The countdown to Christmas is well and truly on, which means you’ve probably got gifting on the brain. In fact, it’s likely you’ve ended up here because you’re in search of a special something worthy of gifting that special someone (or, perhaps for inspiration for your own wish list—that’s fine too!) Either way, if you or that difficult-to-buy-for person you’re shopping for is a fashion lover, then you’ve certainly come to the right place. I’ve curated an edit below of the very best (more) affordable designer gift ideas that are guaranteed to get you in the good books.
As a fashion person myself, I can tell you there’s just something extremely exciting about opening up a designer gift on Christmas morning, no matter how big or small it is. I don’t know if it’s the promise of the logo-ed gift wrapping, or the knowledge that you’ve been truly spoilt, but it’s a feeling that’s hard to beat. Of course, we all know that designer buys these days can easily come with price tags in their thousands, which isn’t always a realistic gifting budget. However, the selection of designer gift ideas below all sit neatly under the £500 mark (hence the term ‘affordable’—it’s all relative, of course).
There’s little luxuries ranging from Gucci’s super pretty lipstick to Saint Laurent’s cardholder with that iconic logo that’s bound to impress. There’s beautiful belts from Celine that will make all their outfits feel incredibly fancy, and even designer handbags that shockingly still fall into the under-£500 price bracket, from the likes of Coach and Longchamp. Whatever you choose, I promise you can’t really go wrong. Keep scrolling to see the best affordable designer gift ideas to treat your loved ones (or yourself) to this season…
