Valentine’s Day is less about grand gestures than thoughtful ones. This season, maisons and tastemakers reinterpret romance through craftsmanship, heritage and design—offering gifts and experiences that feel personal, enduring and unmistakably refined. Here are several elevated ways to celebrate love in all its forms.
For the Bag Lover
Dior’s Valentine’s Day selection by Jonathan Anderson elevates the House’s icons—Book Tote, Saddle and Lady Dior—through the floral Revolution Flowers motif, inspired by an 18th‑century emblem. Delicate Doves & Roses sketches, a nod to the 1956 Pastorale dress, appear as embroidered plumetis on the Lady Dior and Lady D-Joy. Finished with refined charms and soft hues of blue and pink, each bag reads as a modern heirloom, where romance and couture craftsmanship intertwine.
For The Fragrance Connoisseur
AMAFFI Perfume House presents three fragrances inspired by love languages—from the bold intensity of Hot Heart to the floral richness of Royal White Diamond and Amor & Psychea. Each is housed in sculptural bottles designed as objets d’art.
For The One Who Treasures Time
Longines’ PrimaLuna collection captures feminine elegance through soft proportions, diamond indexes and thoughtful detailing. The mint blue sunray dial offers a quiet moment of brilliance—timeless, not trend-driven.
For the Sweet-Toothed Sophisticate
Venchi’s limited-edition Valentine’s collection pairs artisanal chocolate with elegant packaging in romantic shades of pink, red and blue. From heart-shaped gift boxes to curated hampers, each bite feels considered and celebratory.
For The Romantic Foodie
At Le Meurice in Paris, Valentine’s Day unfolds through Michelin-starred dining and a once-in-a-lifetime private experience in the Belle Étoile Suite. Gastronomy, views over Paris, and impeccable service—romance, elevated to an art form.
For The Cinematic Lover
At Gio’s at The St. Regis Venice, Valentine’s Day unfolds against the glamour of the Grand Canal. Fresh from its starring role in Emily in Paris, the terrace—home to the now-iconic “Emily and Mindy” table—sets the scene for Italian classics served with unmistakable Venetian allure.
For The One Who Shines
Louis Vuitton’s LV Diamonds collection introduces four new creations, each celebrating the House’s iconic Monogram Flower through the exclusive LV Monogram Star cut. Every gemstone, set in gold or platinum, is meticulously handcrafted to maximize brilliance, while a digital certificate ensures transparency from rough stone to showroom. Modern yet timeless, these rings, hoops, and ear cuffs transform devotion into wearable artistry, where innovation meets heritage.
