With creative direction by David James and shot by Phil Poynter, Church’s Holiday 2025 campaign reimagines the festive spirit with quintessential British wit and elegance. The narrative centres on an eccentric trio, each embodying the many facets of Church’s creations. Gathered before a country pile to discuss the forthcoming festivities, the gentlemen opt for Mayfair Oxford lace-ups and Amberley Chelsea boots, while the lady of the manor dons glossy Alexandra lace-up boots, their lustrous patina achieved by hand with exclusive waxes.

The scene shifts to an impromptu carol concert in the stables. Overcoats and vibrant knitwear harmonise with Church’s iconic Hampstead and Mayfair Oxfords, striking the perfect balance between comfort and tradition, while the lady’s studded Opal Met Mary Janes lend a touch of retro charm. As the group retreats to the warmth of a roaring fire, formality gives way to ease, with timeless slippers crafted from supple nappa leather and velvet.

Bathed in the glow of the Christmas tree, the trio prepares for an evening of fun and frolics. The gents sport Church’s iconic Hertford loafers and Oldford Oxfords, while the lady makes a statement in the Ghillie Met, a modern take on the traditional kilt shoe. Complementing the old-school elegance of the charming dining room, the trio don formal ensembles before changing again as they venture into the night, drawn once more towards the croquet lawn.

As the night draws to a close, a cascade of candles illuminates the hall and, upon the polished stone floor, Church’s leather soles revel in the flickering light. Elevating the festive wardrobe as emblems of craftsmanship, style, and distinction, the brand’s curated accessories complete the exclusive holiday selection.
