Ready to sleigh your décor game? Let’s dive in.

No 15: Monochromatic, Modern & Merry

In 2025, Christmas trees are getting the monochrome moment they deserve. Think of it as the “capsule wardrobe” of holiday décor — one colour, all the drama. By sticking to a single shade, your tree instantly looks chic, intentional, and straight out of a designer holiday photoshoot. It’s simple, it’s stylish, and it turns even the most traditional tree into a modern festive icon. One colour, endless slay.

No 14: Crimson Christmas

No, not in a creepy "Dexter' way, but Christmas is having a full-on crimson crush. This trend is all about going all-in on rich, bold red — ornaments, ribbons, florals, even the tree skirt. It’s dramatic, moody, and totally main-character energy. Crimson turns your tree into a statement piece that feels luxe, cozy, and a little bit spicy. It’s red, but make it runway.

No 13: Get Ballsy

This style has a been a staple for a couple years now, and while it's not our favourite, it still needs to be mentioned. What is it you ask? Covering the entire tree from tip to trunk in nothing but ornaments — big ones, tiny ones, glossy, matte, all the textures. It gives that perfectly plump, ultra-luxe; like your tree just stepped out of a holiday fashion editorial. It’s bold, playful, and the perfect glittery show-off.

No 12: Maximalist Christmas

Again, not one of our favourites but we can't help but notice that Christmas trees are going full maximalist behaviour — and honestly, it’s fabulous. More ornaments, more textures, more ribbon, more sparkle… just more. This trend is all about piling on the personality until your tree looks like it’s hosting its own holiday party. It’s loud, it’s joyful, it’s unapologetically extra — because why be subtle when you can be spectacular?

No 11: Minimalist Christmas

Minimalism is the calm after the glitter storm — the chic counterpart to this year's maximalist mayhem. This trend clears the noise and goes for a soft whisper of holiday magic: fewer ornaments, softer tones, intentional placement, and tons of breathing room. It’s serene, stylish, and proves you don’t need “more” to make a moment. It’s Christmas… but on quiet luxury mode.

No 10: Statement Bow

Christmas trees are getting their main-character moment with one big, dramatic statement bow. Think of it as the tree’s crown — oversized, glamorous, and totally unapologetic. Whether it’s velvet, metallic, or sheer and sparkly, the statement bow turns your tree into a gift all on its own. It’s simple, stunning, and gives instant “wrapped to perfection” vibes.
