Hint: It's called Italist.

Aside from the soft-sand beaches, centuries-old architecture, and sophisticated sense of fashion, one of the most persuasive reasons to visit Europe is the exchange rate, which often favors the EU over the U.S. That said, booking a trip across the Atlantic with the sole purpose of saving on luxury purchases doesn't make a whole lot of sense. That's where Italist comes in. "All products are sold at Italian retail pricing, which is on average 40 percent lower than prices around the world," says Diego Abba, Italist’s Venetian founder and CEO. There's also four-day business shipping, which makes shopping on Italist hard to resist.

Convenience and Italian pricing aren't even the best part, though. There's currently a sweeping summer sale with up to 60 percent off beloved Italian fashion houses, including Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, and Etro. Of course, as shopping editors who love a good sale, we peeped the home goods section of the sale, and let us just say the savings are good. So if you’ve needed a good excuse to infuse your home with some luxurious finds, you've come to the right place at the right time.

That said, sifting through the hundreds of pieces can be challenging, so we tapped Abba for his expert recommendations. It's an understatement to say he knows the market: "I've been working to bridge together the worlds of technology and luxury fashion—worlds that often struggle to understand one another—through the creation of Italist in 2014," he says. And for the past nine years, Italist has been bringing the most beautiful things—including homeware—to the rest of the world.

Dolce & Gabbana is famous for its bold and colorful patterns, all of which feel utterly Italian. This one, the relatively new blue-and-white Mediterraneo, is one of our favorites—especially because it's on the subtler side. This cotton towel set, which includes two hand towels, two washcloths, and one bath towel, is so luxurious that even displaying one of the washcloths on your vanity makes your whole space feel like an Italian spa.

Carhartt, which was founded by Hamilton Carhartt in 1889, is better known for its collection of cool-looking workwear and outdoor gear, but as of late the American brand has seriously upped its home goods selection, starting with this ceramic mug. In fact, the pieces are so chic that Carhartt is rising in the luxury space, making us shopping editors obsessed. We also happen to think this makes for a fabulous Father's Day gift.

When the late Virgil Abloh created his label, he was sure to infuse as many of his iconic symbols‚ including the arrows, into his home-specific collection. Because it's mohair, it is extremely soft and cozy, so feel free to drape it over the back of your sofa and break it out on chilly evenings.

Though Market is a cult favorite among streetwear fans, it may be a little less famous to anyone outside Los Angeles, where the brand was founded in 2016. This fuzzy pillow is a perfect representation of the brand: It's playful and young but doesn't sacrifice that coveted sense of West Coast style.

For the Cozy

Last but not least, the piece that every Italian fashion appreciator wants: the iconic Versace bathrobe. Feel-wise, it's a classic cotton terry cloth robe, but what makes it luxurious is the ages-old Versace accents, which come in the form of the Barocco print on the belt, cuffs, and pockets.
