Have a chic Chinese New Year with these luxury fashion accessories

Salvatore Ferragamo has released a capsule collection of silk accessories for the Chinese New Year.

To mark the upcoming festivities, designer brands have all released special collections or limited edition designs. From beautiful bags to other chic accessories, they all celebrate the good cheer of the season.

Red is of course, a highlight. As are rat motifs, celebrating the zodiac sign of the upcoming lunar year. Don’t forget your florals too, or the colour gold – which signifies prosperity.

Simply sporty

Moschino’s designs feature cult cartoon Mickey Rat. They comprise menswear and womenswear, as well as accessories in varsity athletic silhouettes.

Luxe carry

The Versace Virtus bag is certainly a fiery stunner. Taking its name from the Roman deity, it symbolises strength and character.

Look bold

The red temples of Tommy Hilfiger’s limited-edition shades celebrate the Chinese symbolism of happiness, success and good fortune.

Go for gold

Saint Laurent has updated its Kate 99 bag with gold-toned hardware and tassel, recalling the decorative lanterns used during the celebrations.

A roaring year

Montblanc’s writing instruments honour the myths of the Eastern world. The dragon that encircles each design speaks of power and courage.

Zodiac significance

To celebrate the Year of the Rat, Fendi has made it a central focus. The men’s crossbody sports a subtle geometric motif of the animal in a corner.

A fresh start

It is, after all, the Spring Festival. Salvatore Ferragamo has created a red silk scarf illustrated with beautiful floral blossoms – perfect for Chinese New Year.
