Seemingly fathers have everything and often they claim they don’t want anything, so we need to be creative and think hard about what they need. Here are some classic options from the Dolce&Gabbana FW 2013 collection which will make any father swoon.

For the businessman father, an elegant Italian leather briefcase in textured calfskin leather is the perfect option. Useful and long lasting, this briefcase is a timeless essential. Not as easy as it might appear, fragrance is a thoughtful and personal gift that every child should give to their father at least once. Make 2012 the year you venture into fragrance with the Dolce&Gabbana Pour Homme fragrance: with top notes of neroli, which are gutsy and masculine, while the mandarin and bergamot are more sensual.

Give your father a thoughtful ensemble of gifts that he can use immediately on Christmas day. This tweed flat cap may be traditionally Sicilian but it’s a true style statement in the dead of winter. Match the coppola with a pair of super soft calfskin gloves, and your father will be ready for a lovely walk after Christmas lunch.

Ah the joys of receiving a tie for Christmas. A great stocking filler, a tie is always a great gift for both the business dad and the smart casual dad. Opt for a micro printed silk jaquard thin tie for a nice mix of classic and fashion forward. Spruce up your father’s work look with a pair of gold plated bar cuff links. Understated in brushed gold metal, these cuff links work on a simple white shirt or a micro-printed one alike.

Small leather goods are an easy and useful present for your dad for Christmas. In textured calf leather and with elegant and understated designer logo plaques in palladium coloured hardware, a book wallet, a key fob and a credit card sleeve are a beautiful triptych.

Technology is THE gift for Christmas, from the latest smart phones to mini tablets, technology is the most sought after gift this season. Add a pleasant little surprise with the tech with these textured calfskin cases in a demure micro polka dot print.
