Welcome to our inaugural Travel Issue, the destination for those who seek to travel on the insider track. The months of June through August are when most of us tend to jet off, and to help you prepare for another year of travel, we're debriefing you on everything you'll need to make your next trip your chicest yet: a guide to the lesser-known (but just as coveted) Mediterranean destinations, the most noteworthy new hotels opening around the world—from India to Downtown Manhattan—and the download on why luxury farmstays are quickly becoming the hottest new travel trend.
As for once you've touched down? We have the intel on the exclusive beauty and wellness treatments you'll want to skip the hotel spa for, in addition to the renowned boutiques worth making a special pilgrimage to. Speaking of shopping, it wouldn't be a Who What Wear issue if we weren't thinking about our travel wardrobes—think designer buys defining cool vacation style, editor-approved airport outfit formulas, and more. These days, taking a trip is so much more than sightseeing—it's about truly immersing yourself in your surroundings. So unzip your suitcases and file your PTO requests, because after you dive in, you'll want to be going places.
