1. Canada Goose
Inspired by the prints found on blankets of the Basotho people in Lesotho, South Africa, Canada Goose’s Heirloom Mystique parka brings an understated hint of red to the holidays. The full-length parka with a down-filled hood is made from a luxurious performance satin and can be paired with a matching merino wool shawl in grey.

2. The North Face
The North Face, too, offers cosy options for those headed for the cold. Its Chinese New Year collection features designs in bright orange and olive. The Ripstop Mountain light jacket, made with recycled nylon, promises breathability and mobility thanks to its lightweight Futurelight technology. Its double-layered panels with adjustable hood and sleeves provide maximum wind protection too, keeping you warm and dry on your wintry adventures.
3. Kenzo
Kenzo’s Lunar Year Collection features embroidered dragons emblazoned on the back of jackets. Artistic director Nigo created a bomber jacket and a denim jacket that pay homage to this timeless motif. An oversized dragon, along with the lettering for Kenzo Paris, is a proud celebration of this most auspicious zodiac animal.
