Brilliant things to shop from inside
Do we not often, albeit mistakenly, say that the grass is always greener on the other side?...
Christmas, it's THE season of gifts, and doing your Christmas shopping in Brussels, it's hard to beat!
Grand department stores, shops with majestic decorations, prominent Belgian and international brands, artisan workshops... hundreds, if not thousands, of possibilities.
It's the perfect time to make your life a little easier and present you with a list straight from the workshops of our Insiders and their respective brands.
Here are four top gifts in this first selection among the offerings from our Insiders.
A jaw-dropping pair of jeans from the house of DIOR, led by Christophe Cormane. A cozy getaway to watch the snow fall in style at Plaza Brussels, courtesy of our Insider Laurent Dekerf, the general manager of this prestigious establishment. A precious silk kimono for slipping under the sheets from Carine Gilson. And a comfortable yet stunning dress with Edouard Vermeulen and the NATAN house!
Step right up to brilliant shopping—this is just the 1/3 of this Christmas shopping spree in Brussels!
