Konfekt, Issue 25 – Winter 2026/27

Konfekt is a magazine for Sharp Dressing, Drinking, Dining, Travel and Design from the creators of Monocle.

Edited between Zürich and London, and printed in Germany, it is a rich, sumptuous quarterly publication covering fashion, travel, design, drinking, dining and culture in both English and German.

With good humour, an exacting eye and a brave spirit, Konfekt celebrates a chic, understated glamour, seeks out lesser-known stories and opens closed doors. It’s an ebullient host, a mountain trek, a winter spin on a handsome bike and even a leap into an icy lake (with the promise of a warming Reisetbauer eau de vie).

Edited by Monocle magazine’s senior editor and former Paris editor Sophie Grove and with Marcela Palek as style director, Konfekt also calls on a roster of leading journalists, thinkers and photographers from Germany, Switzerland, France and beyond. Konfekt offers an authoritative voice with wit, wisdom and just the right amount of warmth and wonder.

In this issue:

From the mountain inns in which to hole up for a snowy escape to the scintillating jewels that set the tone of a festive outfit – via recipes at an Austrian Stube for a Christmas feast and a tour on the pistes of the Pyrenees – Konfekt’s new winter issue embodies all the spirit of the season: an embrace of the crisp outdoors and cosy retreats in the enveloping warmth. Follow us as we explore Poland’s trailblazing, cold-proof fashion labels on a wander through Warsaw and head up to Chamonix for chic outfits fit for the peaks. Plus: we journey on horseback (and hit the sauna) in the Faroe Islands, venture to the High North to celebrate the musical tradition of Sami joiking and hop between Strasbourg, Milan and Antwerp for nonpareil gifting. Our jewellery special celebrates the industry’s rising design stars and dives into our long-held fascination with its talismanic power. There are also plenty of long reads and musings on landscape, nature and the art of wintering well to lose yourself into as the nights draw in.
