If I really need more capacity in a carry-on I take a Louis Vuitton Eole 65 which has about 50L capacity. The damier graphite is understated luxury, and there are a lot of really nice design details on the bag that reflect LV's heritage as a luggage company. Don't get the cheaper models without rolling wheels as you will curse the gods walking to a faraway gate in Heathrow or DFW.

Here's a US link but LV is much cheaper and tax free in Europe:
