With the holiday season drawing near, just a week away from the American Thanksgiving celebration, many are seeking exquisite culinary creations to delight their guests and loved ones. This year, to alleviate the holiday stress, a selection of esteemed fashion gourmands, including Peter Som and Rachel Antonoff, have generously provided their unique and cherished recipes, encompassing everything from festive cocktails to decadent desserts.
A significant number of these recipes are deeply rooted in family heritage, such as those shared by Christopher John Rogers and Conner Ives, tracing back through generations. This Thanksgiving, it's possible you could be savoring the very same dishes that grace the tables of these prominent designers' families. Conversely, other contributors found their inspiration from the world around them; Jamie Okuma, for instance, highlights the significance of sage in Indigenous culture, noting its perfect complement to dressing and stuffing, while Henry Zankov's creation, a butternut squash and mint pesto salad, was born from a culinary experience at Gjelina in Venice Beach.
From Vogue's culinary collection directly to your festive dinner, these nine designers' favorite Thanksgiving recipes promise to add a touch of elegance and personal history to your holiday spread. Each dish reflects a unique blend of tradition, innovation, and personal stories, inviting you to share in their gastronomic journey and create new, cherished memories around your own table.
These shared recipes are more than just food; they are an invitation to experience the warmth of tradition, the joy of innovation, and the spirit of togetherness that defines the holiday season. They remind us that food, much like fashion, can be a profound expression of culture, creativity, and connection, bringing people closer and enriching our lives with every shared meal.
