Gifts For Fashion Lovers (that aren’t clothes!)

Christmas is just one month away (where on earth did the year go?), and to save you from panicking in the days leading up, it’s probably best to start pulling together all the gifts you might want to buy. Let’s be honest, purchasing a present for a fashion lover is never easy. One of the worst feelings in the world is buying them an item of clothing and it doesn’t go down well because either it doesn’t fit them (ooh, always awkward) or just isn’t their style. 

To help save your blushes, perhaps it’s a safer idea to not buy clothes unless the person you’re buying for has specifically hinted/asked for it and you 100% know their sizing. In light of that, we’ve collated a list of presents (that aren’t specifically Christmas related) for your fashion-loving friend, parent or partner that should, hopefully, always go down a treat (and not completely break the bank!)

The Catwalk Collection

If they’re a fan of runway collections or one of the collection's specific designer brands, they will be over the moon with one of these collectors’ books. The current selection from Thames & Hudson features Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent, Vivienne Westwood and Versace. Each book showcases thousands of outfits, accessories, beauty looks and set designs from each brand’s runway shows through the years.

Vogue Magazine Subscription

It’s always particularly lovely to give someone the gift that keeps on coming, and you can do that by gifting someone a Vogue magazine subscription! They also currently have a trial offer deal for only £1.

Gift Card

Of course, you don’t necessarily need to get them a gift card from Selfridges as most department stores will offer one! Perhaps you don’t know this person too well and are yet to figure out their personal tastes, or you just know they’ll always choose better than you (which is totally okay!)

Perfume Set

Pretty much everyone loves perfume, and yet everyone has their own specific perfume tastes so why not allow them to discover a new favourite fragrance with a set of minis. A plus side to this gift is that you can get both very expensive sets as well as some more affordable ones!

Fashion History Book

A fashion history enthusiast will always appreciate a new book to add to their collection (speaking from personal experience). This book from Taschen takes you through the spectacular collection of the Kyoto Costume Institute and covers outerwear, underwear, footwear, accessories and more.

Biography

Sticking with books, you can guarantee that a fashion-based biography or autobiography will be met with glee! Anna by Amy Odell deep dives into the often illusive life of Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and is packed full of interviews by those who know her best.
