If your holiday wardrobe doesn’t scream “Look at me, I’m ridiculous!” then what’s the point? But little do some of us know, ugly Christmas sweaters have evolved—literally—with the 3D Dinosaur Ugly Christmas Sweater collection in recent years. Whether you’re team Triceratops or squad T-Rex, these sweaters will have you roaring your way to victory at any ugly sweater contest.
The Triceratops edition features a plushie dino busting out of your chest and back like it just saw a holiday buffet (and you are on its way). The sweater is decked out in vibrant red and green knit patterns that are so classically Christmas, you’ll feel like a walking decoration. And don’t worry, it’s not just for laughs—this sweater actually keeps you warm thanks to its cozy 85% acrylic, 15% wool blend. Plus, the detachable dino lets you tone down the drama if you ever need to blend in (though, let’s be real, why would you?).
Then there’s the T-Rex model, which dials the absurdity up to 11 by giving you a dinosaur not just bursting out of the chest, but also through the back. Or as I would like to call it, an anti-hugging cold buster. Anyhoo, it’s like Jurassic Park meets your grandma’s knitting hobby. This sweater is a perfect match for fans of chaotic Christmas parties or anyone who wants to channel their inner Spielberg this holiday season.
The Triceratops Ugly Christmas Sweater is unisex but for some reason, the T-rex has a version specifically for men and women but yeah, everyone can join the prehistoric party. With sizes for adults and a comfortable fit, you’ll be stomping around the holiday season in style—or at least in something people won’t forget anytime soon.
Now for the good news. The Triceratops sweater is currently discounted to US$40.59 from US$57.99, and the T-Rex edition is on sale for US$52.49, down from US$74.99. Honestly, at full price, they’d almost be an extinction-level event for your wallet, so now’s the perfect time to snag one. Admittedly, they are still pricey for my standard. So over to you…
Also, can I just say that not having an Alien’s chest buster plush ugly Christmas sweater is a huge miss opportunity. There are DIY versions, and maybe a few T-shirts created by enthusiasts or enterprising individuals, but never a commercially available ugly Christmas sweater featuring the infamous Chest Buster.
