Patricia Urquiola's Packing Checklist - Carry On | Travel + Leisure

Patricia Urquiola

The architect and designer opens her (well-edited) suitcase.

?The less I pack, the more relaxed I feel,? says the Spanish-born, Milan-based designer, known for her punchy Modernist style in hotels from Puerto Rico (W Retreat & Spa ? Vieques Island) to Barcelona (Mandarin Oriental). ?I?ve lost my luggage several times, so I only take a carry-on??usually a well-worn Globe-Trotter cabin bag with leather trim (price upon request) and a roomy C?line tote (from $2,400). Whether she is traveling to Berlin (where she is working on the Das Stue hotel), Istanbul, or S?o Paulo, Brazil, Urquiola chooses a simple look that can be dressed up or down. One fail-safe outfit: a vintage Marni jacket, V-neck sweater from Cos ($87), and slightly faded Acne jeans ($250). Accessories include comfortable Robert Clergerie brogues ($495) and a Rolex Air-King watch. ?Telling time using my cell phone just isn?t as reliable.?

What?s in Her Bag:

?A reversible silk and wool scarf by Pierre-Louis Mascia is great for converting day to evening wear, and doubles as a wrap.?

?I pack Prada heels and jewelry in case I need to make a quick change in the taxi for a work party.?

?Before getting off the plane, I apply YSL?s lash-lengthening Volume Effet Faux Cils mascara and Chanel Teint Innocence face powder. They?re my armor.?
