The red pouch contains a five-step plan, including a hydrating cleansing cream, a brightening eye treatment, and a firming serum that promises to soften the signs of any party-induced tiredness. ￡230, Dr. Barbara Sturm Victoria Beckham Aria mididress There are two types of people on Christmas Day: those who dress up for the occasion, and those who happily lounge in their pyjamas. For those seeking style without compromising on comfort, look to Victoria Beckham's Aria dress. Its draped silhouette is gathered into a twist at the waist and falls to an asymmetric hem — ideal for Christmas lunch and beyond. ￡990, Victoria Beckham at Liberty &Klevering Blue Rialto Tall Glass Set Toast to the festivities with these stylish cocktail glasses from the Dutch interiors brand &Klevering. They're made from hand-blown soda glass and finished in a pastel tortoiseshell pattern that will add pizzazz to any bar cart. ￡55, &Klevering at Liberty Soft Goat Alpaca zip cardigan Soft Goat makes a convincing case for dressing like a very fashionable yeti with this fluffy alpaca-blend cardigan. The Swedish brand sources natural fibres from nomadic farmers in the Gobi Desert for its super-soft knitwear. Wear this with a satin skirt and kitten heels, or keep things casual with jeans and a T-shirt. ￡300, Soft Goat Prada Argyle cashmere polo sweater Prada proves that Christmas jumpers don't have to be brash or gaudy with this festive Argyle style. Pretty and preppy without straying into golfer territory, it's sumptuously soft. Made in Italy from pure cashmere, it's the perfect layer to see her through the chilly days between Christmas and New Year — and the return to the office in January. ￡1,730, Prada at Mytheresa Advertisement Original Fold Reformer If her new year's resolution is always to get back into the gym, make the process a whole lot easier by giving her an at-home Pilates reformer. In our opinion, Fold makes one of the prettiest. Made using maple wood and vegan leather, it folds away when not in use, so it won't become an eyesore or a trip hazard when the living room is full of guests at Christmas. ￡2,000, Fold Reformer Loewe small Whisker bag in glazed calfskin New for the autumn/winter 2026 collection, Loewe's bag has a relaxed silhouette, a sculptural top handle and an elongated zip opening that resembles a pair of whiskers. Red is always a jolly choice for Christmas. ￡2,450, Loewe Graff Tilda's Bow diamond earrings You can never go wrong with diamonds, especially when they come in the form of statement earrings inspired by silk bows — just like the ribbon you'll lovingly wrap them with. These feature approximately 5.85 carats of white diamonds set in white gold, each stone cut to follow the design's delicate curves. ￡56,500, Graff Olivia von Halle Soren striped silk-satin pyjamas Even if she isn't usually the type to lounge in her pyjamas all day at Christmas, this candy cane-inspired silk-satin set from Olivia von Halle could convince her otherwise. ￡630, Olivia von Halle at Net-a-Porter Johnstons of Elgin set of three ribbed cashmere-blend socks Johnstons of Elgin's trio prove that socks don't have to be relegated to the stocking; they can be a main present in their own right. The red pair will look particularly festive worn with loafers on Boxing Day. ￡190, Johnstons of Elgin at Net-a-Porter Advertisement Bernadette Oscar bow-detail gathered taffeta midiskirt Solve her annual what-to-wear-on-Christmas-Day conundrum by putting this Bernadette taffeta midiskirt under the tree. It will look equally chic with a jersey rollneck, knitwear, ballet flats or heels, while the fir tree-green shade and miniature bows at the hips offer a nod to the festivities. ￡670, Bernadette at Net-a-Porter Nooance Laser and LED Hair Helmet Pro Perhaps she asked for an LED face mask last year and is already sold on the power of red light therapy. Perhaps she would now like a version for her hair, designed to help stimulate growth and create a fuller-looking appearance. Or perhaps you'll simply all enjoy the fact that she looks like an astronaut while wearing it. ￡945, Nooance at Selfridges Bamford Geranium hamper This elegant white wicker hamper from Bamford features a selection of bestselling products from its Geranium range. It's the perfect invitation to pamper, allowing her to enjoy bath and body products and home fragrances long into the new year. ￡250, Bamford Gucci women's Donna slip-on boot If she's spent all autumn wishing she had the perfect pair of knee-high boots — we've all been there — surprise her with this pointed leather pair from Demna's latest collection for Gucci. A piece of fashion history, no doubt. ￡1,640, Gucci The best luxury Christmas gifts for him Mulberry Card Wallet Give him a good excuse to upgrade his wallet with this sleek design from Mulberry. Made from oak-toned flat grain leather, it has eight card slots and can also be monogrammed with initials for a thoughtful finishing touch. ￡245, Mulberry Advertisement Hector Saxe Leather Chess Set Trust Hector Saxe to create a chess set that doubles as a design centrepiece. Made in Paris from buffalo leather, it has a matching interior inlay complete with 32 boxwood and rosewood chess pieces. ￡2,395, Hector Saxe at Abask Derek Rose Tartan Merino Wool Dressing Gown If his dressing gown is approaching its second decade, Christmas is the prime time to intervene. We recommend this wool design from the London-based brand Derek Rose, which is printed in a wintry tartan. ￡495, Derek Rose Toteme cashmere beanie If we were to trust anyone to make a beanie that cleverly straddles cool and cosy, it would be the Scandinavians. The Scandi brand Toteme has put a festive spin on its pure-cashmere style with this vibrant red ribbed knit. ￡170, Toteme at Mr Porter Studio Nicholson Miska wool sweater Studio Nicholson's verdant V-neck will look cool thrown over a white T-shirt and relaxed jeans or dressed up with tailored black trousers and loafers. ￡450, Studio Nicholson at Mytheresa Auralee check fringed cashmere scarf Why not introduce him to a new favourite brand this Christmas? May we recommend Auralee, the Japanese label founded in 2015, whose understated staples — from tailored overcoats and knits to relaxed-fit trousers — are anything but basic. This plush pure-cashmere scarf is a case in point. ￡340, Auralee at Mytheresa Advertisement Big Green Egg XL with IntEGGrated Nest If he fancies himself a barbecue connoisseur, get him excited for the summer months with the Ferrari of barbecues: the Big Green Egg. It grills, roasts, bakes, slow-cooks and smokes, and features patented airflow technology that allows it to reach 300C in just 20 minutes. ￡2,500, Big Green Egg at Borough Kitchen L'Atelier du Vin Wine Lover's Curiosities Cabinet Give him everything he needs to achieve the perfect pour with this accessory kit from L'Atelier du Vin. It includes three types of corkscrew for both old and new bottles, a foil cutter, a clever metal stopper that helps prevent oxidation in open bottles, and a tasting diary. Then sit back, pour yourself a glass and enjoy the fruits of his new hobby. ￡1,850, L'Atelier du Vin at Mr Porter Bodum x Moma Bistro espresso machine Coffee machines can be an eyesore, but this bold Bodum design was created in collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art Design Store. It isn't all style and no substance, either: it has a built-in stainless-steel burr grinder with 30 adjustable settings for fresh bean-to-cup dosing, alongside barista-style controls. ￡699, Bodum x Moma at Selfrigdes Florentine Chopper stainless-steel knife Florentine's knife is inspired by the Japanese santoku , which traditionally has a shorter blade than a traditional chef's knife, with a flat edge. This design also has a pronounced tip that allows for extra finesse and intricate cutting. Aspiring chefs will be suitably impressed. ￡230, Florentine Kitchen at Selfridges Bang & Olufsen Beo Grace wireless earbuds Bang & Olufsen's wireless earbuds combine a jewellery-grade polished-aluminium design with advanced acoustic features. These include three microphones in each earbud that measure the ear canal's unique acoustics, and a battery designed to last four times longer than the typical industry standard. ￡1,000, Bang & Olufsen at Selfridges Swarovski Optik professional binoculars These binoculars put traditional birdwatching equipment to shame. They offer an extra-wide field of view for easy tracking, as well as field-flattener lenses that keep the entire image in crisp focus. Their ergonomic shape also makes them comfortable to use for hours. ￡2,880, Swarovski Optik at Selfridges Creed Iris Debonair Creed's newest fragrance blends a traditionally masculine aromatic structure with a soft floral heart of velvety French iris, creating a unique men's scent.
