Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and with it comes the annual avalanche of hearts, roses, and trite messaging. But if you’re looking for curated wardrobe updates that cut through the noise, these Valentine’s Day capsule collections offer a more thoughtful take on the occasion—capturing the spirit of romance without slipping into tired tropes.
At Dior, Jonathan Anderson leans into classic femininity with a collection of pieces that spotlight the delicate Revolution Flowers print in pastel shades. Elsewhere, brands like Acne Studios and Burberry approach love from a modern angle, favouring clean lines, subtle statements, and a cooler sensibility. At leather-goods maestros Furla and Pedro, a carefully considered lineup of accessories rounds out the edit, delivering a fresh, contemporary spin on romance that feels both wearable and enduring. Read on for GRAZIA Singapore’s roundup of the chicest collections to reach for this Valentine’s Day.
Dior
Does Jonathan Anderson ever take a day off? After presenting three runway collections and a stunning haute couture debut within the past year, the Dior creative director now releases a curated selection of accessories ahead of Valentine’s Day. The Dior Valentine’s Day capsule collection is unapologetically feminine, calling out to the girls who want a soft life and aren’t ashamed to admit it. The delicate Revolution Flowers print, originally introduced by Maria Grazia Chiuri for the Dioramour capsule collection, is front and centre. For those still championing the coquette aesthetic, opt for the Saddle bag and Book Totes, which are emblazoned with the charming print in a pale blush pink.
Acne Studios
The Acne Studios Valentine’s Day edit is for the cynics with a heart of gold—sweet enough to draw you in, but just aloof enough to keep you guessing. The chic capsule collection includes new releases, as well as updates to iconic silhouettes like the Camero shoulder bag line (now in lovely shades of dusty denim blue). The stars of the show, however, are the all-new ready-to-wear pieces that come emblazoned with a cheeky “I Feel You” slogan in quotation marks—on baby tees and baseball caps alike, they’ll make for a perfect low-stakes date night at home.
Burberry
At Burberry, the season of love is all about celebrating the warmth of everyday romance. Their charming Valentine’s Day campaign stars British model Jean Campbell and American artist Orfeo Tagiuri—longtime Friends of the House and a real-life couple—in vignettes capturing moments of romance in the city. The collection itself is similarly enchanting, positing that love is about quiet moments of attention and warmth. Think custom details on scarves and sweaters, with embroidered initials peeking out from a hem; or iconic codes like the Burberry check and trench coat given a feminine flair.
Furla
Furla’s V-day offering is short and sweet, bringing their classic blend of beauty and practicality to a considered capsule edit. The Roxie bucket bag is a familiar Furla silhouette, but in a vibrant M1 Red, it could add a pop of whimsy and romance to an everyday look. Similarly, the Allegra padded heart charm brings a perfect touch of vibrance without making too strong a statement, for those who prize subtlety.
Pedro
At first glance, Pedro’s Valentine’s Day collection doesn’t seem like it has a thing to do with the season of love. Their nod to romance doesn’t come with a firetruck red palette or an abundance of flowers, but in a tribute to the form of love itself, grounded in function. The Heart shoulder bag is the anchor of the collection, offering a sculpturally cool take on the motif in shades of pink, yellow, or black.
