British accessories designer Nadia Minkoff has designed two new travel accessories for duty free retailer Tourvest, to be sold exclusively on the international flights of its airline partners.
Kenya Airways is selling Minkoff’s new travel wallet. The purse’s black mock crocodile leatherette and simple styling should appeal to guys and girls on vacation. Its practical design features pockets and compartments for holding your passport, airline tickets, and foreign currency.
Jetsetters traveling on Virgin Atlantic flights can pick up one of Minkoff’s new Vintage World Map iPad covers. This cute tech case is made from copper colored leatherette embossed with a vintage style world map.
Tourvest’s luxury and gifting buyer Tracy Cilliers said her firm was “delighted” to collaborate again with Nadia Minkoff on the project. The London based designer has worked with Tourvest for many years, and continues to do so because she believes it is “forward thinking and looking for innovation.”
Green fashionistas may be disappointed that the new travel products aren’t made from the natural materials Nadia Minkoff usually favors. However she concedes that “the demands of travelers today call for items to be produced in other materials.” Personally I think that’s selling natural materials a bit short; we’ve seen plenty of green alternatives that are just as tough as synthetics. However Minkoff insists she’s “very happy with the finish” of the new travel accessories.
If the synthetics aren’t getting you down, you can find the new Nadia Minkoff accessories exclusively on selected Kenya Airlines and Virgin Atlantic flights.
