Zeta Phi Beta 1920 Blue Ugly Christmas Sweater

Zeta Phi Beta 1920 Blue Ugly Christmas Sweater carries the Royal Blue and Pure White legacy of Howard University’s January 16, 1920 founding right into December chapter charity drives, holiday socials, and winter family gatherings. Arched across the upper chest in crisp Pure White block lettering, “ZETA PHI BETA” curves above “— 1920 —” in tribute to the Five Pearls—Arizona Cleaver Stemons, Pearl Anna Neal, Myrtle Tyler Faithful, Viola Tyler Goings, and Fannie Pettie Watts.

Directly below the founding year, the sorority’s official white dove rises in mid-flight with a green olive branch in its beak and a fringed Royal Blue “ZΦB” scarf wrapped around its neck, uniting the peace and harmony of the dove emblem with classic winter knitwear.

White Dove Symbolism and Royal Blue Fair Isle Details

Every element of the winter artwork honors the ideals of Scholarship, Service, Sisterhood, and Finer Womanhood. Beneath the ascending dove’s outstretched wings, two blue-and-white striped Christmas gift boxes stamped with “ZΦB” rest on a pebbled white snowbank, framed by evergreen boughs and glossy royal blue and silver ornaments. Both long sleeves echo the torso composition with wide Pure White upper-arm bands bearing Royal Blue “ZΦB” Greek letters directly above sculpted white ribbon bows, while horizontal Nordic rows of eight-point snowflakes and knit hearts wrap the shoulders, sleeves, and lower hem.

Smooth Stretch Comfort From December Parties to January 16th

Because December chapter banquets, toy drives, and indoor campus events quickly warm up, this unisex crewneck pullover replaces heavy, scratchy wool yarn with a lightweight 95% polyester and 5% spandex blend. High-definition all-over dye-sublimation printing locks the deep Royal Blue ground and Pure White cable-stitch highlights directly into the fabric weave, delivering the visual depth of hand-knitted yarn with a smooth, breathable interior that never itches or pills against the skin.

And since Zeta Phi Beta observes Founders’ Day on January 16th just three weeks after Christmas, the wintry snowflake-and-dove palette transitions naturally from late-December gift exchanges right into mid-January sisterhood brunches and rededication gatherings.
