Long gone are the days of steamer trunks and head-to-toe airport couture, instead replaced by hassle-free luggage and accessories. Lame! Where have all the glamorous jetsetters gone? To celebrate globetrotting fashion, Tumi joined up with Anna Sui to launch a line of signature floral print luggage. In addition to the patterned carryalls, Tumi and Sui paired with Lonelyleap to bring Sui's travel testimonials to life through film, exploring how to pack and fly in style. So, how does Sui prep for her travels to Australia, Egypt, and everywhere in between? At last night's #TumiCaseStudies screening, the designer told Mickey Boardman, "There are certain security blanket things you always need to carry with you. I always feel like I have to have a good book. I may not ever even open it, but I have to bring it along!" Glad we're not the only ones occasionally pulling that faux-lit move. Another pearl of travel wisdom from Sui? "Streamline your packing choices, and stick to one color." Amen, Anna.
