The holiday season is upon us and annual festivities are beginning to take place -- Gucci's ugly Christmas sweaters are the latest contribution to the cheerful time of year. This season, the high-end fashion house is giving the festive style a luxurious element. The knit sweaters are adorned in graphic patterns that promise to draw in attention. Notably, the designs are complete in bright tonal hues of green, red, yellow, blue, white and more.
