A Style Guide to Christmas

Seasonal Gifts for the Fashion Conscious

Who wouldn’t like a luxury fashion gift under their tree on Christmas day? Luxury fashion gifts make for unforgettable Christmas presents. Not only they are beautiful, but designer clothing and accessories are items that one will use for a very long time, reminding us of the person that showed their appreciation through such thoughtful gifts.

MULBERRY x REJINA PYO BLENHEIM HANDBAG

Korea’s influence permeates every aspect of life in the western world, including fashion. British heritage brand Mulberry has launched a limited-edition collection designed with Seoul-born, London-based Rejina Pyo. Its ready-to-wear, bags and other luxury accessories fuse Mulberry’s signature material-first luxury with Pyo’s clean-cut yet playful sensibility. A particular highlight is this pared-back take on the iconic Blenheim handbag, which incorporates Pyo’s recognisable knotted closure. This line has K-Brit style well and truly in the bag. £995 from MULBERRY.

BERLUTI OVERSIZE TOTE

A perfect weekend holdall, this versatile tote in jacquard wool with its characteristic Berluti pattern makes an ideal Christmas gift for the globetrotter in your life or for the busy type who flies around town on a daily basis. It is a superbly stylish bag in which to store a computer and anything else one may need to carry to and from work. £1,800 from BERLUTI.

AN-Y1 RETRO MOTO JACKET

A striking jacket in the softest leather you could imagine. The slim cut is both flattering and comfortable. Details like the blue pipping and the iconic Gulf logo on the chest are testimony to the motorsport heritage of the brand. On the back, we find the AN-Y1 logo embossed into the leather. Once you try it on, you won’t want to take it off. Ever. £850 from AN-Y1.

PRIVATE WHITE V.C. FALLOWFIELD JACKET 

In its late collection, Manchester-based Private White V.C., has joined forces with another Mancunian icon – artist L.S. Lowry – to produce a collection that includes field jackets, pea coats and rugby shirts. The inspiration is found in the smoky, earthy palette and outfits of “stick” figures in Lowry’s works. Ideal as a Christmas gift is the Fallowfield jacket – here featured in pebble – which will work as well in town as it will do in the country. £695 at PRIVATE WHITE VC.

JIMMY CHOO IXIA 95 TINSEL SHOES

Shoes fit for Mrs Claus herself: the flattering IXIA 95 with its signature 95mm heel and square-cut vamp in ruby red with a tinsel-like finish. Definitely THE shoes to add to your collection this Christmas. £750 from JIMMY CHOO.

CROCKETT & JONES DONEGAL 2 DERBY BOOTS

A new style from Crockett & Jones for this season. The Donegal boot is lower than previous designs for a more casual look and has the Last 394 fitting for added comfort. Made from hatch grain hide – a compact oily pull-up leather – for optimum suppleness and durability with a ridgeway sole, which gives a vintage look. £610 from CROCKETT & JONES.

MERRY PEOPLE FERGIE TALL GUMBOOTS

The last wellies you’ll ever buy. Named after the tallest tree in Australia – the Ferguson Tree – they are made from natural rubber, insulated with thick neoprene to make them truly warm and built with arch support. Style has not been compromised either. They are sleek and adjustable at the back, with a fashionable chunky sole and heel.   Here featured in beetroot red. £114.95 from MERRY PEOPLE.
