Heart Written Holiday
Montblanc ushers in the magic of winter through its own Happy Holidays capsule, inspired by the majestic peak of the Mont Blanc mountain.
The capsule consists of a spacious tote bag, a pouch for key essentials, a pen pouch to protect your Montblanc writing instrument, and a Notebook #146 for capturing those special moments in writing.
To prepare you for your holiday travels, the capsule is completed with a #MY4810 trolley in cabin size. The luggage features a winter landscape printed on ivory-colored polycarbonate and smart storage solutions on the inside for easy packing.
Montblanc has also curated a selection of presents that are ready to be wrapped in a white gift box. Some of the brand’s suggestions include writing instruments such as the Meisterstück, leather goods such as the Meisterstück Messenger and the Montblanc 142 Bag in mini size, and watches like the Iced Sea Automatic Date.
Timeless Offerings
Lacoste’s curated gift guide features pieces from its Fall/Winter 2024 collection, consisting of apparel, bags, footwear, accessories, and fragrances.
The brand’s cozy tops like the Oversized Wool V-Neck Tennis Sweater and the Croc Wool Sweater are a blend of warmth and style, perfect for spending the holidays in colder weather.
With all the events packed into the last few days of the year, a trusty, versatile bag is also a must-have. Check out Lacoste’s Lora Leather Shoulder Bag, Maheki Leather Shoulder Bag, and Reversible Anna Tote.
For friends and family who are always on-the-go, these essentials could make the perfect gift. The L.12.12 Polo Shirt is a comfortable and stylish everyday choice while the L003 Neo Tech Trainers promise comfort, support, and durability to its wearer.
Lastly, freshen up with the Lacoste Original Eau de Parfum which carries notes of fresh pink pepper and bergamot with an aromatic lavender heart, finishing with sandalwood and tonka bean.
Winter Essentials
Carolina Herrera’s CHartan collection embraces traditional Scottish fabric, offering cozy garments crafted from wool, cashmere, and mohair.
Showcasing shoes, scarves, sweaters, and hats, the brand also highlights its newest addition to the collection, the Fusta Insignia Bowling Bag.
Handcrafted in soft Ficus suede or Sequoia leather, the bag is embossed with Carolina Herrera’s initials and allows for both hand and shoulder wear.
Sweater Weather
A pioneer of British outerwear, Burberry’s garments are grounded in purpose, functionality, and adventure. This winter, the brand features seven key styles, reimagined: the trench, the Harrington, the quilt, the puffer, the parka, the aviator, and the duffle.
The iconic trench coat is partially lined for lightness and a sense of ease, now with new B-shaped hardware and exaggerated gun flaps for added protection from the rain. Meanwhile, the Harrington is a casual jacket made from water-repellent gabardine.
The quilt is made from diamond-stitched nylon, lightly padded for warmth with insulating fibres while the puffer is also functional in lightweight nylon. The style reverses from a solid colour to the Burberry Check.
Once worn by pioneering explorers, Burberry has reinterpreted the parka for the modern wearer in cotton twill and a faux fur trim. Designed for pilots in the early 20th century, the aviator has been updated as well with lamb shearling and adjustable elements.
Finally, the duffle, a style originally worn by the British Royal Navy, is designed for protection in warm wool and cashmere.
Festive Capsule Collection
In a collaboration with Japanese artist Verdy, Kenzo has unveiled a holiday-themed capsule collection featuring three new special characters: Winky the Tiger, Deezy the Flower, and Bimpy the Elephant.
The collection offers a mixture of knitwear and solid jersey essentials, with both bold, graphic designs as well as more discreet options.
Along with accessories such as caps, wallets, and leather keychains, the collaboration also features collectibles that can make ideal holiday gifts, including ceramic mugs, a snowglobe, stickers, blankets, and rugs.
