London luxury goods firm Dunhill has a retro-futuristic take on travel this season with its new Aluminum luggage collection. Taking inspiration from leather examples discovered in the Dunhill archive from the Art Deco days of the jet set, the gentleman’s suitcases suggest the concept of future travel in a unique fabrication of polished metal – the sort of thing a dashing aviator like Charles Lindbergh might have owned. Aluminum gives an ultra modern appearance to three different sized pieces, from briefcase dimensions to a large traditional suitcase size. The hard-wearing cases have been stripped back to their metal fabrication and updated to make them incredibly light and practical for use today, and each piece features the Alfred Dunhill monogram. Available in very limited quantities, they’re priced from $1,165 to $1,305. – From Luxist
