Valextra's briefcase takes inspiration from this era's modern professionals, both in its practicality and streamlined shape. Made in Italy from pebble-grain leather, it's finished with brushed silver-tone hardware and signature hand-applied 'Costa' piping. Even the inky-black hue has been carefully considered - the brand chooses its shades from a selection of 45 different nuances before settling on the one that feels right.

Wear it with: Canali Blazer, Ermenegildo Zegna Trousers, Canali Sweater, J.M. Weston Loafers.
