SwapXXchange in Montclair is Your Ugly Christmas Sweater Headquarters

When it comes to this trend, the uglier the better.

Ugly Christmas sweaters have never gone out of style — and that's because they never were in style to begin with.

But if you want to be an on trend, the thing to do is throw an Ugly Christmas Sweater Party.

The owners of SwapXXChange in Montclair said they had about 60 sweaters at the start of the season and admitted the hideous holiday knits are in high demand. 

About a dozen were still available Friday for those looking for a last-minute chance to jump on the tacky tradition. 

And why not? Celebrities are doing it, and even Esquire has covered the fashion nightmare before Christmas.  

Think you might throw an Ugly Christmas Party yourself? Let Pinterest help you plan it. 

Just think, you won't have to worry about what to wear, because the uglier the better.
