You'll find everything from gin to napkins, candles to cocktail glasses, all chosen by the Livingetc team for being super stylish. Good design needn't cost the earth, and this is all very good design.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it's that we all need to embrace our own inner Dandy to find a little joy - why shouldn't this pocket square be unisex?
