THE ONLY THING YOU'LL WANT TO WEAR THIS JANUARY

From knitwear staples to oversized hoodies, here is your guide on what to wear this season.

WORDS: GIULIANA BIONDI Photographer: jane doe

It’s that time of year again when all you really need is loungewear. As the days get shorter and the temperature drops, comfort naturally takes centre stage. Whether you’re working from home, winding down after a long day or embracing slower weekends, loungewear becomes less of a fashion moment and more of a lifestyle.

But today’s loungewear isn’t just about staying cosy, it’s about looking good while doing so. Think soft fabrics, relaxed silhouettes and thoughtfully designed pieces that move seamlessly from sofa to street. From knitwear staples and oversized hoodies to everyday tees and comfy joggers, these are the go-to staples that take the edge off the January blues.

1. THE KNITWEAR STAPLES

We’re kicking things off with the season’s must-have knitwear. Think cosy crew necks, timeless cardigans, quarter-zips and more. At the forefront is Cole Buxton, with the International Knit Jumper and Star Knit Sweater setting the tone. Designed in classic colourways, they’re perfect for layering and styling with ease, while the signature chest motifs give each piece an unmistakable stamp of style. Next up is Aries’ Oversized Chenille Column Knit Cardigan. Made from luxe soft chenille, it lends a plush feel and unique texture. The relaxed, oversized fit makes layering a breeze, while the column detailing brings a modern edge that makes it standout in any wardrobe rotation.

2. THE OVERSIZED HOODIES

The starting point to any great loungewear look? An oversized hoodie. Whether you’re heading to the airport, going out for a coffee run, or catching up with friends, it’s one of those pieces that seamlessly moves from home comfort to everyday street style. Leading the lineup is Billionaire Boys Club’s Camo Hoodie. Its relaxed fit gives that effortlessly cool vibe, while the camo pattern and pink logo across the chest add a fun, statement-making touch. A further go-to pick is Represent’s Hand Drawn Thoroughbred Hoodie. With its hand drawn artwork, aged black finish and soft premium cotton, it creates the ideal mix of comfort and bold, fashion-forward style.

3. THE EVERYDAY T-SHIRTS

Another essential piece in any loungewear lineup is the everyday t-shirt – especially the boxy, oversized styles. Easy, comfortable and versatile, they’re the kind of staple every wardrobe needs. First up are about:blank and Cole Buxton, both of which have perfected the oversized silhouette. With dropped shoulders and a relaxed fit, these tees are all about comfort, while their signature logos add a clean, recognisable finish. Following close behind is Represent’s baby blue Legacy Cherubs Logo T-Shirt. Minimal at the front and a party at the back, it features the brand’s signature cherubs for a nod to Renaissance-inspired designs, adding a playful edge to an otherwise laid-back look.

4. THE COMFY JOGGERS

When it comes to loungewear, comfort always comes first – that’s where the comfy jogger comes into play. From relaxed straight-leg styles to classic cuffed hems, these easy essentials are a must-have in any wardrobe – made for slowing down and feeling good. Sitting at the top of our list is Represent’s Legacy Joggers. With their relaxed fit, straight leg and eye-catching motifs, they strike the perfect balance of fashion and function. What’s not to love? Another firm favourite is Cole Buxton’s International Joggers. Defined by the brand’s signature silhouette, cuffed hems and subtle mark of luxury, they’re the kind of staple you’ll reach for time and time again.

5. THE LOUNGEWEAR SETS

For days when you just want to throw something on and go, a loungewear set has you covered. A matching set gives you a coordinated, put-together look – no thought required. A top two-piece choice is Fear Of God Essentials' Tracksuit Top and Fleece Shorts. Both are lined with soft fleece for warmth, while the top features a handy zip for easy layering and the shorts come with a drawstring for a personalised fit. Need something with a bit more coverage? Opt for about:blank’s Logo Hoodie and Pleated Sweatpants. The clean, minimalist design keeps things simple, while the soft fabric and relaxed fit make it just as comfortable for lounging to running errands.

6. THE RELAXED SLIPPERS

Now for the finishing touch: the relaxed slipper. The ultimate loungewear companion, a good slipper is where comfort meets style. Whether you’re catching up on your favourite series or popping out for a quick errand (we won’t judge), the right pair makes all the difference. A brand that’s firmly on our radar? UGG. From the iconic Tasman slippers to the timeless mules and classic styles, their range is in high demand, and it’s easy to see why. The soft suede uppers create a cosy microclimate for your feet, the plush sheepskin lining offers cloud-like comfort and the durable soles mean they’re just as happy outdoors as they are at home. Another favourite is the Birkenstock Boston Suede Clogs. Known for its anatomically shaped footbed, adjustable strap and suede uppers, they’re a wardrobe essential you can wear all-year round. With pairs like these, your loungewear look is truly complete.
