It’s not just a holiday party, it’s a fashion statement. And while ugly Christmas sweater parties are hardly a rarity, Kipper Schauer‘s annual fete — now in its sixth iteration — takes kitsch, irony and seasonal revelry to a whole new level. “There will be drinking, merriment and awesome clothing. Appearances by Santa Claus. Immortalize the moment with a shot in our photo booth,” says the Facebook invite. Schauer, aka DJ Kipper, reunites with fellow DJ Dr. Awesome “to bring you the only holiday party that isn’t filled with awkward situations.” And as for where to find the perfect apparel? Big-box stores are stocked up on Christmas sweaters and sweater vests, according to Schauer, and “Goodwill is also a great source, but may be pretty picked through. There’s also enough time to make your own.” The party takes place at Broadway’s on Friday, Dec. 19, at 9 p.m. avl.mx/0kp. Photo courtesy of Schauer
