1. THE BAG FOR LIFE

At FLANNELS we’re firm believers that there’s no better gift than a brand-new bag. And when that bag is one of the hottest bags of the season? Then you’ve won Christmas. So, what’s on their wish list this year? Gucci’s Jackie Shoulder Bag for one. Fresh from the brand’s archive, it comes in a slouchy silhouette and is covered in the brand’s signature monogram for statement-making appeal. Prada’s Re-Nylon Saffiano Tote is a) chic, b) culty and c) classic, making it a real crowd pleaser. And as for Alexander McQueen? Their slick mini bag, cut with their knuckleduster skull detailing, will impress even the most discerning bag lover.

2. THE SHOES THEY’LL LOVE FOREVER

Nothing says ‘Happy Christmas’ like a new pair of shoes. Whether he’s into classic sneakers, big energy boots or ultra-luxe loafers, we’ve got something to suit. To kick things off, Balenciaga and Off-White have stepped up with the hottest sneakers of the season; the 3xl’s and Out Of Office Trainers. Gucci are taking the Christmas gifting assignment very seriously with their boots that go big on logomania, while Saint Laurent have taken a pared-back approach with their slick black army boots. And if they’ve been really good this year? A pair of Prada’s Chocolate Loafers seem appropriate.

3. THE MUST-HAVE ACCESSORIES

The best part of Christmas? It’s always been the trimmings. And while roast potatoes and pigs in blankets will always have a special place in our hearts, in 2023, we’re approaching added extras a little differently. This year it’s all about fresh, new luxury accessories. And trust us, they make the perfect gift. The Fausto Sunglasses from Tom Ford are a must-have all year round (but particularly in party season when we’re all hiding tired eyes). Gucci have gone big with their aptly named Timeless Watch, which ends the debate: good things do indeed come in small packages. Don’t believe us? Allow Versace’s Medusa Ring in silver to make the point. While Prada’s Triangoli Cardholder is the ultimate elevated touch. Getting the bill have never been more of a flex.

1. THE CULT SCENT

Sugar, spice and everything nice. Topping up his fragrance roster is always a good idea. A cult classic, Creed’s Aventus Eau De Parfum is exactly what we want to see come December 25th. As is Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather Eau De Parfum, which is rich, woody and – you guessed it – leathery. So, a spritz of that will be a welcome addition on every night out, from now until forevermore. Bright and citrussy, the new Myslf Eau De Parfum by Saint Laurent is a hot topic right now, alongside Le Labo’s delicious Bergamote 22.
