For those looking to combine comfort, fashion and a touch of exclusivity, we've put together this guide to the must-have essentials in your suitcase.
Winter fashion: Layering is key
When it comes to winter outfits, layering is key. This concept not only provides functionality by adapting to temperature changes during the day or when entering enclosed spaces, but also allows you to play with textures and volumes, achieving a unique look.
- Coats: A good coat is the centrepiece of any winter outfit. This year, the trends point to oversize coats, fur coats, animal print, white and maroon colours or double-sided coats. A wide variety of options to choose from and combine with different garments.
- Chunky knitted jumpers: Ideal for warmth and texture. You can opt for neutral tones such as beige or grey for a timeless style or go for prints and different colours to stand out.
- Oversize scarves: In addition to being practical, they are an accessory that adds dynamism to the look. If you wear a neutral outfit, play with colours and prints to give a touch of personality.
Accessories: The essential accessory
Any trip needs planning and organisation to pack everything you need in your suitcase. And choosing the right accessories can make the difference between an ordinary look and an unforgettable one. Here are some must-have accessories:
- Wool hats: A well-chosen hat not only protects you from the cold, but can also be the perfect finishing touch to your outfit.
- Leather gloves: Classic and functional, they are a must for any winter getaway.
- Backpacks and bags: Choose a compact yet spacious bag or backpack that is practical for carrying essentials and maintains a versatile design for both formal and casual outfits.

Packing tips
One of the keys to travelling without sacrificing fashion is to have a well-planned suitcase. Here are some tips on how to organise your suitcase and take care of your clothes:
-
Roll your clothes: This trick reduces wrinkles in your clothes. It's perfect for jumpers, T-shirts and scarves.
-
Use organiser bags: Separating your clothes into bags by category or day helps you find what you need quickly and maintain order throughout your trip.
-
Protect your footwear: Carry your sneakers and other shoes in specific bags to keep them separate from the rest of your clothes.
-
Pack versatile basics: Choose items that can be combined in a variety of ways, such as black trousers, jeans or a knitted jumper in neutral tones.
-
Scent your suitcase: Place scented sachets or small bottles of your favourite fragrance in your luggage. This will keep your clothes smelling fresh and pleasant.
-
Include a small fashion emergency kit: Add a portable steam iron, a lint remover and a sewing kit to your suitcase to solve any unforeseen problems quickly.
- Don't forget your accessories: Dedicate a special space for your accessories. Sometimes they are easily forgotten, but they are essential to complete your outfits with style.
- Prioritise quality over quantity: It's better to carry a few key items that you know will be useful and that you can wear with confidence, such as the Brown 929 sneakers from the Chromatic Collection, than a lot of options that you won't end up wearing.
Winter offers a unique opportunity to explore the world with a different perspective, from big cities to snowy getaways, every destination has its own charm. With these recommendations, you'll be ready to enjoy a winter getaway with elegance, practicality and the right essentials in your suitcase.
