As the adjective luxury gets bandied about with increasing abandon, so the original arbiters of luxury seek ever more extreme ways of demonstrating their true credentials. Valextra, the Milanese luggage brand that since 1937 has been responsible for the majority of the finest bags in existence, has recently pushed the boat out with its Autumn Winter collection.
The bags themselves are as exquisite as ever of course, but it’s the method of viewing them that qualifies their status as extreme luxury. For five days only, from 14 to 19 May, the collection is available for viewing at Harrods’ exclusive By Appointment personal shopping service.
Scheduling an appointment just to see the new collection is certainly a novel exercise in verifying luxury status but then Valextra is a brand that’s continually sought to push boundaries in the luxury field. Alongside the standard collection, Valextra will also show pieces that have never been seen before and any bespoke or made-to-order items can be commissioned in a private consultation courtesy of the By Appointment service.
