When you ask a fashion or beauty editor if there are any products they’re currently obsessed with, you better be ready to take notes. With inboxes inundated with news about all the latest launches, samples to drool over at photoshoots and products to test drive, you can trust these professionals to sift through the sea of knitwear, handbags and hair products, and report on only the best. (And hint, hint: these editor gift picks make exquisite presents to give and receive this holiday season). Here, FASHION’s intrepid team of shopping-loving editors share their very favourite new products (and experiences) of 2022, from designer purses and sculptural jewellery to the most special lipstick and unforgettable spa sojourns.
Balloon Pumps
($1,550, Loewe)
“I’ve been obsessed with these shoes since they came out on the runway in March. As an avid shoe girl (same, Carrie, same), these heels are fun and absurd, yet surprisingly wearable because of the classic shape of the pump. And it doesn’t help that I’m seeing them on all the cool girls on social. So if anyone wants to gift me these dreamy shoes, I will love you forever.”
