and you want to look at as much as possible in one place, start here – it is the closest thing to browsing a whole high street at once.

Because it is a marketplace of brands, the two things that vary most are sizing and delivery times, and both are per-item rather than site-wide. Check the specific listing rather than assuming. The upside of the same arrangement is that the sales are frequent and the discounts on festive knitwear after the first week of December are often substantial.

Trinnie Floral Fairisle Jumper Christmas jumper from Debenhams

Trinnie Floral Fairisle Jumper

Nordic knit, worn by people who would not call it a Christmas jumper. It says "Trinnie Floral Fairisle", and it is not going to elaborate.

Tulips Floral Fair Isle Jumper Christmas jumper from Debenhams

Tulips Floral Fair Isle Jumper

A Fair Isle yoke, doing the heavy lifting without shouting. Fit for its one fortnight of the year. Holds up under a coat, which half of these do not.

Turkey Head Sweatshirt Christmas jumper from Debenhams

Turkey Head Sweatshirt

A character jumper, and the character is doing the work. It says "Turkey Head", and it is not going to elaborate.

V Neck Fairisle Jumper Christmas jumper from Debenhams

V Neck Fairisle Jumper

Proper Fair Isle, which has been quietly right for a hundred years. No notes. Does what it says and stops there.

Winnie The Pooh Christmas Dinner T-Shirt from Debenhams

Winnie The Pooh Christmas Dinner T-Shirt

Nostalgia, legally cleared and printed at scale. Short sleeves, for buildings with the heating set to August. It will be in the drawer again next year, which is the real test.
