A suite of cases by The Luxury Collection x Globe-Trotter
A suitcase says a lot. You can always play an anthropological game at a luggage carousel in an airport by looking at the suitcases that come out. Here comes a nondescript black one. Here comes a backpack. Here comes a lurid case. Here comes one from the bargain section. And then one comes out that immediately arrests the attention. A smart, sharp luggage piece with an aristocratic air. Chances are it’s a Globe-Trotter suitcase.
Known as a luxury luggage brand, the British firm is also known for it’s regular collaborations with fashion houses and this month, The Luxury Collection, purveyors of exceptional travel experiences. The partnership makes perfect sense, encapsulated in four unique pieces of luggage inspired by The Luxury Collection’s hotels and resorts in Greece – Santa Marina in Mykonos, The Romanos in Costa Navarino, Hotel Grande Bretagne in Athens and Vedema and Mystique in Santorini.
On the outside, the characteristic Greek palette of blue and white dominates, accented by touches of black and the distinctive Globe-Trotter handmade leather trim and gold hardware. The inside is where designer and creative director Sofia Sanches de Betak’s deft hand truly shines – a colourfully illustrated scavenger map of the location each of the pieces was inspired by, highlighting the hidden treasures and off-the-beaten-path experiences experienced by de Betak when she explored the properties in Greece.
The collaboration is available for sale this month.
