If ever you're looking to seriously impress the discerning woman in your life, you'll need a list of the best luxury gifts for her under your nose. Thankfully, you're about to be provided with exactly that.

Shopping for anyone with expensive taste is a task you need to put a lot of thought into, because – while they'll always appreciate anything heartfelt (be it a handmade card or a nice meal out) – it's always a good idea to go all-out if you can afford to. Emphasis on that.

The cost-of-living crisis is ongoing (which is why we've also got a roundup of the best affordable gifts), but if you have been saving to treat someone special, now might be the perfect time to do so. Christmas is only a matter of months away…

A designer bag seems the obvious choice, and a good one at that, but there's even more in the field of lavish gifts to consider this year too. What about an heirloom watch or a lavish coffee machine? If she's more into shoes, then Alaïa's embellished Mary Jane's will go with virtually every outfit this season, while Christian Dior's knee-highs are the winter boots every girl wants.

Luxury comes in all shapes, sizes and price ranges. Whatever it is you want to gift her, and no matter the occasion really, you're sure to find it (or at least some inspo) below. From the treasure troves that are Net-A-Porter, Selfridges, Mytheresa and Harvey Nichols to luxury treats from Prada, Tiffany and Jacquemus, you're spoiled for choice when it comes to spoiling others this year. Keep scrolling.
