WHERE TO DRINK AND EAT
By Stanislav Kireev, Moscow local and Chivas Master
If you’re looking for creative cocktails, then head straight to the Mercedes bar. Order a Red Passion with Chivas and take in the unforgettable views from the 31st floor. Aist Cafe is a great place to visit at any time of the year but I love it during the summer for brunches on the terrace.

WHAT TO WEAR
By Mr Porter, the destination for men’s style
Muscovites aren’t shy when it comes to expressing their luxurious tastes. Two things define Moscow’s aesthetic – the elements and money. On the latter, Muscovites literally wear their salaries on their sleeves so don’t be shy in your style of dress. To be both warm and chic, opt for outerwear in interesting fabrics such as Givenchy’s shearling, leather and neoprene jacket or Loro Piana’s suede bomber. They should set tongues wagging.
WHAT TO PACK
By James Fisher, Globe-Trotter
If you’re going to be hanging out with the Oligarchs, then only the best will do. I recommend the Globe-Trotter bespoke service, which is available by appointment only at the Albemarle Street flagship store. In the comfort of the bespoke lounge, with access to an array of materials and inspiration, you’ll be guided through the bespoke process, resulting in a suitcase handmade exclusively for you
WHERE TO STAY
By Stanislav Kireev, Moscow local and Chivas Master
Perhaps one of the most luxurious hotels in Moscow, the Ritz Carlton presents an experience like no other.
