There are many questions to grapple with when considering what to wear at Christmas. Some people dress for Christmas Day as they would for a cocktail party, in smart frocks and sparkly earrings, while others consider sacrosanct the choice of spending the day in elasticated-waist comfies, the better to accommodate the eating of one’s body weight in mince pies. Some people wear chic black velvet; others love nothing more than donning a novelty jumper with squeaky antlers. Some families wear matching Christmas pyjamas all day; some change into black tie for dinner.
But this is secondary to one consideration that trumps all others. And that is: who’s doing the cooking?
