The holiday season inherently evokes a sense of nostalgia, especially for comfortable moments spent indoors. Picture savoring a warm beverage while observing autumn leaves or relaxing by a crackling fire with an engaging book; these cooler months naturally lend themselves to charming experiences. This atmosphere is perfectly captured in the latest partnership between Madewell and The Six Bells, a charming country retreat nestled in the Hudson Valley.

The Six Bells Inn, a creation of Audrey Gelman, draws its interior design inspiration from the fictional English village of Barrow's Green, complete with its own unique characters and settings. This distinctive narrative and aesthetic, imbued with Gelman's storytelling flair, served as the catalyst for the inn's collaborative collection with Madewell. Gelman shared with ELLE.com that from their initial discussions, the Madewell team deeply resonated with the unique world of The Six Bells. Their joint ambition was to craft a collection that transports individuals to a more magical, bygone era, ensuring every item emanated a sense of wonder and brought the cozy spirit of The Six Bells into homes for the festive period.

This exclusive collection, comprising 23 items, seamlessly blends Madewell's relaxed aesthetic with The Six Bells' rustic elegance. It features a diverse array of clothing, accessories, and home decorations, including charming needlepoint ornaments, plush pillows, festive stockings, and toiletry bags adorned with bespoke prints reflecting the inn's interior design. Additionally, the collection offers comfortable pajama sets and even a nightgown, allowing enthusiasts to extend a popular summer trend into the winter holidays. With prices ranging from $17 to $248, there's a wide selection of items perfect for gifting, ensuring delight for anyone who unwraps them.

This special edition collection officially goes on sale on November 12th at 10 a.m. However, readers of ELLE.com are granted early, exclusive access to browse and purchase items from the collection now. Explore the offerings below.
