Tis fast approaching the season to sit in front of your computer on a video call wearing nothing except a Christmas Jumper. You might not be commuting to work as much these days, but there’s still no excuse not to terrify your work colleagues with your taste in garish clothing over the next couple of months.
The Christmas Jumper is increasingly a staple product of the museum shop, so a look around finds the following “delights” for you from London venues.
British Library
Features the message ‘All I Want for Christmas is Books’ on books stacked up like a tree, topped with a golden yellow star, surrounded by yellow accents, with red neckline and cuffs.
Available in four sizes for £45
Doctor Who Museum
A bright red jumper with a gift-wrapped TARDIS on the front and a label saying Merry Xmas to you from The Doctor.

London Transport Museum
A new design for 2022, with a green background an Christmas icons instersperced with a tube train, London buses, hire bikes, and of course, roundels.

Science Museum
The Science Museum doesn’t have a jumper this year, but as the National Railway Museum is part of the same organisation, you can buy a railway jumper from the Science Museum.
