Nothing Says Happy Holidays Like *NSYNC, Lizzo, and More Pop Culture Icons on Christmas Sweaters

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

Some holiday traditions should remain forever unchanged (like decorating for Christmas before Thanksgiving), while there are others that are more adaptable. For instance, this year is the perfect time to let your old ugly Christmas sweaters rest, and buy some fabulous, pop culture-inspired sweaters instead. I mean, nothing says, "Happy Holidays" quite like *NSYNC, Lizzo, David Rose from Schitt's Creek, Dolly Parton, and other pop culture icons proudly displayed on your Christmas sweaters. From political heroes, to talented musicians, and even hilarious fictional icons (looking at you Michael Scott from The Office), there is a sweater for everyone, all with snowflakes, reindeer, trees, and other festive accents. Ahead, shop 25 of our favourite pop culture Christmas sweaters, and get ready to totally sleigh your next holiday party!
