Your chic companion

Konfekt is a clever, elegant quarterly magazine launched in 2020 by the creators of Monocle. Edited between Zürich and London, and printed in Germany, it is a deep dive into the worlds of fashion, craft, travel and design.

With a focus on unhurried reportage - and plenty of long, lingering suppers and brisk reviving swims - Konfekt is a celebration of spirited hosts and hikes in the wilds and beautiful things made well.

Each issue is brimming with inspiring travel itineraries, tasty recipes and chic seasonal looks.

Keep up to date with all things Konfekt via our equally joyful newsletter and monthly podcast.

With good humour, an exacting eye and a brave spirit, Konfekt celebrates a chic, understated glamour.

The power of jewellery, colour revolution and wearing tweed

There is something about the first long, dark nights of winter that make us crave things that sparkle. It’s perhaps for that reason that we’ve gravitated towards the theme of adornment in this episode. We discuss the history of jewellery with two peerless experts, head to the Dance Reflections festival by Parisian house Van Cleef & Arpels and visit a show exploring the pioneering colour of the Victorian era. Plus: we hear from a historian using objects to retell history through a female gaze and muse on the enduring allure of tweed.
