"Your personality and your fashion really come hand in hand," Issa Pressman told Preview during Best Dressed List 2024 interview. And basing it on Issa's closet staples alone, it can be easily surmised that she's someone who invests in style, but also does so practically.
While she may have a highly covetable designer collection, her Designer Faves are making a case for versatile pieces that can feel like multiple items instead of just one, with designs she can easily integrate into her 'fit, whatever her sartorial mood might be. It's all about getting your money's worth and making every centavo of your splurge work for you, after all!
Issa Pressman's Favorite Designer Items
1. Bottega Veneta Jodie Bag
Issa starts off her Designer Faves video with her Jodie bag. She says the Bottega Veneta design is "so her," with the signature intrecciato weave and the soft leather that radiates a bohemian yet totally elegant vibe.

"If you know me, I love making the most out of all my stuff," Issa shares before she demonstrates all the ways she can carry this Prada bag. Referring to girl math, the 29-year-old raves about how she was able to get ROI on this purchase because of the many different ways to style it.

3. Maison Margiela Tabi Mary Jane Shoes
While there's no denying the Tabi's appeal, there's actually a very specific reason as to why Issa adores her Mary Janes. "The reason why I love [my] Margielas is because my feet are actually very rectangular, so the shape of this is actually very perfect for me," she reveals, "It gives more space for my weird-looking toes."

4. Casablanca Laurel Oval Sunglasses
Aside from its unique design that melds sporty, preppy, and natural elements together, Issa cites that the actual shopping experience behind these Casablanca frames is what makes her very fond of these sunglasses. She got it with a friend and her boyfriend, James Reid.

5. Dior Rose Céleste Medallion Necklace
Speaking of her beau, Issa's final item was actually James' first gift to her! "This is one of my favorite necklaces," she reveals, "I wear this every day because it's actually the first gift [from] my boyfriend." While truly sentimental, Issa also likes that it's reversible, allowing her to match it easily with any ensemble.
