A Case Of Style

Take off with luxury, and fill your suitcase with the best of global fashion.

Holidays are a chance to experience the extraordinary. With new cities and new friends, you make lifelong memories. Itโ€™s a time to explore, indulge and step into the best version of yourself. That might mean a whole new look โ€” or simply refining your signature style. And so weโ€™ve curated a guide to help you pack the perfect suitcase with pieces from our luxury brands. It’s a case of style: at The Royal Exchange, your journey is just beginning.

First, the case in question. It has to be a TUMI: our resident luggage brand is world-famous for its stylish, functional items that are a must-have for any traveller โ€”ย since 1975. The 19 Degree Lite collection, presented by Lando Norris (pictured above), encapsulates everything we love about this brand. TUMI calls it “uncompromising in every aspectโ€”from material to features. This lightest hardside collection to date allows you to enjoy the freedom of lightness and our signature quality from subway steps to city streets.”

Second, the suit and sunglasses. This August, Sartoria Dei Duchi celebrates summer style with a refined collaboration featuring TBD sunglasses curated by the founder, Fabio (pictured right) โ€” a man who embodies effortless Italian elegance. To mark the partnership, the brand has tailored Fabio a bespoke linen jacket: “crafted from breathable linen with a natural drape and lightly structured silhouette, the jacket reflects the essence of summer, relaxed yet refined.”

You can never pack enough sunglasses, and we love these Tom Davies shades, too โ€” a classic accessory from our resident eyewear brand. “From cocktails by the pool to golden hour in the city, the Jen sunglasses are made to stand out,” says the brand. “Crafted in green layered with blue crystal acetate and finished with rose gold details โ€” this is your summer signature.” Discover Jen Col.2176 and more at Tom Davies’s Royal Exchange boutique.

Next, the accessories. For these, look no further than Aspinal Of London. We particularly love this handcrafted Camera Crossbody Bag in black pebble, made from the finest full-grain leather โ€” and with Aspinal’s iconic British craftsmanship. “Elegant and understated, our iconic Camera Crossbody Bag is perfect for everyday wear,” says the brand. “This compact and lightweight crossbody bag will be a seasonal staple for years to come.”

Good times should be remembered. And so the last item we suggest is a pen from the world’s best: Montblanc. The brand’s newest release โ€” the Montblanc StarWalker PolarGreen โ€” is ideal for explorers and adventurers. The brand notes how, “inspired by one of the worldโ€™s most awe-inspiring natural spectacles, this writing instrument collection captures the mesmerising energy and fluidity of the Aurora Borealis that lights up the Earthโ€™s sky.”
