Centenary ivory extra-deep suitcase with wheels, J.Crew ($1,750) 

When it came to creating the perfect suitcase, J.Crew enlisted a legend—Globe-Trotter, the British luggage label that has been crafting travel pieces since 1897. The collaboration, which birthed the Centenary Collection, a line of lightweight suitcases, recalls vintage travel trunks and the days when voyagers donned their best when journeying by rail, sky, or sea. Lloyd Van Horn, general manager of the Montauk Yacht Club Resort & Marina, explains: “A quality suitcase is not only functional, but also a statement.” 14 Main St., East Hampton, 324-5034
