Clothing on Shabbat before a Holiday

Question

Hello Rabbi, should we wear the holiday clothes already on this Shabbat, or can we wear them before the holiday begins?

Answer

Hello,
It is advisable to wear them already on Shabbat.
At least on Shabbat afternoon.
However, do not change clothes on Shabbat explicitly for the holiday, but when you put on clothes, for example, after a nap, change into holiday clothes.
