Let's be honest: It's hard to decide what to wear on any given day, much less during Hanukkah. Depending on how one celebrates, the evening's dress code can call for anything from casual to semi-formal, making picking an ensemble all the more challenging. On top of that, you want to choose a Hanukkah outfit that's functional enough for various party settings while still honoring your own personal style. But if that sounds impossible, don't fret. Luckily for you, we love scouring the internet searching for styling inspiration that can guide you in deciding what to wear for Hanukkah.
After extensive research, we're happy to report that we found seven of the best Hanukkah outfit ideas. Fine, you might not need all seven outfits, but if you find your holiday calendar covered in blue, white, and gold this December, we put them together for you anyway. From dressier outfit ideas to a simple slip-dress look, this assortment of chic outfit ideas will be something you can wear again long after the last candle is lit. Keep scrolling for easy-to-copy outfit formulas, styling tips, and shopping recommendations.
Slip Dress + Gold Earrings + Cozy Cardigan
Style Tip: For those celebrating the holiday by planning an intimate family dinner, you'll want to choose a cozy but chic ensemble—enter the look above. Whether you gather around the dinner table or listen to music with loved ones, you will be so comfortable in a velvet slip dress styled with gold jewelry (add slippers or a cardigan to be even comfier).
Blue Dress + Silver Accessories
Style Tip: Wearing a blue dress for Hanukkah? Style it with metallic accessories to make your look shine. If you want to make it even more festive, opt for a blue dress adorned with sequins, feathers, or both (like above).
Navy Suit + High-Neck Blouse + Pointed Heels + Gold Jewelry
Style Tip: Are you planning on celebrating in a more formal setting? Whether you're meeting in-laws or work associates, a modest navy blue suit is a good choice. Finish the look with a high-neck blouse, pointed pumps, and gold or silver jewelry.
Pair with the matching Peak Lapel Blazer ($495).
Silver Jewelry + Tank Top + Slip Skirt + Mules + Metallic Clutch Bag
Style Tip: Put together a casual but chic ensemble with the help of a few cult-classic staples, such as a tank top and slip skirt. You can dress these two items up by pairing them with silver jewelry, heeled mules, and a metallic clutch bag.
Black Dress + Tights + Kitten Heels + Mini Bag + '80s-Inspired Earrings
Style Tip: When in doubt, a little black dress styled with sheer tights, pointed kitten heels, a mini bag, and '80s-inspired earrings will always be chic.
Draped Blouse + Trousers + Earrings + Heels
Style Tip: If you plan on wearing trousers (or jeans) for one of the nights, a draped blouse will give your outfit a festive boost. Depending on your accessories, you can dress the entire look up or down—e.g., add pointed heels and a quilted handbag for a more formal feel or a pair of ballet flats and bold earrings to keep it casual.
Fancy Pajama Set + Party Clutch + Crystal Mesh Shoes
Style Tip: If you want to wear pajamas this season, dress them up by styling them with mesh heels, a party clutch, and crystal jewelry. Bonus points if you opt for a set with luxe details like bright colors, satin materials, or feather cuffs.
