· Travel Bag: “Travel Light, Be Heavy” + Mask: “I’m Out,” made for jetsetters who truly immerse themselves in their destinations, and as a result always need that precious sleep on the plane
· Travel Bag: “Where to Next?” + Mask: “Wheels Up”, perfect for global explorers who are always seeking out their next adventure
“Lingua Franca is an overarching thread that allows people to connect no matter where they are in the world, and The Luxury Collection embodies this through their stunning hotels that permits travelers to gain a profound understanding of destinations, no matter where they are in the world,” said Rachelle Hruska MacPherson, CEO and Founder of Lingua Franca. “For me, this was the perfect collaboration as both brands help to tell the same story and bring people of all cultures, beliefs, and backgrounds together by creating an opportunity to connect through a common language.”
“Rachelle shares our passion for bringing people together through a desire to connect with local culture, but also because she embodies the courageous spirit, exceptional talent, and love for exploration that all of our avid travelers share,” said Anthony Ingham, Global Brand Leader, The Luxury Collection. “This collaboration was a natural one, as Lingua Franca believes in The Luxury Collection’s core passions, and Rachelle continually strives to connect people through her designs.”
