With her fashion-forward design approach, Los Angeles-based interiors expert Brigette Romanek has amassed a chic, stylish portfolio that includes spectacular private residences on both the East and West Coasts for A-list clients like Gwyneth Paltrow and Misty Copeland. Additionally, she’s conceived beautiful commercial spaces for luxury brands such as Audemars Piquet and glamorous hot spots, like chef Ludo Lefebvre’s Petit Trois.
Beyond her work with interiors, the trendsetter lends her creative vision to a multitude of home collections, including her recent collaboration with Loloi. Often looking to art to inspire her work—much of it featured in her debut monograph Livable Luxe (Chronicle Chroma)—Romanek is of course equally imaginative in curating a holiday shopping list. Here, she selects perfect presents for anyone looking to celebrate the festive season in high style.

“I want this Frame reformer. Let me be honest, I like it because it’s an incredible workout for me being so on the go and it’s challenging to sometimes get to the gym, but it’s also gorgeous!”
