Why everyone is rushing to buy Marks & Spencer’s restocked velvet bows before they sell out
They have been out of stock for weeks, but today they are back in all 3 fabulous colours – but only while stocks last
Bows of all sizes remain one of the biggest trends in Christmas decoration ideas this year, and I'm a big fan. A simple bow adds an elegant touch to any Christmas theme with minimal effort.
And when the bow is oversized, like this one from M&S, it instantly becomes an even bigger showstopper. After being out of stock for weeks, I got an alert this morning that it was finally back in stock.
And because sharing is caring, I'm spreading the word so others don't miss out on these beautiful velvet bows. Indications show they are already 'In Demand'; therefore, I predict they won't hang around long.
The rich red is ideal for any traditional Christmas tree theme. The signature festive colour feels striking and opulent in equal measure, adding vibrancy to any room.
The dark green is my favourite. The opulent shade adds the perfect finishing touch to a ny decorating scheme without overpowering the look. The size alone is enough to captivate with this more subtle colourway.
Brown is the fashion colour of the season, making this hanging bow an on-trend choice for 2026. The rich brown tone is ideal to pair with bronze metallics and warm lights.
Whether adorning trees, wreaths, mantelpieces, or bannisters, the bow decoration trend is an easy way to welcome colour, texture and whimsy to your festive decorating scheme.
The oversized M&S velvet bows measure H65cm by W26cm by L51cm, making them incredibly impactful. The luxurious piled fabric creates an opulent look, while flared ends ensure a premium finish to keep it looking effortlessly chic.
The best thing about these premium bows is that they are full and plump, so they retain that beautiful bow shape – rather than sinking and feeling flat, which some larger bow designs do.
Finished with a practical hanging loop, these XL bow decorations are ready to be hung around the home with ease.

I have just snapped up a Dark Green Velvet Hanging Bow as an alternative tree topper this year, because I've been inspired by Amanda Holden's Christmas decorations to keep it simple with lights and olive green bows.
I've also grabbed a red one to dress my front door, which will look stunning against the deep green shade I painted it last year. I always make my own Christmas wreath, so I may well end up hanging it from that once it's up – either way, the traditional red one is taking pride of place on my front door.
