You have already celebrated one new year. Now you get a second chance for a fresh start: as of Sunday, January 22, the Lunar New Year begins with the Year of the Rabbit. Associated with the lunar calendar, it marks the first new moon, with festive gatherings occurring among cultures in East and Southeast Asia and beyond. Many start it with gatherings full of food and drink, new clothes and gifts; in particular, brands such as Fendi, Bottega Veneta and Tatcha are having fun with unique limited edition collections made especially for the occasion. We asked a few people who will be welcoming the Lunar New Year for their favorite gifts. Here’s what Daniel Martin, Jin Soon Choi, Chriselle Lim and more have to offer—and some things we’re expecting ourselves.
