The holiday season is a time for giving. Finding the right gift can express your appreciation and affection. Here are standout items from four renowned brands that combine style and practicality.
Loewe x Suna Fujita collection
We really should stick to one item here, but Loewe has once again outdone itself, and it has proven difficult to pinpoint the one item that rules them all this festive season.

Creative director Jonathan Anderson has invited this talented husband-and-wife team to create a delightful array of illustrations and ceramics, transporting us through vibrant dreamscapes filled with playful creatures.

Imagine an octopus and a squid dancing around Flamenco and Hammock bags, while a majestic whale glides over Puzzle and Pebble Bucket bags, each crafted with exquisite leather marquetry in stunning aquatic hues. The joyful designs extend to small leather goods, straps, and soft accessories embellished with sparkling crystals and intricate embroideries.
Not only does this collection celebrate creativity and craftsmanship, but it also supports a noble cause: a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Save the Children's Education in Emergencies programme, ensuring safe learning environments for children in crisis around the globe. This blend of artistry and altruism makes the brand's collaboration with Suna Fujita a truly special gift choice this Christmas.
