If Lunar New Year had a mood board, it would be this: outfit checks, dessert spreads, family group chats blowing up, and at least one mirror selfie before visiting relatives. This year, Marks & Spencer is stepping into the festive season with a Lunar New Year 2026 collection that understands exactly how Malaysians celebrate today, stylishly, comfortably, and together.
Launched in Kuala Lumpur on 26 January 2026, the M&S Lunar New Year collection is all about modern celebrations. Think bold colours, soft textures and silhouettes that move effortlessly from reunion dinners to casual house visits, because no one wants to change outfits five times in one day (even if the photos say otherwise).
From Visiting Relatives to Being the Best-Dressed Guest
For women, the collection leans into confidence with a playful edge. The Puff Sleeve Belted Mini Dress is made for festive lunches, red packet moments and last-minute family photos. It’s flattering, fun, and very “yes, I planned this outfit”.
Prefer something more chill but still chic? The Knitted Top paired with Barrel Leg Jeans hits that sweet spot between relaxed and refined — perfect for long dinners, endless conversations, and scrolling TikTok while waiting for dessert.
Menswear That Gets the Assignment
This isn’t stiff festive dressing. M&S menswear this season focuses on comfort with quiet confidence. The Supersoft Ribbed Jumper with Wool, layered with a Denim Overshirt and Relaxed Straight Fit Jeans, delivers a clean, modern look that works from daytime visits to night-time celebrations.
“These are pieces you’ll keep wearing long after Lunar New Year ends,” says an M&S brand representative. “They’re designed to feel festive now, but still fit seamlessly into everyday wardrobes.”
Little Fits, Big Festive Energy
Kidswear gets its own moment too. From the adorable Knitted Bow Jumper to the Bubble Hem Bow Dress, the collection is designed for movement, comfort and play, because Lunar New Year is basically a marathon of visiting, eating and running around.
Paired with Flared Denim Jeans, these looks keep kids comfy while still photo-ready for proud family snaps.
Of course, no Lunar New Year is complete without food and M&S Food is here to extend the celebration long after the reunion table is cleared.
From Swiss Chocolates and Milk Chocolate Coated Hazelnuts to indulgent Belgian Chocolate Truffles and nostalgic Assorted Fruit Sherbets, these treats are made for late-night conversations, casual grazing and sharing moments that actually matter.
Because sometimes, the best memories happen after dinner.
This Lunar New Year, M&S blends fashion and flavour into one festive experience modern style, comforting food and moments that bring everyone together.
