The milieu of misery surrounding the past 12 months has at least one silver lining: this year’s TV and film stars were decked out in some seriously cozy-looking seasonal garments.

Nicole Kidman,Big Little Lies
The soundtrack on this show was great, but its taste in fireside-worthy sweaters was even better. This camel number on the always immaculate Celeste was far and away our favorite.Photo: By Hilary Bronwyn Gayle/Courtesy of HBO.
Ryan Gosling,Blade Runner 2049
Remember when that first promo shot of Gosling hunkered down in a coat that covered half his face? His sweater game was pretty killer, too.Photo: By Stephen Vaughan/Warner Bros. Entertainment.
Basically Everyone in Dunkirk
Sure, sure, it’s a war movie—but for those who don’t exactly revel in such things, the film also provided a bevy of richly textured knitwear. (R.I.P., George; you and your sweater-vest will be missed.)Photo: By Melinda Sue Gordon/Warner Bros. Pictures.

Rose was not just a terrifyingly cold villain—she was a terrifyingly cold villain whose family had a seemingly endless supply of sweaters. We’re still suspicious of anyone who favors red stripes.By Justin Lubin/Universal Studios.
Finn Wolfhard,Stranger Things 2
Sure, Mike was struggling with heartache over Eleven and fear for his friend Will—but it’s worth pointing out that he was also wearing a sweater that, despite its 80s inspiration, would still fit in great with the Williamsburg crowd today.Courtesy of Netflix.
