HD Fashion Gift Guide

With the festive season in full swing, it’s the right time to find the perfect present for all your loved ones. And maybe, also, put a gift for yourself under the Christmas tree for all your hard work and achievements of the year. Here is a selection of the most coveted presents from Hermès, Prada, Saint Laurent, Gucci, Dior and beyond.

Hermès

Who doesn’t dream of finding a Hermès orange box under the Christmas tree? For the festive season, the French Maison selected a whole universe of the most coveted objects for your home - from Bleus d’Ailleurs, Tessages Equestres and Soleil d’Hermès tableware to a picnic set. There is also a selection of accessories for the most special people in your life - think bangles in printed enamel, leather bracelets, iconic Kelly and Constance bags, timeless leather envelopes and avant-garde yet practical cabin suitcases. And of course, the universe of Hermès would not be complete without its beauty objects - brushes, lipsticks, eyeshadows or the newest fragrance Barénia - and an orange - a paper toy in the signature colour of the house to put on your Christmas tree.

Prada

This season, Prada has prepared a special Holiday selection, including Arcqué, Duet, Buckle bags and hair accessories (the velvet black bow is on our wishlist). Iconic bags like Galleria also debut in a micro version, ideal for adding a signature Prada touch to your festive looks. In search of a new pair of shoes? There are the perfect ballet flats and moccasins to excel in your daily elegance. But maybe the most exciting news of the season is that with the charms trend - one of the most omnipresent on the streets of Milan, London, Paris and New York in 2024 - Prada little teddy bears and robots, the most stylish toys to bring everywhere with you, are officially back.

Saint Laurent

We know that you might think that a series of short festive films directed by Nadie Lee-Cohen and starring Charlotte Gainsbourg, John Waters and Chloë Sevigny, and the announcement of Gwyneth Paltrow as the new Saint Laurent muse, the ultimate style icon from the 90s, are the perfect gifts from Anthony Vacarrello to his community for the Holiday season. It’s true, but he also has a bunch of timeless accessories in stock for you. His selection of bags includes bestseller Y Totes and Jamie Shoppings, while the jewellery offering spotlights magnificent earrings with colourful stones and golden cuff bracelets, which will infuse a special Saint Laurent feeling to any silhouette.

Miu Miu

Miu Miu has championed 2024, being one of the most coveted and sought-after brands of the year. For Christmas, Miuccia Prada prepared a special selection of avant-garde accessories to pimp up your style - think an expansive range of shoes, from soft moccasins and slippers to sneakers, knee boots, strappy sandals, and velvet ballerinas, futuristic sunglasses, cutest clips and headbands adorned with XXL paillettes for your hair, and handbags for any occasion – from casual leather classics to sequined New Year’s Eve statement clutches – featuring Arcadie, Aventure, Penny, and Wander bags.

Gucci

Sabato De Sarno puts a twist on the festive season through a special campaign called Gucci Gift, taking us to the emblematic locations in connection with the history of the house such as The Savoy Hotel in London or a Florentinian Palazzo and featuring a Holiday selection of timeless pieces that blend heritage with modern charm. The bestseller Jackie bag is available in black vinyl and in Silver mirror leather, whereas jewellery, sneakers and small leather accessories are adorned by the signature Gucci pattern and Horsebit details.

Dior

As the end-of-year festivities approach, Dior celebrates the magic of winter with a selection of enchanting pieces, inspired by the Dior Cruise 2025 collection, dreamed up by Maria Grazia Chiuri in honour of the magnificence of Scotland. From tableware and jewellery to Lady Dior bags, Dior Book Totes, silk square scarves and hair bobs, every piece is garnished with poetic motifs featuring unicorns, wildflowers, sea creatures and the lucky stars, the most precious magic charm of the house’s founder Christian Dior. 

Louis Vuitton

During the Holiday season, Louis Vuitton brought to our life real magic and our most cherished souvenirs from our childhood, installing carousels in Macau, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Yokohama and in Paris on Place Vendôme, just a few steps away from their flagship store, where you can shop for your Christmas gifts. From the newest Damier collection, a nod to the most famous house’s checked pattern, and bestseller accessories adorned with “fake” travel stickers for the occasion to the cosy silk pyjamas and fur slippers, everyone will find a piece of Louis Vuitton magic for their loved ones.

Bottega Veneta

This season Matthieu Blazy, who has just been appointed the new creative director of Chanel, prepared for Bottega Veneta a Gifting capsule of bestseller accessories available in the most festive hues of the colour palette - gold and silver. So now you can find your favourite Andiamo, Baby Sardine, Jodie, Knot bags and Blink Mules in silver and golden intrecciato leather with a foggy mirror effect - a collectable! But that’s not all, honouring the tradition of celebrating artisans of the house for the fourth consecutive year, Blazy developed a special collection of objects called Bottega for Bottegas, featuring pieces created by six small-scale artisans, each based in or around Venice: the collection includes brass objects by Fonderia Artistica Valese, a wooden puzzle by Signor Blum, a set of playing cards in a leather case by Modiane, glass creations by Laguna B, Bruno Amadi and Wave Murano Glass.

Loewe

Jonathan Anderson always gives a special twist to his creations, and his Holiday capsule for Loewe is no exception. For this festive season, he decided to team up once again with Japanese ceramic artist duo Suna Fujita, whose work and the deep-sea universe have been reimagined across a wide range of signature bags - Flamenco, Puzzle, Hammock, Amazona and Pebble, ready-to-wear and whimsical accessories.
