Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and it’s the perfect time to gather with loved ones, express gratitude, and indulge in delicious feasts. While the focus of this beloved holiday is undoubtedly on togetherness and good food, it’s also an opportunity to showcase your style and make an impression.

But at the same time, you don’t want to look out of the place at the table if everyone else is wearing flannels, leggings and hoodies. While the occasion does call for a more formal attitude and a formal dress code (ps. get our exclusive Cocktail Dress Code Decoded Guide to learn about how to adhere to the Thanksgiving dress code), Thanksgiving Day has been reinvented for 2024.

So, what to wear for Thanksgiving Day 2024? Whatever you want? There are new style rules this year. For this Thanksgiving day wear an outfit that makes you feel great, comfortable and warm. Here are some casual Thanksgiving Day outfits that should make you feel this way.

Ps. All these comfortable outfits for Thanksgiving Day 2024 are in style for fall winter 2024/25 too.

QUIET LUXURY CASUAL THANKSGIVING DAY OUTFITS WITH LEGGINGS

First, a chic casual Thanksgiving day outfit with leggings. But with no flannels. You can’t wear leggings and a flannel shirt for Thanksgiving Day 2024. You need something far more exciting and fashionable.

As the holiday season approaches, it’s the perfect time to rethink your traditional Thanksgiving Day fit. While cozy flannels and leggings have long been the go-to choices for a casual and comfortable look, you can step up your style without compromising on comfort. And when it comes to combining comfort with a touch of sophistication, wool skinny pants that are as comfortable as leggings but have a cigarette-style fit, are your best friend.

FLUFFY CAMEL SWEATER WITH LEGGINGS AND LOAFERS

You need a pair of pants that offer both style and comfort. Enter Max Mara Pegno skinny pants – a versatile alternative to leggings that redefine casual elegance. While leggings offer unbeatable comfort, Pegno skinny pants take it up a notch in terms of sophistication. These slim-cut, cigarette-style pants give the same ease of movement as leggings but with a more polished and put-together appearance.

We are obsessed with their cut and fabric, which is both cozy and warm, making them an excellent choice for a Thanksgiving Day outfit. Skinny Max Mara pants are designed to keep you comfortable throughout the day while ensuring you look effortlessly chic, even during the most extended feasts and celebrations.

Now, let’s talk about the ideal pairing for your new Max Mara pants. You need a fluffy sweater! For the perfect blend of comfort and sophistication, pair your skinny wool pants with a cozy, mohair camel sweater. Soft and stylish, indulge in a heady mix of fluffy fabrics with a luxurious feel. Whether you are prepping for sitting on a couch or getting ready for the biggest dinner of the year, a fluffy sweater is your ultimate answer to comfort this year.

To complete this polished yet laid-back look, slip into a pair of soft loafers from the Row.

BOUJEE 2024 THANKSGIVING DAY OUTFITS WITH JEANS

Yes, you can wear jeans for Thanksgiving Day. Whether you’re hosting a gathering, spending the day with loved ones, or enjoying a low-key celebration, jeans provide the perfect foundation for crafting an outfit that blends style and ease.

CARDIGAN SWEATER WITH FASHIONABLE JEANS AND BOOTS

Just imagine yourself in an effortlessly chic outfit featuring the most popular jeans of the season. The cool autumn air greets you as you approach the charming countryside venue. The fading sun radiates a warm, golden hue over the landscape, creating a breathtaking panorama of orange and gold foliage that mirrors the season’s grandeur.

The golden glow from the porch light illuminates a pathway of fallen leaves that crunch gently beneath your new black boots. Or is there snow already?

You take a deep breath and press the doorbell. The door swings open, and your little niece and some other kids greet you with a warm smile, super excited to see you. They grab your hand and drag you inside, straight to the dining room. Pov, luckily your red Sézane cardigan sweater can be pulled without losing its form.

RED SILK RUFFLED BLOUSE WITH MODERN SKINNY JEANS AND PRETTY SHOES

Picture the comforting and warm dining room. The table is adorned with autumnal decorations. All the place settings are meticulously arranged, and the flickering candles cast a soft, inviting light. The room is filled with the delicious scents of Thanksgiving, as the rich aroma of turkey and the comforting notes of spices and herbs envelop you.

You take your place at the table, finding the designated spot where your mother has arranged a lovely setting for you. The wooden chair is comfortably cushioned, and the tableware gleams softly under the candlelight. Your mother’s thoughtfulness shines through in every detail, and the atmosphere is charged with the spirit of togetherness and gratitude.

Then there’s the comforting warmth of the buttery mashed potatoes. They are perfectly creamy – not how you like them, but ok. As you breathe in, the sweet and tart notes of cranberry sauce reach you.

The savory fragrance of gravy, with hints of roasted pan drippings and warm spices, adds depth to it. And the senses of taste and smell intertwine as you take your first bite.

The silky, buttery mashed potatoes (as silk as your new blouse) melt in your mouth, complemented by the zesty cranberry sauce, which adds a sweet and tart contrast to the rich, savory dishes.

And just when you think the sensory experience couldn’t get any better, mom brings a freshly baked apple pie. The scent of sweet cinnamon and warm, caramelized apples, fills the room. The buttery, flaky crust beckons you, and as you take your first bite. And the familiar flavors of autumn come rushing in.

Pov, so much food, luckily you are wearing the most comfortable jeans!

CAPSULE CASUAL THANKSGIVING DAY OUTFITS WITH CARDIGAN

Pov, with all the food at the table, you might want to shop for casual Thanksgiving day outfits that will help you hide your turkey tummy. Outfits with a cardigan are great for that. No one will see your growing tummy under the buttons.

Black leather pants, on the other hand, bring a touch of edginess to your outfit. They boost confidence that you need when answering the annoying “when will you have kids questions”. Moreover, the luxurious texture adds depth and contrast to your overall look.

For a final touch of flair, the Malone Souliers Maureen flat mules take your Thanksgiving Day outfit to the next level. Malone Souliers Maureen flat mules offer a sense of refinement and charm that is second to none. Their unique design and impeccable craftsmanship ensure that your outfit is both comfortable and visually captivating. Plus, they are very comfortable – especially for those who wear heels on the go.

SHORT CARDIGAN WITH DARK WASH PUDDLE JEANS AND SHEER BALLET FLATS

TRENDY CASUAL THANKSGIVING DAY OUTFIT IDEAS WITH A DRESS

Next, the easiest and the most comfortable casual Thanksgiving day 2024 outfits. Thanksgiving day 2024 outfits with a dress. While you might associate dresses with more formal occasions, the latest dress trend has expanded the possibilities of dress-wearing to include relaxed and cosy events like Thanksgiving. This year, it’s all about redefining what casual means in the context of a dress outfit.

A fashionable short boho dress, to be more exact.

SHORT BOHO DRESS AND KITTEN HEEL SLINGBACKS

A fashionable short boho dress is the perfect choice to blur the lines between comfort and style. Pov, Wearing a boho dress, you will be able to eat as much food as you want and still be able to breathe normally when everyone else tries to loosen their pants. 

All in all, its chic design provide a snug, effortless fit while ensuring you look put-together for the holiday festivities. And the versatility of this dress allows you to adapt it to various Thanksgiving Day scenarios, whether you’re hosting a gathering, sharing an intimate dinner, or simply enjoying a cozy day at home.

Even though a sweater won’t help you hide the turkey tummy, it’s very comfortable.
