The holiday season is finally upon us, and in just a week—over here in America, anyway—we’ll be celebrating the long weekend for the Thanksgiving holiday. And whether or not you actually celebrate Thanksgiving (or some iteration of it like Friendsgiving), you might be on the hunt for some last-minute recipes to impress both your guests and family at your upcoming holiday dinner.
To leave your Thanksgiving day with as little stress as possible, we’ve recruited our favorite fashion foodies, from Peter Som to Rachel Antonoff, to share their signature recipes from cocktails to dessert. Some recipes, like those from Christopher John Rogers and Conner Ives, are family traditions dating back generations, meaning that this Thanksgiving, you might just be eating exactly the same dishes as your favorite designer’s family.
For others, their recipes were inspired by the world around them. Jamie Okuma used sage, as the leafy herb is grown as an essential part of Indigenous culture. It also helps that it is the “best compliment to dressing and stuffing,” according to Okuma. Meanwhile, Henry Zankov was inspired by a meal from one of his favorite spots in Venice Beach, Gjelina, for his butternut squash and mint pesto salad.
From Vogue straight to your dinner table, nine designers share their favorite Thanksgiving recipes below.
