Giorgio Armani Madre Perla Christmas Collection

It's getting close to the Christmas releases hitting counters and this season, Giorgio Armani is drawing inspiration from the glamorous '30s era for its Madre Perla (which translates to Mother of Pearl) collection. Linda Cantello, Georgia Armani Cosmetics' creative director describes the range as: "Like a 1930s boudoir . . . A touch of lacquer and patinated metals add a sophisticated feel to satiny, pearlescent tones. Delicate shades reminiscent of the silk lingerie of the time." Topping our Wish Lists is the Madre Perla Luxury Face & Eye Palette ($250) which, inspired by Art Deco style, is encased with real Mother of Pearl. And just to up the must-have factor, only 3,000 have been made worldwide. Be sure to get yours.

Giorgio Armani Madre Perla Christmas Collection is available from November 13 at David Jones.
