For this week’s Don’t Dillydally, we’ve rounded up a range of newly released products we’re particularly excited about, including Pop Art phone cases, Jil Sander’s debut fragrance line, and a delightful Fishwife Valentine’s Day gift set.
Dusen Dusen Hampers
If you’re tired of your dreary laundry basket, Dusen Dusen added canvas hampers to its lineup of playful-yet-sophisticated homewares. They come in three cheery patterns — marigold, scallop, and raspberry — and can hold up to 88 liters.
For the design-minded pet owners, Boll & Branch now makes dog beds. Both the cover and fill are made with recycled materials, and they come in three different sizes and colors.
We’re big fans of New York–based ceramicist MacKenzie-Childs for everything from housewarming gifts to napkin rings. Their recently added Mocha Check collection includes tea kettles, dinnerware, linens, and décor in this new neutral colorway.
Telfar x MoMA Design Store
Telfar, the so-called “Bushwick Birkin,” made its debut at MoMA this week. Its new Tyvek shopping bags come in three colors — brown, silver, and black — and are available exclusively at the MoMA Design Store.
Cou Cou Valentine’s Day Collection
Cou Cou, known for its coquette-ish basics (and our favorite baby tees), released a corset and balconette dress as part of its Valentine’s Day collection. Both pieces are made with organic cotton pointelle and are available in black, white, and cherry red.
Fishwife x Bixby Chocolates
If your Valentine is a tinned-fish lover, Fishwife has you covered. The brand’s gift set is complete with some of its best sellers (albacore tuna, smoked rainbow trout, and sweet and spicy smoked salmon) plus a delightful tin of chocolate sardines made in partnership with Bixby Chocolate.
Ghia x Alice Mushrooms
Another excellent foodie gift: Ghia’s crunchy hazelnut spread made in partnership with functional mushroom brand Alice. Made with a blend of ingredients like cordyceps, horny goat weed extract, and ashwaghanda extract, it’s said to “inspire play, presence, and intimacy.” The shipping cutoff to receive by Valentine’s Day is February 7, and all of the profits support Los Angeles wildfire relief.
This week, Casetify dropped a collection of Pop Art tech accessories in partnership with the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. My favorite of the bunch: this banana-shaped case that you “peel” to access your phone’s charging port.
Continuing the theme of fun pocket-size items, Edie Parker released a line of bejeweled lighter cases. It comes as the sleeve alone or with a convertible chain that could be used as a belt or crossbody.
Jil Sander Fragrance
Minimalist clothing brand Jil Sander ventured into the perfume world yesterday. Its first fragrance collection, Olfactory Series 1, includes six unisex scents that range from fresh and floral to woody and smoky.
In time to help moisturize winter skin, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Idriss teamed up with Canopy on a limited-edition humidifier and three calming aromas. Senior editor Crystal Martin has the portable humidifier and says it keeps her skin and hair from feeling shriveled.
Calpak Terra Carry-On
Calpak has expanded its line of suitcases with this new soft-sided carry-on. It’s made with the same material as its best-selling travel duffel, which I have personally, and I can vouch for its durability. It comes in four of the brand’s classic colorways: white, black, light green, and light purple.
