What do you give to the person who seems to be in hotel rooms more than their own home…? If you have a luxe traveller in your life, we’ve selected the best gifts to help enhance their wanderlust adventures – personalised luggage included.
From the plane-friendly cashmere co-ord to travel perfume that speaks their language, you’ll find it all here in our luxe gift guide curated with the jet set in mind.
There’ll be no mistaking who owns this Anya Hindmarch travel bag, thanks to its bespoke lettering. Choose from customisable red, blue or tan appliqué letters to display your chosen initials on the side. With a nostalgic vintage vibe, the hardwearing canvas holdall comes with a padlock and key housed in a matching tag to keep all her worldly possessions safe.
Save her the faff of packing up her staple skincare haul with Omorovicza’s Great Escape Kit. This set of travel-sized products means she can fly through security. Housed in a chic Budapest-themed cosmetics bag, you’ll find the iconic Queen of Hungary Mist (30ml), Cleansing Foam (30ml), Elemental Emulsion (30ml), Daily Vitamin C (5ml) and Copper Peel.
For a dress that’s bound to induce wanderlust, wrap up this ‘Journal of a Traveller’ dress from Johanna Ortiz. Made for safari and tropical adventures, the graphic jungle-themed print features vines and panthers in contrasting burnt orange and dove grey. Easy to throw on for vacation dinners, it comes in a classic wrap shape with cinched waist and ruffled hem details.
Admittedly, not one for the suitcase (excess baggage alert) but this chic trio of coffee table books are sure to be favourites amongst her travel tomes back home. Packed with picture-postcard visuals, Assouline's three hardcover books explore the shorelines of Mykonos, Comporta, and the Turkish Riviera. Made for beach lovers, she can flick through the Instagramable pages of sandy beaches and sapphire coastlines to plan her next summer trip from the sofa.
Gift a gold trinket that gives her direction when she travels, like Missoma’s dainty compass amulet necklace. The collection of artful amulets are all about love, luck and inspiration, with a touch of wanderlust… Strung with a compass-engraved pendant, it symbolises direction and purpose – especially apt if she’s prone to getting lost in transit.
Meet the only travel two-piece for the woman who’s forever doing long haul. Allude’s soft cashmere sweater (oversized round neck) and trousers (cropped, with drawstring waist) are the cosiest you’ll find. Add in a pair of cashmere socks and a sleep mask to help melt away the jet-lag. If she’s prone to spills on the plane, the chic set also comes in navy or black.
For a parfum that speaks her language, put Ex Nihilo’s Lust in Paradise on her radar. With top notes of pink pepper, heart notes of white peony and lychee, and base notes of white cedarwood, musk and amber, Lust in Paradise embodies French Riviera vibes. It’s the type of vacation fragrance that’s made to be worn with your best shades and swimsuit (see below).
We defy you to put on this palm print swimsuit and not dream of sun-drenched skies in your favourite tropical destination. The ultimate one piece for wanderlusters, Melissa Odabash’s Bora Bora features skinny shoulder straps, open back and flattering high-cut legs for maximum tan potential. Double it up as a body with shorts for lunch by the ocean.
Expect major envy in the departure lounge with this Gucci carry-on suitcase. Designed in collaboration with British brand Globe-Trotter, it’s the ultimate double-act of catwalk style and luggage design. The hard-shell case has a subtle house GG Supreme canvas, beige base and leather belt straps, gleaming silver-toned rivet hardware and coordinating lockable clasp fastening. And the inside? Just as luxe as you’d expect with crimson satin lining.
