When preparing for a trip, be it for business or pleasure, decisions on what clothing, shoes and accessories will tag along with you can be tricky. No matter the climate or occasion, when the choices are made you’ll need a stylish suitcase to accompany your travels – and to house your wardrobe for the duration if there’s more than one destination on the list.

Diverse shapes and sizes among the top luggage lines today offer something for every length of trip, including carry-on duffels, swiveling suitcases and all-encompassing trunks. Wherever you’re jetting off to, your suitcase should be as chic as it is secure. These are our picks of the best luxury luggage lines.
Gucci Tian GG Supreme Suitcase
One of the more recognizable signature elements from Gucci during Alessandro Michele’s tenure is the Tian print, which overlays a contemporary print inspired by 18th-century Chinese tapestries and screens atop the brand’s signature GG Supreme canvas. Seen here on a four-wheel suitcase, which looks more like a work of art than a travel accessory, the bag features two nylon-lined interior compartments, padded front zipped pocket and retractable telescoping and leather top handles. In a carry-on size, the Tian GG Supreme Suitcase fits the bill for function, while also ticking the style box with its bright floral pattern and overarching Italian design complemented by refined maple-brown leather trim.
