OROTON’s Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide

Oroton holiday gift guide

This was certainly the year that changed everything: the way we work, travel and come together, testing our resilience and optimism. In that sense, it feels all the more important to put some sort of celebratory stamp on the happier times: the holiday season is the perfect opportunity to indulge those dearest to you with a token of love or a thoughtful gift at Christmas, a chance to treat family and friends to a surprising treasure or personalised trinket, it’s all about the mood shift. Here, a few of our favourite gift ideas to celebrate the ones we love.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Sun-Seeker

For the travel enthusiast, conjure memories of sun-kissed days away or lazy afternoons by the sea via our edit of blissful pieces – from a relaxed Jersey Tank beach Dress in a fresh and surprising shade of Lemon Zest or our elevated straw bag, the Madison tote, accented with the house’s signature hardware and finished with leather trim, to our floral bucket hat or statement Sebastian Beach Towel crafted from luxuriously soft-to-touch terry towelling in one of the season’s standout colours, Mango.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Eco-Adventurer

For the conscious consumer, our new Zoey collection is a salute to the future – launching this month, the line-up takes in everything from sustainable beauty cases, coin purses and water bottle holders to chic pet collars and leads. Our new Audun collection is also ethically crafted, its recycled coated canvas and signature logo accents prove the ultimate carry-everywhere statements, a nod to old-school classicism. That’s an idea which ties in perfectly with the season’s signature Matchbox print, the Creative Director’s nod to vintage nostalgia, seen here on the crisp linen Camp shirt in a soft Jute hue.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Homebody

We’re all for creating a pampering and cosy environment at home and to do this, why not spoil your loved one with a set of striped pyjamas made from luxurious lightweight cotton? Add to that, one of our exclusive new candles – each scent captures an uplifting mood such as Campfire, a warm seductive fragrance, featuring evocative notes of Leather and Anisic with the exoticism of Musk, Woody Oriental, Vanilla and Sandalwood. Explore, too, our Pascale Notebook collection, comprising luxurious leather stationary holdalls in shades of Rose Glow, Peach Fizz, Brandy and Black, fashioned from pebble leather and delicately finished with a signature foil embossed logo.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Socialite

For your sister or niece who studies the runway with an expert eye, we suggest effortless glamour via the Detailed Twill Dress, a sculptural, statement-making tunic made in pure cotton and finished with lace embellishment. Match it to architectural accessories – the XL Pierre Day Bag, the Kari Mini Bag accented with signature hardware or the petite Fleur Lipstick Keyring for pocket-sized luxury on the go. Then there’s the Luna Letter Charm Keyring for a chic and personalised touch, or add in some sparkle: she’ll adore this pair of shoulder-dusting Indie Statement Earrings – and admire your sense of fashion fun, too.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Entrepreneur

2021 was the year that redefined what we wear to work. With that in mind, we suggest theming your gifts around a neutral palette of warm (and practical) caramel tones – choose a belted Knit Jacket tailored for a relaxed fit in beautiful Italian linen, match it to a chic carryall Muse Day Bag and then why not curate a concise edit of complimentary accessories to go with? Start with the Fleur Charging Tag, an ultra-handy essential. Crafted from smooth leather and detailed with an embossed foil logo, this portable and stylish USB charging port will ensure your friend’s phone battery goes the distance in ultra-discreet style.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Man in your Life

If he’s up early and out the door, our Bailey Gym Bag is a must-have. This roomy carry-all is fashioned from durable drill cotton canvas and features smart organiser pockets and signature brushed gunmetal hardware. Compliment the look with a Carlos Tote Backpack, crafted from durable thick nylon with adjustable back straps, the perfect addition for life on the go. Then there’s a selection of utility-inspired card holders, smart key holders and elegant watch and cufflink holdalls.

WHAT TO BUY FOR:

The Minimalist

Searching for a designer gift for that special someone who possesses a carefully curated wardrobe? We recommend a streamlined edit of sleek accessories and modernist pieces – our belted Robe Jacket is just the ticket, complimented by a pair of statement Wilder sunglasses, silver sculptural wear-everyday Esme earrings or a signature scented candle – the ultimate less is more edit.
