When it comes to luxury, you can rest assured that Prestige has it covered. But with the sheer multitude, let alone variety, released regularly on the landscape, it can become rather difficult to figure out the best from the rest or to even pick up the newest and most exciting. As luck would have it, our editors are forever on the look out: discovering on-the-rise labels, picking up new products from cult brands and the finding the most desirable items there are. So for those that are curious what that might be, keep scrolling to discover what made the cut in our weekly Most Coveted list.
Since the Capucines was first created in 2013, it has quickly become one of the house’s most iconic designs. Every season Louis Vuitton has proposed a new interpretation of the bag, and for spring summer 2020, the Capucines BB in slate white taurillon leather with enlarged dove blue shoulder strap and fluorescent chartreuse plexiglass handle finish is our current obsession. The neon colour pop of the top handle adds a twist to what would otherwise be a clean classic. — Dara Chau (DC), Digital Editor

It’s almost wedding season. And though I’m unsure whether I’ll be able to attend, I’m keeping my hopes up by looking at the outfit options. First on the list is this gorgeously romantic light blue dress from Self-Portrait’s spring 2020 collection. It’s intricately crafted in pleated chiffon and designed with a fit and flare silhouette, so that the dress hugs and distracts where it needs to. The hem features lace appliqué at the hem which completes the full wedding event look. — Fontaine Cheng (FC), Digital Writer
Now that I’m spending more and more time at home, having the appropriate comfy loungewear is very necessary. Balenciaga has just released its cozy logo embroidered tartan flannel slippers which are perfect for me to walk around the house with. Crafted in Italy, the slippers are made with a soft red tartan flannel with a square toe silhouette at the front. Balenciaga’s bold typeface logo sits at the vamp all atop a rubber logo-debossed sole. — Austin Miao (AM), Social Media Manager

When it comes to raffia bags, I say the bigger the better. After all, what says summer is coming than an oversized palm leaf-braided bucket bag to carry your city-to-beach essentials. This long shoulder bag also features natural tan leather with gold studs for added luxury. It’s handcrafted in Morocco, where traditional basket weaving has been developed for centuries, so you can be sure your Celine raffia bag is unique in both shape and colour. — FC

If anything can convert me into a print believer, this is it. Fashion house Erdem has joined forces with hand-painted wallpaper company de Gournay over their love of pattern, colour and craftsmanship. Be enthralled in a wonderland of flora and fauna within the confinements of your home – a flock of sparrows, warblers, egrets and pheasants dance in an entanglement of hydrangeas, irises and chrysanthemums. While the wallpaper artwork is magnificent, my preference is to have art in the form of fashion. The wearable maxi dress interpretation features colourful print against black fabric, and is completed with a ruffled high neck collar, cuffed bishop sleeves and tiered hem. — DC

You can’t go wrong with a simple pair of black frames. Whether dressed up or down, black sunglasses are super versatile. For me, I’m always on the hunt for sunglasses and these Barton Perreira 007 Joe sunglasses meet my criteria. The frames are bold yet simple, boasting a masculine aesthetic. Crafted in Japan, the frames are made from Zylonite, with dark-tinted glass lenses. Each pair of glasses has the officially licensed 007 logo on the temple and arrives in a limited edition 007 box with an authenticity card and cleaning cloth. And yes, they were worn by Daniel Craig as James Bond in his upcoming movie No Time To Die. — AM
